That would be nice (I like my CAA MCK), but something in the 8 to 10 inch barrel range would give a velocity boost, while something like a Roni won't change the velocity.

Some industry input.

Cheap 5.7 ammo looks like it’s already gone from most wholesalers. The pricier FN loads are still available.

Dealer cost is $529. Street price should be 6 or less.

I will also mention that a pistol-grip fed braced PCC (a form factor like a B&T TP9 or a Kel-Tek CMR-30 or even MP7) would be a dream gun. Mag-forward designs like the AR15-based CMMG are great in most respects, but really suck when it comes to length and weight over a mag-in-grip design.
If Ruger makes a decent MP-7 (or CMR-30/TP9/etc.) shape gun that takes their 57 pistol mags, they might actually be able to get military/LEO contracts again.

I was thinking a CMR-30 style of pistol built on the R-57's action (like the CMR/PMR relationship). If they make it with a 6" to 12" barrel and no stock (just a pic rail like they put on their new version of the PC, to take any MCX-compatible braces of which there are many) they will be golden.

I'm not in the suppressor game yet and I don't know all the ins and outs, but to a guy like me a Ruger branded suppressor has an appeal despite the price. Ruger has been around forever and as long as suppressors remain legal I expect Ruger will continue to support that product. The other more specialized suppressor companies are probably great to work with as well, but due to a general lack of diversity in their business it seems more likely to me that they could be put out of business by regulations even if suppressors remained legal, therefore losing support down the line.

Now, maybe this is only a fear of mine because I don't know the ins and outs as well as I should, but it is what it is.

Looking at the pdf of the instruction manual on Ruger's website, it has a serialized 'fire control insert' and a non-serialized polymer grip frame.

That does open up some interesting possibilities.

I didn't notice that, but sure enough part #17 in the manual is a serialized FCG. That is a big deal for the potential aftermarket. A chassis to turn it into a compact braced pistol would be very easy, relatively speaking, and the options much greater compared to a drop-in option like the RONI or Glock Flux brace. While I think the ergos of the Flux 320 brace are kind of lacking (slide release access sucks balls, no way to easily get to the factory safety), it provides a decent design concept to start with for anyone looking to make a braced chassis for this gun. A USW-type chassis would also be good but I'd prefer something a bit more substantial, making it closer to a PDW (like a CMR-30 or MP7) than a stocked pistol like the USW or B&T TP9.

ETA: honestly the CMR-30 is about the best blueprint from which to make a chassis for this gun. Good charging handle ergos, add a rear pic rail a la MCX or Ruger's newer PC instead of a collapsing stock, no need to alter safety location (which I assume is tied to the FCG), keep the handguard length close to the same with a shorter barrel, and you'd be set.

Alternately Ruger could just almost-copy the CMR-30 (not like they have issues copying Kel-Tec designs) and make it themselves as a factory option, rather than a chassis conversion.

the subs still penetrate well and tumble in flesh (even after barriers, as the rounds are all very barrier-blind) giving surprisingly good wound ballistics

While that would be hilarious it makes zero sense to produce that much of a firearm, as I assume anybody who wants a glock style frame probably doesn't want the ruger slide sitting on it, so why not just do your own FCG as well.

Aftermarket frames, like for FN mags or different grip styles, make some sense. Chassis's for PCC style firearms make even more sense.

5.7x28 Subsonic gives you a noise level comparable to .22lr / .32 acp, but with much better terminal performance:

As an aside, much of what we know about 5.7 performance is due to the tireless testing done by Buffman. If you like his videos, he could definitely use more subscribers.
