Why would you want one?
Bulkier than a handgun and less useful than a carbine. |

No doubt. Fifty rounds of .338 Lapua make it the ultimate subgun...

Someone sent me a weapons pack for the "Rogue Spear" computer game. If the modeling in this game is anywhere near correct, then the P90 is far superior to an MP-5 for dispatching terrorists. Probably the closest I'll ever get to shooting one.

Quoted: No doubt. Fifty rounds of .338 Lapua make it the ultimate subgun... ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ You sure about the caliber my friend. That would be one BIG ASS P90. Seriously it is chambered for the 5.7x28 round. |

Well, i spoke to a Special Jaeger(Part of our Airborne, a new more special forces type unit) branch instructor in 99 about the P90 and he said he prefered the MP5 in ergonomics and with the P90 you have to move your body more when aiming. The ability zip through kevlar is a plus still. But my M4 is not that much bigger and has even more punch.

I am on the trail of one if my county. I was at the officers association range policing my .223 brass and found some 5.7x28 brass. This range is just a five acre pasture with a ten foot tall berm at the back. It does have cement slabs at 25 and 50 yards, but that is the extent of the luxuries. It is paid for by the about fifty officers who pony up $25 a year to buy dirt for the berm and wood for target stands. The other 400 officers in the county must think $25 a year is too much to spend. With only fifty paying members, a total of 450 officers in the county, and only three PDs, the SO, constables offices, the prosecutors, and two FBI agents I have no idea who owns it.

I was walking thru the Houston gun show a few weeks ago and saw this guy totin' one around. He let me play with it for a few minutes, and man is that thing light. I'd like to know how much heavier it is with 50 rounds on the mag. Anyway, after a minute or two, he breaks out a sound suppressor for it. Oh baby...was I in heaven. I had been looking for a good C3 in the area, and he seemed like a real nice and honest guy. So the day became even better!
BTW, Shooter69...you know the .338 Lapua is based off the .416 Rigby, right? I couldn't imagine what would happen if someone were able to somehow load and fire one in a P90. Let's just say that we'll call him stumpy [:D] brouhaha |
