The FAS is quite a nice surprise. I used to shoot alongside several club members using them while I was shooting my 10. Never tried one- after all why should I try a Ford when I was shooting a Bentley? I bought a S/H one a couple of years ago... how wrong I was. Fabulous little pistol that looks and feels like a powder burner (and in fact it's built on the same chassis I believe.) Highly recommended for a person new to the sport. Mine is a keeper.
