The Five-seveN is a semi-automatic pistol manufactured by Fabrique Nationale de Herstal (FNH). It’s name is derived from the unique ammunition it uses.

FN created the new 5.7x28mm cartridge for its FN P90 personal defense weapon to meet NATO requirements released in 2000. Subsequently FN created the Five-seveN pistol to offer agencies who adopt the P90, which is a side arm chambered for the same cartridge.
