Who cares, when it's pumping 900 rounds into the bugger a min, hes gonna go down, no matter how "un-lethal" the round is...
My view exactly, particularly considering its effectiveness at defeating military-grade body armour. Of course, you've only got 50 on tap, but reloading is ridiculously quick and easy.
Not only does the P90 have a whole range of ammo designed for it for every application, it also has the FiveseveN pistol to compliment it (they use the same 5.7mm ammo)
Well, it hasn't got that many types; there's the standard SS190 ball round, the SB193 subsonic, plus IIRC a tracer round, a blank and a drill round. I should think, given the magazine design, that a JHP round would work well, but of course they're illegal for military use.
The Five-seveN is a lovely pistol, fits well in the hand, great gun. My one complaint would be that it feels like a toy; it's so very plasticky, and most of the weight is in the magazine, so I'm a bit concerned about its centre of gravity moving as the mag empties. But I think it's a fair compromise; it's light, it's got a monstrous magazine capacity, and its ballistic performance is unmatched. Assuming you've got a P90 as well, at the ranges you use the pistol its centre of gravity won't be a major concern.
These two weapon systems are my faveourite submachine gun and sidearm respectively, and its sad that neither have been done justice in OFP...
Agreed - it's my favourite system IRL as well, though I do have a soft spot for the utterly ergonomic F2000 (with its suspiciously-shaped grenade module and lovely M303)...
