GOLDILOCKS APPROACH TO GUN CONTROL . . .
. . . Shortly after hyping expensive and heavy .50 caliber target rifles owned by recreational precision shooters as potential tools of terrorists because they are “too big,” the Brady Center has now condemned as “too little” a relatively new cartridge, the 5.7 X 28 millimeter developed by FNH and its polymer framed handgun. FN’s FiveseveN was originally designed as an ammunition-compatible sidearm for police using the company’s select-fire products, but also sold to the civilian market like other semi-auto pistols. The Brady Center claims the little 5.7 round and the lightweight pistol that shoots it are not suitable for self-defense or sporting purposes, something the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives notes is not true, Unlike Goldilocks, the gun prohibitionists never find a firearm that’s “just right.”
