Five-seveN

Designed as the sidearm to accompany the P90 PDW, the Five-seveN pistol by Fabrique Nationale uses the same 5.7 x 28 mm cartridge as the P90. Despite the bulky nature of the ammo, the 20-round magazine can still be fitted into a comfortably-sized grip. The pistol itself was originally a striker-fired double-action only one, although the "tactical" version introduced a single-action mechanism. Operating by the traditional Browning breech-lock method, the Five-seveN has very little recoil for a combat pistol, rougly 2/3 of a gun of equal bulk in 9 mm Parabellum. With a muzzle velocity of 2100 ft/sec, the Five-seveN is just as capable of piercing armor as the P90. And the capitalization of the N in "seveN" is undoubtedly a marketing gimmick on the part of FN.

five second rule

This is a very complex law of physics. It states that if food (goldfish, for example) is dropped on the floor, it can be "safely" eaten within five seconds. The five second rule is very fun to apply when in...say...architectural drawing class, usually when Mr. Johnson leaves the room.
When other people are attempting to throw goldfish in your mouth, but miss and hit you smack diddley doo in the face, the five second rule applies as soon as it makes solid contact with the floor.

five by five

Loud and clear. From military erminology. Old radios had two readings. Loudness and clarity rated from 0-5. Thus five by five means literally loud and clear.

five thousand

(adjective phrase) having the intent to leave a place or situation quickly and promptly; comes from the phrase "I'm outtie" which sounds like "I'm Audi" from which follows "I'm Audi 5000" (as in the car) which eventually became simply "I'm five thousand." See also "outtie" and listen to the outro of "Straight Gangstaism" by the Geto Boys for an example.
"This party was cool, but now I got to go. Peace, I'm five thousand, y'all."
