Controversy
  • According to the ATF, the Five-seven is one of the weapons favored by drug cartels in the Mexican Drug War, and smuggled Five-seven pistols can sell for $2,600 to $5,000 in Mexico. Should the numbers be converted to pesos?
    • The Five-seven's price in the infobox is only given in dollars, so giving this second number in pesos would probably be unnecessarily confusing. In addition, the source only mentions the price in dollars. ROG5728 (talk) 01:45, 24 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Valid enough. ResMar 16:16, 24 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Later in the month, a number of gun control organizations such as the Brady Campaign wrote a collaborative letter to U.S. President Barack Obama, citing the weapon's reported use by the Fort Hood shooter and Mexican drug cartels, and calling on him to ban importation of the Five-seven pistol and 5.7x28mm ammunition. What came of this? ResMar 13:19, 22 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps then you should add a sentance that it's an ongoing issue? ResMar 16:16, 24 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
