The weapon has fully ambidextrous controls, allowed by a unique ejection system, ejecting spent cartridge casings forward and to the right side of the weapon, through a tube running above the barrel. The F2000 made its debut in March 2001 at the [[International Defence Exhibition|IDEX]] defence exhibition held in [[Abu Dhabi]], in the [[United Arab Emirates]].
