Compare: All My 5.7 Pistols & 3 Red Dots! FN, Ruger and PSA

- As promised, here is the comparison of the three commonly available 5.7x28 handguns: FN Five-seveN, Ruger 57 and Palmetto State Armory 5.7 Rock! And we installed three different red dot choices on them and will begin the video focusing on those three before we move on the pistol differences. The three red dots are all 3 to 3.25 MOA. They are the expensive Trijicon RMR, the lesser known medium priced Burris Fast Fire 4 with a metal frame, and the less expensive and well known Vortex Venom.

I ordered a Rock from PSA for a gift. We shot 300 rounds. I sold my FN and bought a Rock for myself.
The PSA 23 round mags, and I have 20+ of them, all hold 24 rounds.
Nice review.
Sir I love the roc 57 n also have a lot of mags n also realized they'll hold 24 just like the ruger will hold 21,not telling u wut to do, but as much as I like the xtra round, I still only load to standard capacity, not bkus I'm worried about the spring, but bkus I think its a bad idea to put that much pressure on the lips of the magz even tho they're steel. Just my opinion, with 1 in the hole u got 24rds anyway. Just offering my opinion man, IM definitely tempted to do the same but decided against it just in case. Rock on boss!
You can add a +7 extension. 30 rounds with only about 1 inch extra mag amazing
How much did ya get that for? I have two 9mms but would like one of these, I also think my girl would shoot it better. I like the look of the Ruger but always comes down to feel
Ruger 57 is a great companion to the LC carbine and shares mags. Perfect match and is a major factor in my decision.
Guys…. Not affiliated with anyone or company, just recently retired fireman of 30 yrs… but his sponsor, Kore belts are 100% legit! Best gun belt I’ve EVER owned by a long shot! I looked for years and finally found the perfect belt in an Tanger outlet store when I was down in South Alabama last year. I went back the next day and bought a second! I’ve turned quit a few people onto them who thanked me. That being said… I ordered a blem PSA Rock 5.7 with 10 mags and case for $599 last week…. Excited, ready to put my hands on it and run a few hundred through it!
I love my S&W m&p 5.7. I have a Holosun 507K on it.
I have a gen 1 5.7 and a PSA Rock. I am very impressed with the Rock. I paid about $350 by buying the frame & slide seperately and the mags are only $20. You can customize it much easier through PSA's website, choosing different barrel/slide combos. I'm just waiting for 5.7x28 ammo to come back down closer to the $20/bx range...lol!
I ordered the PSA Rock a week before the latest Illinois gun ban, I received the magazines that are now illegal but they didnt ship the pistol that would be...imagine my disappointment
Good luck with 20 a box 😢
@@Slugonthese just remembering the good ole days...lol!
@@nbobf4 I just got into guns, I’m 23 so I’ve only been able to own rifles for 5 years and handguns for 2. So I’m use to 30-50 a box of 5.7. I always get jealous when hearing how much 22 was.
@@Slugonthese im 19. i own 4 handguns. its legal in michigan for private sale above 18
I don't even like having to use the plates.
I like that a lot of guns are coming cut for the most popular optics direct mount & just offering plates for different footprints.
Burris fast fire 4 has the best field of view hands down!!!! If you like to shoot you will prefer it!
Went with the Ruger 57 myself
I heard the trigger pull sucks I would either get the s&w or the FN
Get a Bella for short stroke trigger by Galloway precision or a tandem cross trigger
@@Yvng_bxne_monxy_You heard, yet never bought. One of those goofies…

I’d definitely pick the PSA 5.7 Rock.
For price or quality.?
@@millionmoes4290 based on what I’ve seen so far, both. Price seems to be really good. PSA runs bundles quite a bit and from the reviews I’ve seen it seems to be a quality build.
That’s my thought as of now.
I’ll probably wait a bit to get one, but when and I decide to get into the 5.7x28 caliber I’d go this route first.
@@millionmoes4290he’s only swaying towards buying a Rock for PRICE. All these Grade A copes in the comments are only picking the PSA because of price. They’re too cheap to drop money on quality product. If the Five Seven was $500 or less, they’d be all over the FN instead. It’s literally just price don’t let anyone tell u different they’re just lying lol
Lol u PSA lovers love making excuses to buy cheap garbage
I have a HOLOSUN 509T on my RUGER 57. My gunsmith re-drilled the HOLOSUN adaptor plate to fit the 57. Works great
BTW, Smith & Wesson now has a 5.7 pistol, the M&P 57. YEA!
I really don't like the FN safety location. I do have an FN PS90 which I like very much.
I feel like ruger says not to use an optic over an ounce (not sure if that’s correct). The 509t is almost 2 ounces, ever have a problem with the ruger cycling or no?
PSA. The price is just a bonus.
I shoot very well with my iron sights. I don’t see the need for the red dot.
For a good review my recommendation is use the same ammo and same optic on each pistol if you are doing a comparison! That way you are comparing apples to apples not apples to pears!
You need smith&Wesson 57 now👍🏽
Will u be picking up the M&P 5.7?
I'd say these are more the size of a Glock 17. The 19 is significantly smaller than my Ruger 57
Thank you i was about to talk my shit. We have all of these guns at my job none of them are mid-size/compact firearms they're all full size. Like you said G17 is more comparable.
Glock 17 size for sure
100%. I picked up a ruger and immediately was amazed at the size but how light it was. Haven’t decided on which of the 3 I wanted yet.
I would say it’s closer to a Glock 34
@Cliff McCabe I went with the 57 bro. I love that weapon.
Im ROCKIN THE ROC ALL DAY, PSA ALL DAY! ARM AMERICA!!!
Cause you’re broke lol
You can find the FN MRD for around $900 shipped currently.
On the topic of RDS when Holosun came out I was skeptical of the brand. I’m impressed by what they offer. Especially since Primary Arms has chosen Holosun to install their ACSS emitter in a couple of the popular RDS bodies.
Should’ve waited a few months and added the smith and Wesson!
S&w m&p 5.7 is the baest 🙏💐
PSA is hit or miss. I have the Ruger LC Carbine 5.7, wonderful ergonomics, wonderful use of the 5.7 round in full coming out that carbine barrel. It is also extremely light. If s hit the man I would grab the LC and choose the Ruger as my side arm. Mind you I have both the carbine and the pistol. The ergonomics to me… the ruger carbine and pistol feel great in hand. The psa rock feels nice, but I trust ruger for more reliability. The rock is a nice pistol though, but it’s hit or miss. PSA has terrible quality control and customer service now. They grew fast and im not so much a fan now. Broke people will choose the rock, but why the hell would you be broke and go with a 5.7 round? If I had to choose over again, I would have went with FN. I believe my M4 in the Corps was an FN. battlefield rdy and proven.
I always pick the gun I shoot the best. Over the life of the pistol, the amount of time spent setting it up doesn't amount to much.
Yay! I've been waiting for this one!
Would love to see a compact 5.7
lol no point because shorter barrel means velocity is even worse than it already is in pistol form.
@@exime9500 Doesn't have to have a super short barrel, just a less brick like frame for easier carry.
I have some Mk2 magazines, and I filed the sides down a little bit and they work perfectly and flush, try it out
The Rock looks like the easiest to grip. But I far prefer a green dot sight.
Beautiful! 5.7 should be the best pistol in the world.
While I have no experience with the FN I have owned the ruger and PSA. The Ruger came with a voucher for 1 optics plate. Waited a month for that. When I changed to a different optic, it cost me 40$ and another month to get it from ruger. Trigger sucks and takedown was goofy. Paid 750$ The PSA was 500$ with all plates included. Its much more of a duty gun then the ruger, which is a pinker at best. Has more capacity. Just bought a second PSA 5.7 for 350$....and the mags are 20$....better trigger. Glock sights...Put a halosun on them.
S&W just came out with a 5.7 as well, looks nice but I sold my ruger for the PSA and won't sell them, regardless of how nice the S&W is.
Don't know what CZcams doing but had to subscribe again
Real useful comparison!
Good job, new sub.
Thank you.
I want one lol but I really need a decent 22 that I can actually afford to shoot more than even my 9mm
The optic on the Ruger is too heavy to operate reliable with the 27 grain bullets. The Ruger feels better than a 1911. The internals look almost identical to the 1st Gen FN. My choice is the Ruger 57. The Ruger is the most accurate!
No you’re just coping with the fact that u can’t afford a Five Seven
I can’t speak for the ruger or the psa but I have a few different fivesevens and find the usg to be the most accurate of them all. That being said, it looks stupid with a red dot on it. It is super lightweight though. The mkiii I have fitted with a holosun 508t and it’s a great combo. The mkii looks ok with a 507k. I enjoy the usg, mkiii, mkii. In that order.
Nice optic review...
Lol
Closer to a Glock 17 L or 34 or 35, I Believe. Comparing a 4” barrel to 5”+ a little which is what a 34 or 35 is. Isn’t that right? I’m wondering if the S&W gas operated gets hot like a HK P7 M13. I took mine shooting steel And Pins. They get hot in Hot Weather. After about 4 Mags in 90+ degree. Makes me wonder if the S&W gas operated gets hot?
Does the RMR cowitness with the FN Mk3 oem sights? Thank you.
Just ordered a PSA rock looking forward to it. Will have to learn how to load the 5.7!
Makes loading "easy peasy" seven rounds at a time
Dont know why FN would not make the MK3 mags backwards compatible. Had one for 2 months cant find gen 3 mags anywhere makes no sense
Mk2 will work believe it or not try it
THEY HAVE 5.7 IN SMITH AND WESSON
@@dailanhardiman1291 Yes, they made one AFTER this video was released
czcams.com/video/OfVH-1Io4xM/video.htmlfeature=shared
Don’t forget Smith&Wesson came out with theres too
Ruger 5.7 all year round
Bum choice
Wondering if the Rock steel guide rod with fit in the Ruger 57
For the FTE you mentioned w/Ruger...was that with the 27gr or 40gr FN ammo, or something else?
I see search result says Venom is 1.6 ounces, which if I recall, Ruger says not to go over 1 or maybe 1.2 oz. to ensure cycling...so that may be a factor.
But I am curious what ammo failed for you.
I have the ruger never a problem purchased 3000 rds before gun several yrs ago
Why didn’t you go over the trigger on the FN?
It looks like the MK III is the only one that has sights that cowitness.
Where’s the m&p 5.7?
Just remember... You get what you pay for.
Exactly, u pay cheap prices, you will receive a cheap gun 😂😂💀 these people in these comments will fight to the death to make it seem like the PSA is better but they’re only saying that to cope with not being able to afford a real Five Seven
How many rounds did u fire through the psa b4 it misfired ???
Can you please tell me if Ruger's magazine will work with PSA? This is an important question for me as I live in a restricted state and there are only 10 Ruger ammo magazines for sale.
No they don't work with the Rock
What about the S&W or PSA Rock will work on the FN?
Any of the them use the same magazine?
Won't use a red dot without shake awake on a carry gun.
😯😯😯verygood👍👍👍sudyord😁😁😁i from THAILAND. 5 12. 2565
PSA, what a great firearm
You could stick a high point label on that FN I would believe you that it was a HP, maybe after firing it i could tell and the subject of reliability came up. But it's just not an attractive platform. Looks bulky bland and boring just like a high point pistol. and the cost alone is laughable. It's a coin flip for any of the other two, I'd be happy with either. But IF I HAD TO PICK THE FN.....I would, then turn right around and sell it and buy a Ruger and add a red dot and still have money left over.
check out the New M&P 5.7 its a game changer
Yeah I Have The Ruger 57 With The Viridian E.Series Green 💚 Laser. I'm Definitely Going To Purchase The S&W MP Shield 57.
I want the one that’s the most accurate, and he said it’s the ruger, the rest of that nonsense means nothing in a gun fight, go for the one that shoots the best…. Buying something because it looks cool is something a kid would do, versus buying the most reliable in a crisis situation
Why the hell do you think range accuracy has any relevancy in a defensive shooting? You're not taking your time in that kind of situation, the actual ergonomics are far more important.
Lol the most accurate is the five seven. Anyone saying otherwise is just coming up with Bs to cope with not being able to afford a Five Seven
@@InvidiousIgnoramus range accuracy leads to accuracy in a life or death situation moron
Not digging the Vortex
No m&p smith and Wesson 5.7
Didn't exist when this video was made, we do have a review on one now.
I can hardly see the holes of the 5.7. 🥴
You need the Smith & Wesson model
When it became available we were able to get one and do a review on it.
I don't I buy Ruger
Thanks for the review. Do you realize you repeat yourself on almost every point. You make the same point 3 different ways. Drags out the review and makes it very boring.
I’ve never seen a RMR for $700. Where in the hell is he shopping?!
