They will continue to make them as long as there is a market and demand. Simple as that.

They've been discontinued, simple as that.

Maybe they are coming out with a pmag friendly tuna. That would be cool, but kind of pointless probably.

 

[ZigHunter]

The F2000 will still be made so there will be spare parts.

Yay!

Wait wut?

 

[jhs27275]

Wait wut?

The FS2000.

Bullpups, like it or not, are still somewhat niche products despite having a fervent fan base (myself included, I own 2 of them and have been considering a 3rd). It may be possible that they are planning another .223 bullpup product some time in the near future. The F2000/FS2000 platform has its issues even to those biased towards it. There are several places, including ergonomics, construction design and internal action, where it could be reasonably easily changed to great benefit. I don't like the idea of them halting production of the FS2000 line but hope it will lead to better things down the road. I am hoping they are not simply doubling down on the SCAR platform at the cost of others.

That is probably the exact thing they are doing. They did say production halted and not discontinued and many firearms come and go all the time e.g. HK mark23. Also, even though the 2K is in service with some militaries it doesn't have that connection to our military the SCAR line has. It would be cool to know how many 2Ks they sell a year versus how many SCAR 17s. The 2K is near perfect and the "issues" it has are probably not enough to refresh it but if they do I am really intrigued as to what it would be. FN FX2000

I think it's production halted and discontinued.

RIP Big Tuna
Hope it comes back with a vengeance someday.

It will be interesting to watch how this plays out on Gunbroker over the next year.

 

[monsterdog]

Man, this sucks.. Will they still honor the lifetime guarantee?

How about spare parts availability?

What I can do, is provide parts support for the FS2000 for a very long time.

FN will still warranty the weapon.

N.I.B. guns will become collectible to the purists. As to what the market will bear, who knows on the short term... but the long term will definitely see an positive side.

[monsterdog]

I will be able to support the platform with spare parts for an indefinite timeframe.

-SS

Will you be able to provide parts they have previously not sold to the masses (aka. the rest of us), such as barrels and receivers in the future?

 

[STL]

If they're not making weapons, they're not making receivers, so no receivers.

Working on barrels...

[FS2000T]

Stryker, how about an OD Green stock for a tactical? Can you get one of those?

 

[STL]

The stock is still restricted (it was considered the receiver) along with the ejection chute.

Oh, ok. I thought someone said that the Tactical switched the "receiver" to a different part so the stock was now available. Must have been mistaken.

 

[STL]

Yes, that was the initial position, but we hit a speed bump and are awaiting a final answer. Until that comes, no sales of either the ejection chute (rail) or the stock (traditionally referred to as the receiver) will happen.
