| While you're talking about new and different upper configurations; do you have any plans on making something like a 10.5" or 11.5" patrol carbine upper? While I like the size and "coolness" of the PDW upper, it really does reduce the effective range of the 5.56 cartridge. |

Seriously....
There is a dramatic difference in the balistics on the PDW vs 16" but if you are using the PDW for what it is intended you are not going to make shot out past 25-30 Meters. For that inclose work that the PDW was designed the results are devastating. Also shooting a round like the 5.56 in an enclosed space or at close range, the pressure wave is also effective. That is one SEXY upper..FWIW
