Motoduck,
I see your point in clearing /mafunction drills with the PS90. It is a lot more difficult as compared to an AR15. However, I think with the high capacity mags, reduction in recoil and muzzle blast compensates for those shortcomings. I use to keep Two 30 rounders loaded with 25 rounds each for reliability for my AR15 ( HD gun). The PS 90 can fire the same amount of rounds without reloading. For HD purposes, I think 50 rounds is more than sufficient.
It is very hard to replace an AR15 in terms of overall performance, but in an SBR format. Ar15s result in excessive blast that is just disorienting and makes my ears ring for days.
It is also not adviseable to fire such a short AR inside vehicles. The blast effect is just compounded. Short ARs also suffer from a substantial decrease in velocity. This makes them a poor choice in terms of ballistic performance.
The PS90 offers an alternative to the AR SBR . The Reduced powder minimizes recoil resulting in better accuracy and follow-up shots. It still fires the 5.56mm projectile and is not prone to the extreme blast like short ARs. The direct blowback action makes it reliable, even in a shortened format.
It is also an easy gun to learn to use efficiently. The ergonomics are excellent and is designed to be fully ambidextrous. The design is very user friendly. I just hate the original white ring sight. What was FN thinking of when they decided to go with that junk. Don't get me wrong, I still love my ARs, For HD, I preffer SBRs , They do well especially in confined spaces/ vehicles. In that application, it is hard to outperform the PS90.
