After a search, I couldn't find anything, so hopefully this isn't a dupe.

On Military gun supply, I came across this.
My first thought was

a 5.7 upper?
Maybe someone can shed some light on this "latest and greatest" product

I assume that won't work for New Yorkers because it holds 50 rounds?

I was told by JRKARP on the boards here there was a FEW 50 round FN pre ban PS90 mags around.... again I was told this in passing I have not seen one for sale personally....I was unaware the platform existed pre 1994.... so again this is very shaky info.

when i first saw this i thought they should have made a regular ar15 lower that would accept the pistol mags (20rnds) for a badass 10" sbr :)

Isn't that what the 90 in p/ps90 stands for?

ETA - they make 10 rd mags.

Again I am unsure.... I am not well versed in the history of the P/PS90 this was just passing info from a source who is not even using the platform, I am just tossing it out in hopes of someone verifying or denying.

The P90 is a Belgian designed 5.7x28mm personal defense weapon (PDW) developed between 1986-1987 by Stéphane Ferrard at Fabrique Nationale de Herstal

The first P90 prototype firing 5.7x28mm ammunition was completed in October 1986, and over 3000 submachine guns were produced up to 1993 in a low-rate initial production run.
