Tell me /k/, what would it take to get NATO to adopt .357 SIG as it's primary pistol cartridge?
Every 9mm in the world magically disappearing from existence.

Bribes. Also Germans deciding it was "their design".. look what they did to the p90 when it didnt go their way.
>>34068091
All other caliber bullets and pistols along with the facilities to produce them vanishing.

If the Germans didn't make it, you'll never see it. Germans are the poster child for autistic screeching.
Also 10mm > .357sig
>>34068209
Yeah, but normal people can shoot .357 sig somewhat comfortable.
>>34068091
the only reason to change from 9mm to retard 9mm is... well there isn't. the only reason to go to .40s&w or 10mm would be more KE and larger diameter ball ammo, probably paired with a "not a hollowpoint hague stfu" defensive round design like the Xtreme penetrator meme round.
>>34068091
Widespread drunkenness, or an overwhelming desire to decrease efficiency and increase expense.
>>34068091
It does anything that +p 9mm does
>>34068475
And 60-75% service life on all parts at best. 9mm does just fine.
>>34068091
The only reason to switch pistol cartridges at this point would be for something with better armor penetration capabilities. Problem is, the German one is shit, FN's got cucked by the retard Germans, and there's no way in hell NATO would ever adopt 7.62 Tokarev.
We're stuck with 9mm for the foreseeable future.
NATO suddenly needing a new service pistol designed for anything more than dropping unarmored darkies and children.
>>34068091
You to personally jerk off everyone in NATO who is in charge of ammo standards

> Modern production 7.62x25 pistol and JHP
I want this so badly.
>>34068091
Go back in time, and give the plans for .357 SIG to a German gun maker.
To really seal the deal and make sure it has no competition, give the plans for 9mm to a Belgian gun maker.
>>34068091
A sidearm to actually be relevant?
>>34068091
Nothing. The .357 is for operators and elite civilians only. 10mm is for autistic tryhards.
>>34068091
Changing the laws of physics.
