Not really a PDW but, Keltec Sub2k
Literally slapping a brace on a Glock does the same thing. Kinda like the ole Luger artillery pistols.

I'm still surprised we haven't seen a magazine in grip format PDW that takes Glock mags. Such an obvious design.

A brace on a Glock is ok certainly, but a dedicated PDW (think B&T MP9, H&K mp7, modenrized polymer MAC) that takes Glock mags would be superior.
With a fixed barrel, could probably do 1-1.5" at 25yd; MPA's MAC's are doing that (although their barrels are made on the same machines as their competition PRS rifles.) And having a longer barrel allows for a handguard for mounting lights and general comfort; a braced Glock is rather cramped.
There's already one design that is basically 90% done already: the Gonzc GA9 pistol, which took modified Beretta 92 mags. Redesign it with a polymer grip frame, the ability to take glock mags, a Pic rail on the back for mounting braces/stocks, and make a mlok tubular hanguard, and there you go.
Thing would be cheap and simple to manufacture, and any company that did would be selling them by the ton:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claridge_Hi-Tec/Goncz_PistolA mag in grip format is especially advantageous for PCC Rifles, as it makes for near bullpup levels of compactness. The Kel Tec Sub2000 is only 29" long, vs 36" for a Ruger PCC.
