After reading this I envisioned you dropping the mic and walking off stage.Tavor- is in a useful, affordable, commonly available rifle caliber, lots of good accessories, can replace the trigger, good configuration options. And it does useful rifle things out of the box.
P90 is in an expensive .22 Magnum equivalent rare expensive caliber. Not very modular, can't do what rifles can. Its only advantage is small size, and to get there you have to SBR it.
I know but I had not idea where to put it, but the Tavor shoots 5.56 so.......Here’s my thought…
Neither are an AR Pattern Rifle.
So not only is this thread kind of pointless, it’s in the wrong spot. 😝
It’s in the proper spot now. 👍🏼I know but I had not idea where to put it, but the Tavor shoots 5.56 so.......
lol you might have a chance now!I have an x-95 - wanted a piston driven platform when I lived in a sandy urban environment. I still like to shoot it. Had to get a Ruger 57 when they came out but about the same time the 5.7 x 28 (which was already expensive) went through the roof. Going to sell or trade it when I get a chance.

The PS90 definitely gets attention every time it goes to the range. Makes a nice pair with the AR57.

I removed the barrel and sent it off to TROS to have it cut and rethreaded.@BigWaylon Is that a factory built ps90 sbr or did you have the barrel swapped out on it?
Curious. When would you chose a 16" barrel PS90 over 5.56mm 16" barrel bullpup?I don't understand the premise of this thread... They are both different "tools" for different purposes... It's like saying what is the better wrench, adj. crescent wrench or oil filter wrench?

Never. TBH both are bastardized versions of the original to comply with stupid ATF regulations...
That withstanding, there is more to this equation than barrel length... the 5.7 round & P90 combo was developed for a very special purpose, allow rear echelon troops to penetrate Soviet body armor should paratroopers suddenly drop behind the lines. I'm dubious that the COTS ammo that is available for 5.7 would penetrate any serious body armor currently in use by law enforcement or even civilians. Therefore, from a practical standpoint I really don't see the purpose of anything 5.7 for a practical purpose.
A X95 will easily reach out to 300+ and beyond and remain effective. A P90... not so much.
Now, if it's just for 2nd cool and fun, yeah it is a neat round and a neat gun. But pretending like they are in the same category or classification of "tool" intended to do the same "job" is absurd. Therefore, I still don't understand the premise of the thread.
