In this test of a real world FN P90, 9-Hole Reviews checks the accuracy up to 500 yards... "The FN P90 was a product of the 1990's late-Cold War. Its forward leaning employment theory of the PDW cartridge was an idea that many consider un-proven and some... unnecessary.

As a type-1 PDW, the FN P90 was made from the ground up to bridge the gap between the 9mm and 5.56mm weapons, but did it do this task? Can it reach to 500yards? We find out."
