Is 5.7 a meme caliber? It looks like a glorified 22 magnum. Give me a reason why it isn't shit.

>inb4: armor piercing
AP ammo is banned now

because armor piercing

Muh wound vectors
Muh tumbling
Muh capacity
Muh low recoil
Muh accuracy

That's pretty much all I've heard about it, just wait for Marisa to show up.

They're actually pretty cool guns. My friend has one and I like shooting his.

If they weren't so fucking overpriced I would actually pick one up myself. My LGS actually stocks reasonably priced 5.7 so it isn't even unobtanium
>>
Why does nobody else make pistols in this caliber? I want a p232 in 5.7
>>
How feasible is reloading 5.7? I kinda want a p90 but if ammo is going be absurdly overpriced and scarce, what's the point.
>>
>>30322486
Because it's a niche caliber intended for an SMG, and big three pistols and carbines sell better.

>50 round mags in p90s
>Almost no felt recoil
>Decent velocity and trajectory

>.22 magnum
You people only make yourselves look dumb by posting this.

It's similar to .17 HMR with a slightly bigger bullet.

iirc, they use a special coating or lacquer in order to feed reliably.

Thats shitty. Fn could easily tailor a CC load for a like 3" barrel. That tiny round is perfect for a high cap ppk sized pistol

Those look like pellets.

Yeah, I did a little searching and found that the consensus is to just not reload it. But ammo doesn't,t seem that expensive either for such an uncommon caliber. Around 55ยข/round it seems.

>>30322309
literally because armor piercing
also, cool, fun gun

There is one with a 30 round magazine
But I forgot which one

The point is that as a self defense pistol, a 9mm with hollow points would do the job as good or even better than a Fibe Sebben
And 5.7mm is not going to impress 10mm /.357 Magnum fags like me in any way
