They do make civilian p90, called ps90. For all your home defense needs.

5.7: For when you hate your wallet as much as you love firearms.

[-] rtxn@lemmy.world 16 points 10 months ago

Let's be honest, civilians don't choose the PS90 for its performance as a firearm. They buy it because it looks cool.

I can't tell if that was a pun, but if it was, well done.

[-] FartsWithAnAccent@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Accurate take.

[-] TragicNotCute@lemmy.world 14 points 10 months ago

I just chuck half dollar coins at intruders and skip the middleman.

I'm poor and use used D-cell batteries.

Whoa whoa... this isn't Shay Stadium....

I feel that the whole point of the P90 is the small form factor and the full auto combined with a small fast projectile that is unlikely to over penetrate. Given the longer barrel and lack of full auto of the PS90 you might as well get a five seven for home defense if you want that Gucci factor.

I'm not any kinda fun person. But I did once get a chance to use an FN FiveSeven at a range once and it was fun. I was shocked at how much more I liked it over the 9mm's.

[-] BleatingZombie@lemmy.world 0 points 10 months ago

Don't they fire 9mm pistol rounds?

[-] Mac@mander.xyz 8 points 10 months ago
[-] Psaldorn@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

That's why the accompanying pistol is called the "Five-seveN"

[-] BleatingZombie@lemmy.world 0 points 10 months ago

Huh. TIL. The one I was looking at must have been chambered differently

[-] LilPappyWigwam@lemm.ee 11 points 10 months ago

Really unlikely. The whole point behind the P90 was as an alternative to 9mm and FN decided on 5.7x28mm. I've heard of (9mm) M11s being modified to look like P90s...maybe that's what you saw?

[-] FinalRemix@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

The Fiera Ferrari of guns... interesting.

[-] fiah@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 10 months ago

if you ever find a 9mm P90 let us know

[-] bloopernova@programming.dev 4 points 10 months ago

12.7mm P90.

Would certainly be spectacular.

[-] TopRamenBinLaden@sh.itjust.works 1 points 10 months ago

Russia kinda tried this already.

A community for your defence shitposting needs

Rules

1. Be niceDo not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.

2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes

If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.

3. Content must be relevant

Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.

4. No racism / hatespeech

No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.

5. No politics

We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.

6. No seriousposting

We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.

7. No classified material

Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.

8. Source artwork

If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.

9. No low-effort posts

No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.

10. Don't get us banned

No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.

11. No misinformation

NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.
