He could've outfitted the entire ranch with Ruger 10/22s (one of the best varmint rifles imo) and enough .22lr ammo to go to war with a small nation for that price as well, lmao. But no, waste your money on FN's embarrassment. Sure, why not.You're really underselling how poor a choice the Five-Seven is. Despite the much higher cost per round, 5.7x28 offers relatively negligible benefits over 9x19. Further, it's not nearly as readily available commercially as 9mm, .380ACP, .45 etc. It's also basically useless when compared to an AR/AK, a 9mm, or shit, even a .22LR rifle really, for what tasks a firearm would have on a ranch. (Most notably as a varmit gun to deal with pest animals).
For the same price as one Five-Seven he could've built two AR pattern rifles (assembling a complete upper and lower is as simple as inserting a takedown pin), for around the same price point (~$1,110) and had enough money to spare for ammo. Alternatively he could've done an AR SBR build (including the cost of the NFA tax stamp) and had the money for a decent pistol chambered in an actually useful cartridge left over.
That's not even touching on the options that exist for milsurp, former LEO, and used firearms (for example he could've bought around 3 SKSs or four Yugo M57s with ammo for the same price as the Five-Seven), or cheap but surprisingly reliable shit like Hi-Point pistols.
I'd also place money that they've never even fired the fuckin Five-Seven. The Hellcat? Maybe, it's got some dings, though maybe they bought it second hand. I'd guaran-fuckin-tee if they ever tried target practice at the
