[QUOTE="Remrem, post: 23275"]
I could see a variant as a Spec Ops weapon. Chamber it for 454 Casul, basically a longer more powerful .45. The 454 Casul is overkill as a pistol round and has a LOT of kick but this design tames the kick, and probably the right stock would help more. A bit more barrell and you can have a knockdown round with range. It would figure to do very well in an urban fight.

A gun chambered for 454 Casull can shoot the .45 acp. Thus...you have a subsonic round option,and the weapon can have a threaded barrell for a silencer. A smaller round can be loght loaded to be subsonic..but loses it's stopping power. The 45 was always subsonic and is very well known and trusted.

Such a weapon can be evolved beyond what it is now. Getting a potent hitting SMG not prone to climbing, easy to silence,good penetration or stopping punch....it may initially be seen as a limited niche but can turn into a weapon used more. We may see more small unit battles in the near future. The large scale Fulda Gap scenario or even Desert Storm are less likely ,so weapons may be less "mass production" and more mission efficient.
