The FN P90 is a compact submachine gun manufactured and developed by Fabrique Nationale de Herstal (FN Herstal) of Belgium.
The submachine gun has an unusual bullpup configuration and a 50-round magazine that naturally sits on top of the weapon, parallel to the barrel which results in in a much shorter external barrel. The FN P90 arguably started a new class of PDW's (personal defense weapons) intended to defeat body armor with high velocity, small-caliber bullets. The FN P90 was soon joined by the Heckler & Koch MP7 chambered for a similar cartridge.

Yeah I've been looking for one too, so far I've only been running into the Civilian version that only has a semi-auto mode. PS90 if i am not mistaken, still i mean who wants that compared to full auto. xD
Still its so expensive. i mean they are almost 2000$ : <

so pay the gov for the tax stamp and get the auto sear/ trigger assembly. 2000 is cheep for an auto

Looks to me like a better option from the FN line. Not any less expensive, but a more standard caliber and more modern. Like BSC stated, you can't get a full auto without the appropriate credentials from the BATF.
DEMO
Bought this rifle this summer. Reloaded 350 rounds so far. No problems. The factory ammo is within 2" groups at 100. using a 1-4 leupold mark ar. I have 10 round mags in ny which feed very reliably. the trigger is much better than my fs 2000. only bad part was the price tag
