Let's talk PDW's

@LittleLebowski and @HeavyDuty have me looking at the Evo3 now...

I like that I could also get a matching rifle for the two grand I was I gonna drop on a B&T...

Just don't read the "Teach me about STI's" thread...

For a second there I thought that you said "STD's".

They can be quite expensive also.

From a helicopter, no less. IIRC DSS did not do nearly as well.

It's true.

Every damn movie.

Or the action rifle thread. I can only blame myself.

Just saying, that rifle of yours would be much more pleasant to shoot with a suppressor

Heh. We will see. Or maybe the next one will get one.

We will take care of you. The sooner you start the paperwork, the better.

Because it doesn’t suck as bad out of a short barrel? At 2k, if that expansion threshold is correct, it would be 80yrds for a 556 gold dot. Good enough for your hallway.

110 TSX has a threshold of around 1300, based what I could find. That is about 300 yrds, from a 8-9” barrel. A lot more room for error.

There is no way a 7.5” 556 is ideal. A 300 in the same length makes more sense, then there is the subsonic fun. But if you like to thrown fireballs and make noise, go with that shorty 556.

ETA: not going to use a 4.5” ar for anything rifle caliber.

OK.

@Wake27, @Corse, @deflave,

Both 55gr and 64gr Gold Dot will still reliably expand down to 1800fps. The 64gr will apparently hit 1900-1950fps out of a 7.5 barrel.

Given that, I'm sure there's other rounds that will still perform out of a 7.5", even if limited to inside 100 yards. I think the TSX is one of them.

ETA: I'd also like to point out that in 1994, a 4.5" AR was used to great effect by CIA Ground Branch Task Force RECIPROCITY for an in-extremis hostage rescue of an ODA in Columbia.

The TSX's do show good expansion at the lower speeds IME.

I've been trying to convince people of the utility of a 4.5" for years. But on a totally unrelated topic.

Heh. We will see. Or maybe the next one will get one.

One word. Thunderbeast.

While I support enabling, a can on top of an 18” gun sounds terrible for anything that doesn’t involve a bipod.
