      Pretty sure the AR57 was dooky. This is a proper gun built around it rather than trying to shoehorn the round and weird P90 magazine into a gun that was absolutely not made to accept it like a mad scientist playing God with Eugene Stoner's perfect creation.

            If it performs worse in a carbine configuration than 5.56 does, why not use 5.56? It's WAY cheaper, has better ammo variety, performs better, and you can actually find it on a store shelf.
            Besides weight/space savings I don't see the benefit, and when you can already carry so much 5.56, the ability to carry any more is mostly redundant.

                Recoil is not the limiting factor here. Cartridge dimensions are. You can't fit 5.56x45mm into a pistol grip like you can 5.7x28mm.

                If 5.7 falls below 60cpr I will embrace it and get a FiveseveN and that carbine. It looks really nice. But I can afford to shoot someone 4 times with 9mm for the cost of 1 5.7 currently so it just isnt worth it YET.

                Online I see it around .75-85 for bulk. I burn though easily 500 rounds a month for my intermediate and handgun calibers. When it becomes economical myself and many of my friends will gladly hop on board the 5.7 train, I think the round has a lot of potential and offers something different than 9mm, .22, and .357 I shoot in handguns and pcc’s. I also like how it bridges the gap between handguns and rifles, it’s like a modern .30 carbine. Its velocity, flat trajectory, excellent expansion in HP and penetration in other loads let’s it cover most of my bases before you gotta step up to 5.56/7.62x39 or full-size rifle rounds like 7.62x51/54r, 7.5 Swiss, ect. Something like the ruger carbine (if reliable) or ps90 shit on a shotgun for close ranges for ease of use. I really hope the round comes down in price like I keep hearing.

                The point of 5.7 wasn't space or weight savings, it was to penetrate body armors that would stop traditional pistol calibers while maintaining the same form factor. This thing weighs 5.9 pounds dry and is very similar in size to an AR, so it's really not playing to 5.7's strengths. When the "pistol" version drops 3 months from now it'll probably be legitimately pretty neat, but as it stands it's got all of the disadvantages of 5.7 without any of the boons, on top of looking like an off brand hi-point carbine.

                I feel like 5.7 with the right load would make an excellent varmint cartridge, it’s close to .22 hornet. .223 is overpowered and unnecessarily loud for a bunch of applications.

                I feel like the LC carbine might make a nice varmint rifle if it’s reasonably precise. Unlike the PC carbine the LC doesn’t appear to be a takedown, which probably helps.

                >I feel like 5.7 with the right load would make an excellent varmint cartridge,
                Yes and no. Performance wise, yes it’s fine. But you aren’t spaced constrained on varmint hunts. I don’t care if I have a full length rifle because I’m not going through buildings. I’m sitting in a spot for awhile so weight isn’t an issue. Depending on the varmint, you might be shooting a lot (like for prairie dogs) and 5.7 ammo is way too expensive for that. A .17 is plenty with its effective range of 125ish yards. Further than that you want centerfire and more magnification. Why would I have 12x or higher scope on a 5.7 carbine shooting weaker, more expensive ammo when I can buy a cheap .223 bolt action that does the job better. Or an AR that’s also semi auto?

                I biased from prairie dog hunting but I think most of this applies to other varmints.

                Because pistol calibers let you build guns that are physically very small and light. This gun is not that. It's just as big and heavy as a traditional rifle and fulfills a similar role. It does not use the dimmensions or characteristics of 5.7 to it's advantage and is significantly worse off for it.

              5.7x28 loadings are anywhere from ~25-60 grains

              5.56x45 loadings are anywhere from ~35-85 grains (though there are some outliers beyond that at like 120 grains)

              Further, 5.56 has a bullet diameter of 5.7mm and a land diameter of 5.56mm
              5.7x28 has a bullet diameter of 5.7mm and a land diameter of 5.53

              So they are similar, but the 5.56 is almost always larger on average.

      Pretty cool tbh. A 5.7 bolt action that takes fiveseven mags would also be neat, really nice for small game and varminting

      Shooting 5.56 out of short barrels is pretty moronic if you think about it. Obviously if you need to do it for ammo logistics reasons then it can't be helped but if you have a round than can perform similarly with much less flash and blast in the supply chain then its an obvious choice.

      If 5.7 carbines are widely adopted could it slowly kill the 5.56 in military applications?

        Thats nonsense. The 5.7 will replace 9mm in time. And I like the round, simple as. But not 5.56.

          Obviously 5.7 isn't going to match the performance of 5.56 out of a longer barrel, what I'm saying is that if 5.7 carbines and pistols become common and 5.56 is relegated to longer barrel rifles, and 7.62 or 6.8 is in use for DMRs and LMGs, why not issue a few more rifles in 7.62 or 6.8 and drop 5.56 entirely, and simplify down to only two calibers.

Also it's still cheaper than .300blk by a lot. I don't know why dorks keep parroting this shit, it's down to 65¢/rnd and we were all paying that for fricking 9mm like a year ago.

        That’s nearly double steel cased .223. You can get brass for 37-38cpr. Why should I take 1 round of 5.7 for 1.75 rounds of .223? I can get .308 for that price. Shit I can reload for .308 with high quality bullets for not much more than $0.65 and that’s with ridiculous primer costs right now. It’s not a cost efficient round and doesn’t perform up to the price.

        Which was a one time thing. It’s down to 0.25-0.30.

      Controversial opinion, but I think the kel tec is actually superior without a stock or brace. It should be run with a single point sling using the SAS MP5K press out method for stability. Less added bulk and any collapsing or folding stock that size is going to suck big time anyway. Just going to be shitty, wobbly, and have annoyingly short length of pull. If there wasn't so much mystique surrounding SBRs in the US, I think this would be the most popular configuration.

        literally a cope for having no other support. it doesn't offer any stability, and everyone with a brain would choose to use a stock when they have the option.
        >Less added bulk and any collapsing or folding stock that size is going to suck big time anyway.
        there is literally nothing wrong with an AR buffer tube mounted to a properly designed folding hinge.

          Have you tried the press-out method? It does a pretty good job in stabilizing slow fire and tempers your hands against the recoil considerably. Obviously inferior to a stock, but certainly better than trying to shoot with two points of contact.

        A suppressor makes an enormous difference. The supersonic crack is loud, but the muzzle report is significantly louder. My 10.3" AR with no can will absolutely destroy your ears. With a can it's like shooting a 22lr unsuppressed. Not something you should do but it doesn't instantaneously cause LOTS of damage.

      The entire point of this is to share magazines with your pistol.

The ammo sharing loadout has been popular since black powder wheelgun-levergun combos in the 1870s.

      I just fricking hate it so much. There is easily an inch of slop between the top and bottom of that handguard and the barrel. Fricking why? Bring the barrel down an inch. Lower the height of the whole fricking thing. I want a god damn needle. Not a squareAR that fires 5.7.
      >SquARe 57

      And the stock looks like fricking ass, like they just bolted on any old uninspired AR stock with a cheap door hinge and called it good. I had such high hopes...I own a ruger 57 and could have had a nice carbine that shares mags to go along with it. But no. I only get the squarefat of longinus.

      Maybe. Just maybe this can be cleaned up with aftermarket but at that price point I might as well either go full PS90 or Keltec for peace cyberpunk aesthetics.

      Rails.
      But also the M1 was for guys who were going to be rucking around doing logistics shit in the backline but still needed something that was easier to aim than a handgun. It needed to be as light as possible and could be as basic as possible since it was the military in the 40s and you only got glass if you were sniping.

      Rails necessitate more weight because no one bakes in iron sites anymore and the gun is slated for the consumer market. As well, no one is really expecting buyers to ruck this over a mountain while carrying crates of ammo or rations. It's going to be a range toy or maybe a home defense weapon, in which case it just needs to be handy enough that it's easy to retrieve and short enough it doesn't smack into all your doorways.

      I remain skeptical of the effectiveness of 5.7 but credit where credit is due this seems pretty slick. Though I might be grading on a curve based on how crude and clunky anything relatively tacticool in the world of ruger is like the archangel stock for the mini or the PC charger but this time around they seem to be borrowing from the MCX with the general structure of the handguard plus you get the adjustment and folding with the stock unlike with

      only 89,000 hours in paint. Here's the charger version.

      that's coming down the pipe for sure, too easy with having a pic rail in the rear from the get-go so easy to swap from a brace setup to a stock for anyone who pays for a cuck stamp

        Not out of extremely short barrels... Like handguns and "handguns".

        >68gr xtreme defenders
        These aren't very good at penetrating IIIa. You're better off with TUI 115gr if you want reliable IIIa pen.

        The 68gr XD rounds are objectively better at wounding flesh and they're a great barrier blind round. They just do not reliably pen IIIa.

        The behind armor effect of those are anemic compared to S4M.

            Yea, 2400fps out of a handgun and close to 3k out of "handguns". The moly coat is part of the magic too.

            When you are getting 14ish inches of ballistic gel (behind armor even) penetration with a tumbling butthole bullet that also scatters frag all over the place across the entire wound channel? You are rolling deep. Out of all the vids I have seen of ammo for non meme handguns (magnum calibers), it is the most brutal I have seen. Yea yea you can get 9mm ammo that will defeat soft armor, but the actual terminal ballistics compared to S4M are trash.

              out of battery discharges are common with all the PCCs because the atf are a bunch of gays and consider the sear on the cz scorpion and everything else a machinegun if they have it so they had to take it off on the american ones. the kp9 has an out of battery safety on the bolt i think but there are still reports of out of battery discharges with it. also if u use aluminum ammo with a direct blowback pcc it can blow the case apart so some of the reports on them are because of that

              so far I've heard that this was from people bump firing with shitty ammo. I have an AKV and it's alright for what it is. It's tough enough to keep going even if it OOBD. Not so with the gen 1 scorp. It shouldn't have been 1000 bucks though, the market is what it is. I've even bumped mine with no issues with wolf, which is apparently better than win white box that I've heard of OOBD before.

        If you want to beat IIIA armor 9mm can do that with 68gr xtreme defenders and is $1.25 per round not over $3 per round. You can also buy the bullets and load your own for even less.

        I’ll admit that 5.7 is usually better than 9mm in pure performance but there isn’t anything that it can do that 9mm can’t also do. Certainly not to justify the cost. Not to mention you only have 3 pistol options.

            Even a G26 can with those. I like the 68gr XDs because they “should” beat IIIA and are also pretty good against flesh. Lose a little to JHPs but I can live with that

                It’s 2500, not 2800

                If the 16” barrel length gives you 300 fps more (which it probably does) than compare against an equal length AR shooting 27gr. The ps90 weighs more with worse ballistics for more money.

                Ironically the one place that transition was showed accurately in media was on Stargate SG-1. Early on in the series the SG-1 team used 9mm MP5s, but then they replaced them with P90s after realizing most of their enemies wore armor.

      Pistol grip mag location is the sweet middle ground between standard and bullpup rifles.
      If, with telescoped ammunition, we can get a warfighting intermediate rifle cartridge to fit into a pistol grip it's damn near the perfect solution.
