Shoot-out at Blackwater: "COMPLETE LINEUP
Along with the featured HV-40 and M2QCB, FNH gave our evaluators opportunities to test-fire a broad assortment of weapons from the company's lineup. The ever-popular P-90 subgun and Five-seveN pistol, both of which feed on 5.7-by-28mm ammo, earned typical accolades from the evaluators (see last year's Shoot-out report and video). The P-90, which carries a 50-round magazine atop the weapon, 'should be made available to ALL aircrew members and anyone else who deals with limited cockpit or turret space,' an evaluator noted.
The P-90 'is a great weapon for military vehicle crew members operating in tight quarters,' one of his colleagues echoed. 'The small, lightweight 5.7 rounds are extremely lethal and can defeat Class IIIA body armor out to 200 meters.'
A third evaluator � a regular at past Shoot-outs � had this to say about the P-90: 'For the past several years this weapon has been continually improved and received high praise. Based on the problems we're having in Iraq with people in vehicles trying to defend themselves during close-quarters ambushes, one has to wonder: When will the Army shed its 'white collar welfare' mind-set and seriously look at this weapon?'"
My notes (and other findings) related to the FN 5.7x28mm Weapon System (Ammunition, Five-seveN pistol, P90 PDW, PS90 carbine, CMMG Banshee Mk57, SCHV weapons in general, conversion of other weapons, accessories, reloading, etc.)
