Unless the X57 is out, a 300BO Krink is going to be my house warming gift to myself after we move in  ETA: not for a PDW/bag gun as discussed in this thread, I just think it’s awesome. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By cyclone: Thinking of getting into a 9mm PDW...........of the three, which do you guys like? MP5K type, Stribog or the PSA DOE clone? MP5K with a folding stock/brace is my vote. I've got the 1st gen, so it dosen't havea tri-lug or threaded barrel. But it sure makes it compact, and instantly ready to rumble. Overall I prefer my regumar MP5, because I've wanted one ever since the 80s. But for a compact small backpack PDW, the K model is the better choice, and usually what I take with me if I travel (that and my take-down "lunchbox" SA Edge Evac AR. Both are VERY concealable and inconspicuous PDWs. So is my 5.5" SA Saint PDW, which I also take on tripsat times. I would hand my wife the MP5K and I would use the Evac or PDW. They're all pretty loud, but if I ever have to use them, hearing loss will be low on my immediate priority list. |

It’ll only fire once if loaded and folded. I get the appeal of fire while folded. I’ve had a couple. But after the novelty wears off about halfway through the first mag. I can’t think of a single time I’ve ever fired them while folded. Same can be said for chassis systems. It’s cool that they fire while folded. But I’ve never used that feature much. Especially since the whole point for me is putting a stock/chassis on a pistol caliber is making it something I can shoulder. |

I see it more if a capability instead of a feature that would be intentionally used. If there’s time to unfold/extend the stock you obviously would.

Doing it suppressed, with subs, and firing while folded lets you fire a single round with the BCG unable to cycle. It is noticeably quieter to me. I’ve used it a few times with pests around the house. |

He seems to have gotten away with firing that LAW adaptor folded, but I don't think my dentist would recommend it.
 I really don't see the merit of firing a folder with the stock stowed. They can be put into proper operational configuration so quickly, and your odds of hammering a target are so much greater, that I struggle to understand the merit. ETA: As a substitute bolt lock, I'm sure it was quieter, and I doubt that a 9x19 puts too much stress on that LAW capture plate. |

The less attention I draw, the better. I do like the Law Folder but it does add noticeable weight for the tradeoff of a shorter profile. Then again, every choice is a tradeoff to some extent. 1. Small backpack or sling pack with Rattler/AR15 config 2. Small shoulder/computer bag with MP5K/TP9 or possibly even a Scorpion Micro 3. Fannypack or on-the-body carry with Flux Raider/USW config to be much more discreet. . |

RE: the 17 Designs folder
I thought it was significantly shorter than the LAW when folded, but it is only about 5/8" shorter. It does save about 7 ounces, though

Mag in grip is cool, but without FA it’s just another 9mm PCC that’s bigger, heavier, and uses more expensive mags compared to a Glock in a chassis….which can do everything a TP9 can do easier, lighter, and cheaper. It does look tits though

Yeah, the AP5-P is the same thing as a K. The AP5/AP5 Core is the full-size MP5 clone, the AP5-P is the K clone. https://atlanticfirearms.com/century-ap5-p-HG6035ab-n (braced) https://atlanticfirearms.com/ap5-p-core-HG6035AL-N (with sling) Atlantic tends to have the best prices on the AP5s that I've seen. |

This. Different nomenclature for same thing, so I tend to just say full size or K clone instead of AP5 or AP5-P because no one would know what that means They also sell an AP5-M which is a K size clone without the trilug or threaded barrel similar to the original MP5K |

Here's an interesting option. What round for 5" 5.56?

There's a gel test out there somewhere showing it still being effective from a 7.5" barrel. |

Shot the Flux Raider 365 or whatever it's called again today. Here's my take aways:
CONS: Unpleasant to shoot. The 3" barrel is really not far from your face and the recoil is surprisingly spicy for 9mm. PROS: It was insanely accurate and I was hitting within a half inch at 15 yards with garbage ammo, and very quickly. It has ruined my dream of buying an MP5 as there's literally no reason to when I can get the same ballistics as that but with something that weighs less than my 1911s. CONS: Now I need to build a "real" version so currently saving up for the FUSE. Will come with the longer mags plus a couple extra inches of barrel length will make it nice and further from my face. I will also go down a rabbit hole and end up with both a threaded long-ass barrel and a micro 9mm can. this will literally likely replace all my other "long" guns not of rifle caliber. Additional sidenote. ACWs shoot frickin lights out, and the MCX in 300BO with subs and a can is also tits. That is all. |

I shot my Home Badger with 2 different cans today. I saw someone mention that this thing sucks shooting supers and I concur. It's really accurate but managed to easily jam and lock a 10round Lancer mag in the receiver.
 Other than light weight, I'm not really impressed with it.This thread has been a great conversation and I appreciate everyone's input. Even the OP. My main takeaway from all this is, at the end of the day, all our choices suck. Everything we're doing here is just putting lipstick on a pig in one form or fashion. My understanding is that 300AAC was an attempt to address this gap, but its only an incremental improvement at best. Our civilian firearm industrial complex is failing us. We need something with rifle terminal ballistics out to at least 200 yds in the package size of a small 9mm PDW. |

We need something with rifle terminal ballistics out to at least 200 yds in the package size of a small 9mm PDW. I think 200yds might be a bit more range than many are looking at in this thread. If you’re in a city, a thing 200yds away probably has many pieces of cover/concealment and exit routes between you and it. More effective range is always better, but for 200yd shots I’d want at least 2-3x magnification to ensure proper target confirmation. Don’t wanna be the internet lawyer, but it’s gonna be tough in a court of law to claim you were threatened for a dude 200yds away and had to whip out the Honey Dick with spicy 110gr TTSXLMNOP 300BO to save yourself. I like all the gats in this thread. My PS90 is probably my go to if I believe I need something to meet these requirements.  Attached File |

Everything we're doing here is just putting lipstick on a pig It is hard being almost always objectively correct, ruggedly handsome and just a fuckin stud in general but I guess we all have our crosses to bear…. You nailed it on all being tarted up pigs. Probably part of why it fascinates me, because there really isnt a perfect answer to the niche (other than to say fuck it, edc handgun, training, actual fucking rifle for doing rifle shit). |

PDWs are certainly a limited use role, but in all honesty we'll hopefully never use or need any of the stuff we train with unless we're tip of the spear guys. I'm not. I'm realizing I'm old. If there is neighborhood SHTF I would likely be better cooking and being a field medic than dropping nods and slotting floppies. One of those is more fun to larm though, says the guy who just took the trash out under NODs  |

16” barrel Henry 357 which is considered a small and handy rifle.
14.5” SBR Rattler is 20” suppressed and 16” without can Flux Glock is 16” without can, 12” without. Sig 365 flux is 10”. About the size and weight of a 1911. People don’t appreciate how small this stuff is till it’s in comparison. If you’re ok with 9mm, which size would you rather actually carry around?  Attached File |
