I believe its marketed as a pistol round.If i'm correct is their any documentation to substantiate it.At my club we can only shoot in the ipsc pits with pistol amunition and members of the board and range officers dont have a clue about this bullet.
The Five-Seven:The P90 entered service in 1994. It is a selective fire, straight blowback-operated firearm with semi-automatic and fully automatic firing modes. It is fully ambidextrous, with an ambidextrous fire selector and charging handle, and downward ejection of spent cases. The P90 is built in a unique bullpup configuration that places the 50-round translucent magazine above the firearm, parallel to the barrel (with the rounds perpendicular to the barrel)
Is it pistol or rifle ammo for the purposes U are stating? Don't know what to say. The rifle came first - but it can be used in either a rifle or pistol. U also have 9mm/40cal/45ACP carbines now. And, those are pistol cartridges.Production history: Designed 2000
.357 SIGU don't typically see bottle neck cartridges in a handgun
Buy a Fiveseven Pistol, bring it with you and them them its a "pistol" round. But your PS90 will also shoot it toolucas said:At my club we can only shoot in the ipsc pits with pistol amunition.
I don't think thats going to help him be allowed to shoot it at the range.Promoted Pawn said:It's a "PDW' round.
ShipWreck said:Actually, the 5.7 ammo was designed for the P90 submachine gun first. After the P90 was design and in service, the Five-Seven handgun was created. The ammo obviously works in both.
