So does this cartridge have any place in the armory of today's modern citizen?

The 5.7x28 cartridge is designed to defeat body armor, which more and more criminals have access to

The p90 is effective out to 20p yards, which would cover most threats that I might encounter (highway robbery on country road, school shooting, home defense)

The p90 provides a compact package for tight corners/hallways, and with the appropriate outfit can ve concealed. the five-seven allows for a CCW in a variety of outfits

Thoughts?

This is a shitty thread and you're probably a 17-19 year old kid that just watched a video on youtube that featured either of the two guns chambered in it.

I wish they'd slim down the end of the slide on the 57, remove the rail, and knock the mags down to 15rds and it would make a crazy CC gun.

>>28290390
Plan on getting one.

It has wound vectors.

That's about all I know.

So my major concern is the following scenario

Driving home, 8 pm
30 minutes through 2-lane highways.
2 pickups, each with two people pull up to me. Run me off the road
Trying to kill me for thrills or money, or whatever.

How do I defend myself? 15 rounds of 9mm won't cut it
My initial thought was an AR with a 10-12" barrel. But how does 5.56 compare to 5.7?

5.56 is better than 5.7 in literally every way except weight. 5.7 is a competitor to 9mm, not 5.56.

Spare mags for the 19

5.7 isn't going to give you enough stopping power for the zombie apocalypse, /k/omrad. :^)

This is what I was looking for. Thanks

You sound like an anti. "Why are you so scared of things that are so unlikely to happen?!" Quickly turns into "let the government keep you safe"

>>28290617
Playing out retarded scenarios in your head makes you look like a paranoid child.

Which I have no doubt that you are since you're coming to a cantonese crocheting bbs to discuss what gun to get.

5.56 Mk262 Mod 1 shits all over any pistol ammunition (and 5.7x28mm has similar wound ballistics to pistol ammunition), if a 10"-12" barrel AR is an option then take that every time. Only take something in a pistol caliber if you can't get something in a rifle caliber with good ammunition and a 10" barrel because below that point rifle ammunition starts making wounds more like pistol ammunition.

20 rounds of 5.7 will do you just fine, oh, yes.

PS90 is the tits.
Needs a giggle switch to be top tier though.

Does anyone have ballistic gel images showing how barrel length affects behavior?

MAC did a test with 5.7 from an Five Seven and a PS90 sbr.
