Why hasn't the p90 ever been chambered in 9mm?

>>34701467
Because you think about butts all day.

>>34701472
b-but its a girls butt! It only has a feminine penis!

>>34701467
Because that would be pointless.

>>34701467
Cause then it'd be almost as obese as your mom

Because 9mm can't penetrate body armor.

>>34701467
Because it wasn't built to. FN wanted to make a NATO standard PDW but Germany got NATO to scrap the whole program when H&K didn't win the competition.

Because SMG are obsolete.

Are you telling me a sten gun WONT kill every enemy near me in a 50 mile radius?!?!

>>34702107
The trouble is it'll kill every friendly too

>>34702108
Its an honor to die by sten!

bcuz 5.7

>>34702121
You have a point

>>34702111
Being killed by discount home depot plumbing supplies is anything but honorable

>>34702139
The Sten isn't mearly a physical object anon. Sten is an idea, a symbol for those who refuse to be disarmed. It would be an honor to live or to die by the Sten.

A)P90 magazine needs straight wall cartridge and 9mm isn't a straight wall.
B)Mass of the bolt would have to be increased by roughly 50%, which would probably require some redesign and make it even more heavier.

>>34702237
Yeah the slight taper might need some canoodling. But straight mags exist for 9mm subguns. I don't think this factor is as important as it's made out to be.

>>34701467
OP I really don't know. For mil use? Yeah, I understand why it hasn't been done. For US civilians, with the boom in PCCs? I really don't know. I'd pay 600 for it easy. Just slap a fake supressor so the extra barrel length doesn't look totally retarded. Ah hell, I'd even consider jumping through the hoops to SBR it.

>>34702282
You are forgetting that P90 isn't just a normal mag, but has that "cartridge rotator". It's unknown how well would it work with much thicker round.

>>34702324
fine, I am willing to accept a 10mm p90

STOP USING LOGIC

>>34702324
It does have a helical ramp to rotate the cartridge. But a stack of tapered rounds will already be wanting to turn. I buy that it might get rid of double stack 50 rd mags. The taper may make double stack and turning impossible. But a single stack I don't see a whole lot of issue.

I could be wrong, but I'd like to see more than "taper makes impossible" assertion.

>>34702324
Wasn't there an older gun in 9mm that used a similar mag as the P90? Can't recall the make or model off the top of my head but I've seen pictures of it on here before.

>>34702468
I think there was a murikan' 9mm p90 style mag fed SBR

I've seen it too; currently searching for it. Also there was a shotgun that used similar mags to P90. It was called P-12, so I think that 9×19mm version is not that extreme actually.
