So much powder is being burnt out of the barrel on a short barrel 5.56.
Look at the muzzle blast on a 20 in barreled 5.56 weapon!!! Ammo dependent btw.
My 7.5 inch AR SBR is a fire breather with PMC ammo.
I hate PMC because it has so much flash.

This application is where the P90 really shines and was designed for.
after all, 50 rounds at the ready is better than 30, right?
And compatibility in ammo and magazines between a PDW and your other carbines/rifles would be a real plus.
The only upside is ammo compatibility with it's bigger brothers. Fireball and concussion render it useless in CQB unless you have a muffler, hearing protection, and welding goggles.
The 5.7 is a longer bullet and will tumble - whereas the 5.56 will not.
At short distances, the 5.7 has the upper hand over a 7" 5.56 barrel.
Still, I want one.

It's the wrong damned color! I guess after a trip to the cerekoter, it would be worthy...

i think they should melt it down and make 17s magazines with all the metal they've wasted in the design process Originally Posted by 101ABN327

While I think a p90(not ps90!!) has an advantage for close combat ballistics, ammo capacity, and recoil the PDW would sure be a sweet piece to have.

I'm going to assume LE only... not expecting semi auto versions.
