 This from the FN WEBSITE:
The FN 503, inspired by FN’s legendary heritage, is the company’s first entry into the slim 9mm pistol market. The FN 503, roughly the size of your hand, conceals quickly and discreetly without compromising on features or performance. The excellent trigger and soft recoil of this slim 9mm pistol make the FN 503 comfortable and controllable to shoot. Arguably the best in its class, the all-metal trigger breaks crisply and consistently with an average of 5lb. trigger pull. The snag-free sights ensure a quick draw from any holster or bag. And, the enlarged controls make operation effortless when switching between the 6-round standard magazine and 8-round extended magazine.

 This from the MARS website:
The MARS M19 "Mustang" represents the next step of evolution in the MARS Rifle series. While taking a great leap forward in design and functionality, the M19 stays true to the MARS ideals of modularity and customization that fits the needs and desires of the user. The M19 "Mustang" is a multi-caliber rifle that functions primarily on modern long recoil, utilizing recoil impulse, to operate the rifle without gas. The resulting system runs clean, is free of carbon fouling, and fires high caliber cartridges with minimal to no perceived recoil. The rifle features an ambidextrous, non-reciprocating and self-returning forward charging handle, and a folding stock that maintains the ability to fire with the stock folded. The rifle can also be disassembled to its bare components, by the operator, in the field, and without any special tools. R&D, while competing for the US Army's NGSW contract, has brought the MARS M19 "Mustang" to the cutting edge! Shooting is believing!  This from the CZ WEBSITE:
The next generation of the Bren, the Bren 2 Ms makes first landfall in the US in pistol form with multiple barrel lengths and two chamberings. Whereas the 805 Bren was designed to a specific set of requirements set out by the Czech military, the Bren 2 is a clean-sheet design. With a bevy of changes, the most noticeable is sure to be the strict weight-loss regimen that the Bren 2 has undergone. With a trimmed-down aluminum receiver and a lower made from carbon fiber-reinforced polymer, the result is a robust but substantially lighter gun. Gone is the reciprocating charging handle, replaced with one that stays stowed in the forward position until it is needed. Swappable from side to side, it does double duty as a forward assist. Also added is an AR-style bolt catch/release system that is mirrored on both sides of the firearm, as well as a catch/release nestled into the front of the trigger guard. The magazine release and safety are also ambidextrous and located in very familiar locations for anyone versed in the AR platform. Chambered in 223 and 7.62×39, each is available in several barrel lengths. AR-15 style magazines are used for 223 variants, whereas in 7.62 the factory’s magazines are used to ensure last round hold-open and consistent feeding. All variants are swappable to different barrel lengths and chamberings and also feature a modular forend that can be swapped to different lengths. In pistol form, the Bren 2 Ms comes with a flush rear plate that has the provision for attaching a AR-style buffer tube for the installation of an arm brace, cheek rest or similar pistol stabilizing device. For those who wish to SBR, a Carbine buffer tube and stock can be installed or the entire rear plate can be removed and replaced with a factory folding/adjustable stock.
