Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the FN PS90 a bullpup, and how does that affect handling?
A bullpup design places the action and magazine behind the trigger group, allowing for a full-length barrel in a significantly shorter overall package. The FN PS90's 26.23" overall length houses a 16.04" barrel — a combination that would require a much longer traditional rifle. This translates to excellent maneuverability without sacrificing ballistic performance, making it easy to handle in tight spaces while maintaining accuracy at range.
What kind of ammunition does the 5.7x28mm cartridge use, and what is it best for?
The 5.7x28mm is a high-velocity, low-recoil centerfire cartridge originally developed by FN for military and law enforcement use. From a 16" barrel, it offers flat trajectories and effective terminal performance for varmint hunting, range shooting, and personal defense applications. A wide variety of commercial 5.7x28mm ammunition is available from manufacturers including FN, Federal, Speer, and Fiocchi, giving shooters plenty of options for different purposes.
Is the FN PS90 Standard compliant with California's assault weapon regulations?
Yes — this specific configuration is sold as California legal. The PS90's thumbhole stock design does not qualify as a pistol grip under California's assault weapon statutes, and this model ships with a 10-round magazine that complies with California's magazine capacity restrictions. Always verify current state regulations with a licensed firearms attorney or dealer, as laws can change, but this model is specifically configured and stocked for California residents.
