The government needs to fund the mass production of this cartridge!

People don't buy guns with this round because it is expensive.
This round is expensive because it isn't mass produced.
It isn't mass produced because people don't buy guns with it.

Unless the government do something, this will never replace the 9mm.

    Is it better than 9mm? Sure. Is it better than 10mm? Debatable. Will it ever replace any mainstream pistol cartridge? Not for another several decades, if at all.

      My Glock 20 will kill a bear. Will your tiny bullet kill a bear?

        A well placed 22lr shot from a break action rifle operated by an elderly Inuit woman can kill the largest grizzly bear ever killed on record.

          Because they fell for the 10mm meme and need to cope.
          10mm is a worse SD round than 9mm, .40, .45

      You should work on your English, and also not be such a fricking deadbeat.

      >Is it better than 9mm?
      As a varmint round, yes. Otherwise, no.

      Good to know that you're so confident in shot placement that you're comfortable carrying a Minirevolver with CB caps.

      He makes a valid observation. 10mm Auto offers a good boost in power with the right choice of ammo, 5.7mm lets you cut through soft armor which you're never encountering, and lets you do very shallow wounding on targets with harder body armor.

        >5.7mm lets you cut through soft armor which you're never encountering
        Most videos I've seen of pistol length 5.7 doesn't pen lvl 3 soft armor, the limitation is the tiny bullet (by weight) and the velocity is still not enough. In ballistic science you need to know the right combo of both bullet weight and velocity alongside bore and sectional density and everyone overlooks this and glorifies bad cartridges for specific roles. 22tcm out of a 5 inch (ie at least a 35-40gr bullet at ~2000-2100 fps) is enough to reliably pen lvl 3 soft armor every time or almost every time under standard conditions, but any wound to the wearer of said armor would basically just be ice picks. 5.7 is also around $1/rd and thus has literally no redeeming qualities IMO and will not since the 22 survival centerfire market in the US was already filled by half a dozen others invented in the 60s (the most popular being .223 rem, which is based off of .222 rem, which also has .221 fireball which can be formed from .223 brass for cheap, 22tcm itself is also from a 223 case, and you can just down load standard 223 to lower recoil if wanted).

    Pistol calibers are obsolete in modern military applications though no matter how many people try and cope about it, hell even intermediate calibers are quickly becoming sidelined now that advancements in body armor is getting better, 5.7 is basically doomed to be a niche round.

      Its less advancements and more of it becoming a more commonly issued thing on the front lines. Sure armor has gotten better over the years but the fact that its showing up at all on your average grunt is a bigger thing thats happened. The push for the new rifles is a response to that as well as the reality that modern optics and strategies are pushing engagement ranges out past the effective range of most intermediate cartridges.

    It's not a very good anyway
    Would be best if it's simply abandon
    Pistol makes less sense than 9mm chambering
    Carbine makes less sense than 223 chambering

      To justify taking away your guns. Same reason the CIA flooded black neighborhoods with crack cocaine, to justify dea spending and the war on drugs.

    Do they still add that lube to the cartridges so they function better in the P90 magazine?
    I know at one point they did.
    If they manufactured a separate non-lube line of ammo that was meant for pistols it would help reduce costs.
