Newest episode of Fringe has a couple modified FsNs near the end of the episode. Had some weird little accessory attached to the rail. Made it look pretty cool, even if it didn't serve a purpose.

Image

It almost looks like the little crimson trace units they make for pocket pistols.



Also noticed a SCAR making its way into the new DeCaprio movie, Inception, and it looks like Mr. Bauer even has one in the finale of 24. Must be a good year for FN PR :laugh:

Not Hollywood, French film...... I caught a couple P90's last night watching 'District 13: Ultimatum'
DISS carried them as they were sweeping the highrises.

These were in burn notice:

FiveseveN
Image

P90
Image

Scar
Image

The game series Socom from back in the ps2 days before the ps3 even came out had the p90 and the FiveseveN. The p90 was called the f90 and the FiveseveN was called f57. I had no idea what either one was. The "f90" very inaccurate and fast shooting, was seen as a noob gun because it was pretty much like a shotty for close range because the bullets flew everywhere, like a shotgun. I remember liking the f57 because it had an extremely high capacity compaired to the rest. Now that I know what the guns are, it is pretty cool looking back on that game.

I think it sucks that mostly bad guys always have the p90 and FiveseveN. Doesn't really matter to me, but you know how the general public looks at things. "Yes lets ban that gun, I saw it on X tv show and every bad guy on there had one!"

FsN seen on TV show - anyone catch it?

Post by smportis » 22 Feb 2011, 23:16

On Human Target last week (2/12 maybe), the "Kill Bob" episode, the Russian wife/agent sports a FsN IOM. You see a close up of it in the "jousting" scene where they drive towards each other hanging out the passenger door. Just thought it was interesting. I never get to clearly ID guns on TV or movies, since I own that and a Walther PK1.

Interesting choice by the consultants. Anyone know them? Probably a small community of folks who would recommend that weapon for a tv show.

There's a thread somewhere, I think it's called "Hollywood" or something. I've seen the FsN numerous times in Fringe, Chuck, Human Target, and I think there's another. Oddly, it's usually used by the bad guys.

Human Target has had FsNs in previous episodes. Chuck used to have the bad guys using the FsN almost exclusively. Here's the thread for FN on the small screen:

Almost every 'bad guy' on Human Target uses either the FsN or the P90. I've noticed it since I'm an avid viewer. A lot of forum members here think the show a bit hokie, but I don't care.
I like the show.
Even named my rottweiler Chance. :p

I agree about that Pucci not floating the proverbial boat. Talk about shows that feature the FsN sort of crossing over... Human target had a much more (IMHO) easy on the eyes female, unfortunately she was only in one episode though. She was originally from BSG: Grace Park. I'm trying to remember if she handled the FsN during the pool fight scene...

I also liked that BSG had the Beretta rifles too...what were they again? Oh, yeah. The Cx4 Storm. They put a different flash hider on it, but it still looked pretty cool. I'd never seen one before, then heard others talking about how they shot handgun ammo and used the same mags as the 92's and that made me want one.

If your quick enough you can spot a Five seveN on the bottom left row of guns when the girl opens up her closet full of guns in the new movie --Faster with Dwayne " The Rock" Johnson. I'll see if I can find a snapshot of it.. About the only good thing in the whole movie.

Just came back from the Science Fiction Museum in Seattle where they are doing the Battlestar Galactica exhibit. Got to see that FiveseveN IOM with me own eyes. The grip was painted a gross dark brown and they didn't do a good job applying it, and the undermount thingy was weird. Also it looked like the controls were all painted grey, kinda sloppy. It says "Imported by FN somethingy something" on the slide though. Definitely neat to see I was like OOOOHHH I know this!!

I rented a couple "gun" movies last weekend and thought I would share a few cameos by our favorite weapons.

The first movie, "Faster" with The Rock, was pretty decent and had a lot of different weapons. The FsN was only shown hanging on "Killer's" armory wall. The Rock was using the cool 2.5 barreled Ruger Super Redhawk Alaskan throughout the movie chambered in .454 Casull. There is an assassin called "Killer" who is uber-pretentious and totally into guns. There is a scene with him and his newlywed (in a sexy wedding dress) taking target practice shortly after their ceremony (it's cooler than it sounds). As I said, it is actually a pretty decent movie and is entertaining in it's on right.

http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Faster" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;


The other movie I watched was "Gun" with 50 Cent and Val Kilmer (the guy has really let himself go - it's sad). The movie wasn't so hot (big surprise) but I was entertained due to all the gun references throughout the movie. It seems the movie definitely has the gunophile in mind. The movie is about arms dealing and 50 Cent is running around constantly talking about his .50 cal S&W and how badass it is. There is also some great scenes with the PS90 even though they call it the P90 when demonstrating it for potential customers. They have a scene where they describe its armor piercing capabilities and shoot it at armor while discussing it's low recoil. It was almost like an FN commercial. PS90 fans will like the movie just because of that part.

Hope you have fun watching them! :)

I watched that movie the other day and it was pretty entertaining in its own right. But it is some serious gun porn for FsN lovers... When one LEO states that the killer uses "something called a 5.7x28mm", the other LEO states "that is a new round and some nasty s#!t". He said, "it's designed for the military". They make it sound like it's a thermonuclear hand-cannon. lol

I can't imagine a bigger starring role for the FsN than this movie. It is black with grey controls and gets used A LOT!

Highly recommended!

Supposedly the Five-seveN will be entering the Call of Duty series in the upcoming Modern Warfare 3 (I believe the P90 has been included before, but not the Five-seveN).

It was always the P90, long before the civilian version, the PS90, existed. Unlesss of course the gun you're talking about in the civilian version with the ridiculously long barrel.

Sons of Anarchy season 4 opener just ended. There were a couple references to the FsN.

Early in the show an ATF agent is listing guns the IRA has provided to the Sons he mentions an FN fiftyseven.

Later at Opie's wedding, one of the Russians describes a "cop killer" that "penetrates kevlar" and hands Clay a FsN.

Fringe finale, has a very quaint new version of the FsN.

Usually, tacky series just put a lasermax or light on the FsN, or use a clone.

The Fringe series has always had the best reincarnations of the FsN. The finale (pt 1.) has a really rad one.

Yeah, the latest variant in the Fringe series is on the 2nd to last episode of this season; the villain Jessica uses a really tricked out one that William Bell had created. It had a different sight that was toward the front of the slide.

This particular game came out a couple of months ago for the new Playstation Vita handheld system. I think the reason for the simplistic web page is to make it look better on the 5" screen.

I saw a brief glimpse of a fsn on that new motorcycle show on discovery channel. I was working out and not paying attention to the tv and then looked up when I heard a slide racking. Dude was packing a fiveseven!

The show is called The Devils Ride.

:) Last season of fringe is powered. I'm glad FOX didn't repeat the error of cancelling it, as with Firefly.

Captured off the 2nd episode of this last season. I brightened the image so you could see the detail, more clearly. Originally using FsN's, they went to a prototype FsN that fired highly-accelerated rounds (imagine that). Then from that prototype, the pictured firearm you see was developed. They really spent time (and money?) on this prop. Which makes me smile.

I'm going to claim that the gun it is modeled after is a Walther P99 AS. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. Perhaps they changed it such that the narrower and shorter grip would allow easier manipulation for the actors and mainly, actresses that wield it.

For the record, if you are a Castle fan (and even if you're not) - best episode ever - IMHO. Tons-o-sci fi references including Star Trek, BSG, and yes, even "That Joss Whedon show."

AGREED.

I think he snuck the "Joss Whedon" comment in there, and that it wasn't in the script. He hesitated, and he couldn't help himself. :)

I think it was intentional, if you watch the series there are occasional references to Firefly. During one halloween episode he was trying out costumes & came out wearing his 'Captain Mal' get up.

Saw a black Five-seveN in the movie Transcendence the other week. The camera spent quite a bit of time on the gun (both side and muzzle angles) so you were able to easily identify it. The guy holding the FsN was being mind-controlled and just kind of held it out there for all to see if I remember correctly. Rotten Tomatoes gave the movie a bad rating and I was hesitant to watch it, but am glad I did because I really enjoyed it. The movie explored some really far-out technology concepts and the acting was good. I really can't fathom why they gave it such low marks. I usually agree with RT's ratings but this one seemed more like a 50 than a 19.

The bad guys (Hydra) often have FsN's on that show. The last episode I saw had the heroes posing as BGs, and I'm pretty sure they were wielding FiveseveNs.

Really really. It's on his IMDB bio page but also on lots of other webpages out there.
The one that really surprised me though was stallone & his comment about going door to door & confiscating guns.
In an interview, while living in Britian, sly is quoted as saying:
In response to the shooting of Phil Hartman in 1999, Sylvester Stallone told Access Hollywood, “Until America, door to door, takes every handgun, this is what you’re gonna have. It’s pathetic. It really is pathetic. It’s sad. We’re living in the Dark Ages over there.”

Hollywood is full of hypocrites like that.

Well Rapier1772, I am not quite sure how to take your reply on the NCIS post. I would hope you are being sarcastic. How could you possibly consider this as "bad press". The fact that the show featured the FiveseveN at all is a tribute to the weapon we all endorse. Care to explain?
