Any significant differences between the 5.7 MK II and earlier 5.7's?

Other than the fact that I can't use my beloved Blackhawk Serpa holster.

In for info.

I like the USG version. Why did FN feel the need to change it?

On a side note, being have two Blackhawk Serpa holsters, I'm going to try and open up the tolerances on one of them to see if I can modify it to work with the MKII

Since it locks on the frame and not the slide try and slide just the frame in and see if it engages, if it does then you are good to modify, if not you are destroying the holster.

There have been reports that the slide is slightly too wide and the frame is wider where the rail is. If that is the only issues, I think I can open the holster up enough.

Let us know if you get it to work

Will do, the Serpa is one of the few holsters I trust to not bump the mag release or the safety.
