That's one of the lamer quzzes of that type I've seen. It just gives you answers like "handgun" or "shotgun." How boring.

What kind of pistol is that, anyway?

I looked it up in The Illustrated Book of Guns and it's a Fabrique Nationale Five-SeveN™ pistol. It's a 5.7 mm pistol with a 20 round magazine.

That same book has a picture of the FN P90 submachine gun in 5.7 mm, and it's a wild gun. It was designed for tank corps, support troops, and others who work in cramped spaces and rarely need a sidearm. Damn thing is a nearly rectangular, bullpup design, with a double-stack, 50-round magazine that runs on top of the gun, parallel to the barrel. When the rounds feed, they're rotated 90 degrees so that they can enter the barrel.

Here's a pic. I may make that next week's gun pic of the week.

P.S. This was the Quizilla with the worst spelling/grammar. Oh well. Like they said in Unforgiven, "Little Bill may be brave, but he ain't no carpenter."
