      It’d be admirable in Halo or Destiny. In real life? Yeesh.

      This is the company that made the P90. The F2000 is 20% longer than needed in any two directions.

      I don’t really know anything about guns, but most especially this one. Why is the f2000 sealed up in a plastic assembly? Is it for ergonomics or to reduce production costs or something? Sincere question.
