The FS2000 is the semiauto civilian version of FN’s F2000 bullpup rifle. It was designed for military use, but contracts have been well below FN’s hopes – only Slovenia has decided to adopt it as a standard service weapon (several other nations have bought small quantities for specialized uses).
Being a swoopy-looking black polymer rife, it isn’t the sort of thing I’m normally drawn to. But…attitudes can change. It’s a very comfortable rifle to shoot, and internally it borrows heavily from the AR-18, which is a long-time favorite of ours.
At Forgotten Weapons I think the most interesting guns out there are the most obscure ones. I try to search out experimental and prototype weapons and show you how they work, in addition to more conventional guns that you may not have heard of before. You’re much more likely to find a video on the Cei Rigotti or Webley-Fosbery here than an AR or Glock. So, do you want to learn about something new today? Then stick around!
