If it chambered a .223 I think I would be very tempted to take out a second mortgage and pick one up but I have to go with the guys who have an issue with cost of ammo and the ammo itself. I’m not even that big of a fan of the .223 but IMHO 5.7 is just too small a round and for the cost it’s just too much for going out and having a good time. All that being said it would be cool to actually shoot one, I have held them but never gotten to go out and shoot it.
The PS90 does nothing for me visually. IMO the PS90 and the Beretta CX4 are the two most ugly "rifles" out there today. And if I don't like the look of a gun, no matter how great the caliber or how comfortable it is, I won't even entertain buying one.
I'll stick with my AR. That's a damn fine lookin' gun! :smt023
Well, funny U say that - the only other rifle I like is the Beretta CX4. I have another EOtech and a sling for it, and the CX4 Storm is my next gun purchase - in the next month (just looking for a good deal)Quote:

The Cx4 is also a very cool good feeling gun but again the fact that its chambering a 9, 40, or 45(I think) kinda makes it about as useful as my sidearm Ill be it a bit more accurate (ok a lot more accurate) and really with the CX4 you can only have like I think a 20 round Mag... Just not practical but very cool... it’s amazing how often those to things coincide.Quote:

Well, a 20 round mag for a rifle ain't bad - an AR typically has only a 30 round mag.Quote:

I want the 9mm CX4 because it's almost 1/3 the price to shoot. And, I like the looks and the light weight. I've been tempted to buy an AR many times this year. I've passed every time. I even thought that I'd get the Sig 556 - in order to have the piston option. But once I held it, I found it too front heavy...
Sorry guys... I'll have my CX4 soon and my PS90 - and that will be my only 2 rifles...
I was going to get a FN Bolt action rifle until I found out how much 308 ammo costs... :rolleyes:
~ both of those "weapons" have the appearance of a bad movie props out of the Star Wars movie bars scene.
~ prehaps maybe even the "AMC Pacers" of the gun world .
Well, that's your opinion. Feel free to say you don't like something. We all have our likes and dislikes. But don't run down stuff. That's sorta against the spirit of the forum here.Quote:

Of course, I'll need to get my AR first...
I think you're being a bit overly sensitive here. You posted a pic of your gun not with a simple caption like "Here's my new gun" but with, "C'mon-You know you want one". A caption like that is not going to get simple congratulatory remarks. People are going to give their thoughts on the gun. You fanned the flames with that caption and now you're crying foul when people are giving their opinions about the looks of the gun or the caliber? It's a bit unrealistic to expect people to reply with only "Great gun!"Quote:

But never mind... The gun sucks if you don't like it. Don't buy one if you don't like it. It's the most horrible gun in the world if you don't like it. The gun is so ugly unless you like it.
Don't read this thread. I was a fool for suggesting that this gun was cool and that others would want one. What was I thinking. I "left" myself open for wide spread ridicule by people who can't be polite. Damn, I'm an idiot.
Never mind...

You posted the pic on an open forum and people gave their honest opinions. I know I'm not going to be a "yes man" and tell you it's the most beautiful gun in the world. I didn't comment on the cartridge because I don't know enough about it to speak intelligently on the subject, but I do know what appeals to me ascetically and it's not the PS90. I think the thing is absolutely hideous. You may think my AR is hideous. That's your right. Franky, you should be a little more secure about yourself and shouldn't give a rat's ass what people think about your gun; if it works for you then great. Who cares what other people think? I know I could care less what 99% of the people on this forum think of my guns or me. The bottom line is, you put it out there on the forum, expect responses you may not like. Don't get all pissy because people challenge the looks or the caliber or price or whatever. You've been on enough forums and on this one long enough to know that everyone was not going to just jump on the bandwagon and fall in love with the PS90 just because you have one. To expect only people who love the gun to respond to your post is very naive.
No melodrama... Just being honest :mrgreen:
I suck. So does my gun.
There - a new bite for the 10 pm news. :mrgreen:
Whatever. Twist it any way it makes you happy.Quote:
