FNH Five SeveN 2
Civilian ownership of the Five SeveN has been controversial, to say the least. One version of the 5.7x28mm ammunition, the SS190, is claimed to have the ability to penetrate soft body armor. This ammo is tightly controlled and is virtually unavailable to the public. The civilian SS192 and 195 are hollow points, the SS196 and 197 are loaded with plastic tipped projectiles. NONE of these are armor piercing. Some people think that the SS192 has been banned because it's armor piercing, but this is totally untrue. The 192 and 195 are identical, except the 195 has a lead-free primer to comply with European RoHS (Restriction on Hazardous Substances) standards. The SS192 was discontinued simply because there was no market for it, though old stock can be found here and there. Scalpers have been selling it online to unsuspecting customers for $100 a box or more. Boxes of SS195 are usually labeled as SS195LF, with the LF standing for "lead free."
