Hey Dogfish or other 5.7x28mm knowers abouters...

What say you on this caliber? Pros / cons and what not?
I have the chance to pick something up, but I'm not 100% sold and need a push either way. Seems like a glorified .22 mag, but way more expensive. Thanks in advance amigos,

NickD90

Pretty much my thoughts, exactly. A low powered .223 or a magnum .22 magnum with limited factory ammo projectile selection.

However, the prospect of a select fire FN P90, and a few 50 round mags would be a lot of fun.

Doesn't interest me in the slightest. I will say the FN pistol is a pretty accurate bugger to 100yds from my experience....but I ain't in the market for a 100 yard pistol that's accurate.

Thanks Gents. I think I'll pass as there are other more useful items out there. Cheers,
