This review of the FN FS2000, nicknamed the 'Tactical Tuna,' highlights its unique forward ejection system and sealed design for dust protection. While it demonstrates acceptable accuracy (1.5-2.1 MOA) and surprising long-range capability due to its 17.4-inch barrel, the rifle is criticized for its poor trigger, bulky feel, and difficult malfunction clearing. Garand Thumb concludes it's a reliable but outdated design, preferring modern AR-15 platforms for practical use.

The Polish Beryl, FN FS2000, SIG MCX Legacy, and Brownells BRN-10 are highlighted as examples of once-unpopular or discontinued models that are now highly collectible. The discussion touches on their original market performance, design quirks, and current market desirability.

The FN FS2000 demonstrates exceptional reliability in extreme conditions, particularly in mud tests. Its sealed design effectively prevents debris from entering the action, allowing it to function flawlessly even when heavily contaminated. While difficult to clear if mud does ingress, the FS2000's primary strength lies in its robust sealing, making it a highly durable bullpup rifle.

This expert-level guide details the field stripping and reassembly process for the FN FS2000 bullpup rifle, presented by Karl Kasarda of InRangeTV. It covers safety checks, magazine removal, accessing the fire control group, separating receivers, disassembling and reassembling the bolt carrier group, and cleaning the gas system. The guide emphasizes the unique forward-ejection system and potential complexities in disassembly, advising caution with certain components.

This "From the Vault" episode from Brownells features Paul Levy and Keith Ford at Rock Island Auction Company showcasing the Fabrique Nationale FS2000, a semi-automatic civilian variant of the F2000 bullpup assault rifle. The video highlights its similarities to the FN P90, its compact size due to a 17" barrel (for civilian legality), the conventional Picatinny rail for optics (demonstrated with a Leupold Mark 4 CQ/T), and its unique ambidextrous rotary safety and trigger system. The discussion also touches upon the P90's trigger system, the rifle's jam clearance mechanism, and the reasons behind the F2000/FS2000 platform's success, including its bullpup design and sealed magwell.

This review of the full-auto FN FS2000 highlights its unique forward-ejection system, making it ambidextrous. Despite a heavy trigger and significant barrel whip during full-auto fire, the rifle demonstrates surprising accuracy. The bullpup design is noted for its ergonomics, though clearing malfunctions can be challenging due to the enclosed action. It's considered a unique piece of firearms history.

The FN FS2000, despite its 'worst modern military rifle' label, is a fascinating bullpup with unique features like forward ejection. However, its integrated optic is low-quality, the charging handle is fragile, and magazine well restrictions limit compatibility. The tactical model offers improvements with a Picatinny rail, making it a fun, albeit quirky, collectible.

This review highlights the IWI IDF Tavor and FN FS2000 as modern collectible firearms whose value is increasing due to discontinuation. The IDF Tavor, a replica of the Israeli military rifle, is noted for its ergonomics but criticized for its Meprolight M21 optic.

Both are considered excellent investments for collectors, though the standard Tavor is recommended over the IDF model for optic flexibility.
