Talk:FN PS90

New PS90 page, thanks
Thanks for starting up a new PS90 page. Hopefully this removes some of the "clutter" from the P90 page. I've added some extra PS90 photos to the gallery.

Bolt vs Breech
As per the FN Herstal owner's manual for the PS90, the operating principle is: Blowback mechanism firing from closed breech.

There is no bolt in the P90/PS90. There is, however, a breech block that contains the ejector and extractor.

Reflex Sight Usage and Adjustment
In case anyone wants to know:

In order to adjust the point of impact to coincide with the point of aim, a 3-mm hex wrench is required. On the MC-10-80, there are two points of adjustment. The front (windage) allen screw holds down an adjustment screw. Loosen the allen screw and turn the adjustment screw CLOCKWISE to move the point of impact LEFT. Afterwards, tighten the allen screw and verify that the point of impact has been adjusted. Repeat this procedure for the rear adjustment (elevation). Turn the adjustment screw CLOCKWISE to move the point of impact UP. Proceed to zero out the sight at 50 yards using a nose-to-receiver cheek weld. The use of threadlocker on the threads of the allen set screws is not recommended. The adjustments are very coarse and should only be done in small increments to keep the shots on target.

When aiming at a target, the center 1 MOA dot of the daytime reticule should be your point of impact at 50 yards. If this is not the case, adjust the sight according to the instructions above and repeat the procedure until the point of impact coincides with the point of aim at 50 yards.

Remember to loosen both 3mm set screws when performing the adjustments to prevent binding.

Differnces from the P90
I really dont see enough differences in this gun from the normal P90 to warrant an article besides the normal civilian things that must me done. Someone tell me what im missing here Esskater 11  05:49, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
 * 16 in barrel and semi-automatic only.--ZH Evers (talk) 06:00, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Me neither. The extended barrel and semi-trigger don't qualify this as a divergent firearm. I realize some people wanted to show off some photos of their PS90's, which I'm sure is a nice little plinker, but I will put up a merge proposal later on. Koalorka (talk) 16:39, 18 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Y'know, you're right. I have Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion in mind - I think the PS90 not the least bit notable, except as a nerfed civilian version of the P90. So it shouldn't have its own article, but it can have a brief mention on the P90 article. — NRen2k5 (TALK), 07:48, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Legality
I'm guessing that as a bullpup this is still illegal in many jurisdictions. It would be nice if the article could clarify. — NRen2k5 (TALK), 07:18, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
