    SALW Guide Global distribution and visual identification FN P90 Fact sheet https://salw-guide.bicc.de FN P90 SALW Guide FN P90 A personal defense weapon (often abbreviated PDW) is a compact semi- automatic or fully-automatic firearm similar in most respects to a submachine gun, but firing an (often proprietary) armor-piercing round, giving a PDW better range, accuracy and armor-penetrating capability than submachine guns, which fire pistol-caliber cartridges.The P90 was designed to have a length no greater than a man's shoulder width, in order to be easily carried and maneuvered in tight spaces, such as the inside of an armored vehicle. To achieve this, the weapon's design utilizes the unconventional bullpup configuration, in which the action and magazine are located behind the trigger and alongside the shooter's face, so that there is no wasted space in the stock. The P90's dimensions are also minimized by its unique horizontally mounted feeding system, wherein the box magazine sits parallel to the barrel on top of the weapon's frame. Overall, the weapon has an extremely compact profile. Technical Specifications Category Submachine Guns Operating system Straight blowback, closed bolt Cartridge FN 5.7 x 28mm Length 500 mm Feeding n/a Global distribution map The data on global distribution and production is provided primarily by the BwVC1, but also from national and regional focal points on SALW control; data published by think tanks, international organizations and experts; and/or data provided by individual researchers on SALW.

  • Experiences with the FN
    Experiences with the FN P90 Written by Sandy Wall The Houston, TX, Police Department was the first American law enforcement agency to deploy with the FN P90 submachine gun on its SWAT team. We received five P90s into our inventory in 1999 along with several thousand 5.7mm rounds of ammunition. After a short period of in-house testing and training, the P90s became operational within our entry team elements. The P90 has been utilized primarily at the point man positions where its CQB features are best utilized. The first time I saw a P90, I couldn’t help but notice how unique and interesting it looked. It was fun to shoot and no one could argue about the innovations the engineers at Fabrique National in Belgium had featured on this weapon. The fact remained, however, that the 5.7x28mm cartridge was unproven. We had all the energy data and gelatin shots, but had no documentation on what the round would do on a real human body. It may sound morbid, but in the tactical world the proof is in the real deal. That missing element was always in the back of our minds. Well, the jury is now in. Houston SWAT was involved with the first and only lethal engagement with the weapon to date. I first wrote an article on the P90 for the Texas Tactical Police Officers Association (TTPOA) Command Magazine. Then, as well as now, I carried a P90 as my primary weapon. I have shot thousands of 5.7mm rounds in training and continue to deploy with the weapon on every SWAT situation and high-risk warrant I respond to.

Chambered in the same 7.62x39, the rifle was designed with a number of changes over the standard Type 81 to support its role. A thicker and longer chrome lined barrel was added for better retained accuracy during high volume firing, a folding bi-pod was attached to the barrel for firing support and the front sight was moved to the end of the barrel to provide a longer sight radius for added precision. A top mounted carrying handle was mounted to the rear sight post and the rear stock changed to “club foot” style to allow the user to fire from the prone position more comfortably.

  • Propositions of Constructional Designs of Personal Deffence Weapon of The
    Capt M.Sc. Andrzej WRÓBLEWSKI Prof. Ph.D. D.Sc. Adam WIŚNIEWSKI Military Institute of Armament Technology PROPOSITIONS OF CONSTRUCTIONAL DESIGNS OF PERSONAL DEFFENCE WEAPON OF THE PDW CLASS The course of previous works, carried out within the framework of the NATO programme, concerning the de- velopment of the ammunition and personal defence weapon, were presented. Two competing rounds (Belgian 5.7x28 mm and of German 4.6x30 mm) and two kinds of pistols adapted for them, were described. The construc- tions of Polish submachine gun were proposed depending on the chosen rounds. 1. The introduction At the beginning of the eighties in the United States of America the start of the new research programme - Joint Service Small Arms - began. Within the framework of this programme the new idea of the future small arms family should be worked out and the constructions which answer the needs of the army best should be chosen. It was expected to work out the weapon for these soldiers who use small arms as the secondary self-defence weapon. It refers to the crews of fighting vehicles, heavy weapon as well as signallers, drivers, etc. Nowadays this kind of soldiers accounts for over 60% manpower of modern armies. As a consequence it was supposed that this weapon could have the round range limited to 200 m. The most important feature of Personal Defence Weapon (PDW ) had to be the penetration ability of ballistic shields of new generations. Such standardized shield is the shield definite in the programme of Cooperative Research Into Small Arms Tech- nology ( CRISAT ).

  • Procurement and Policy: Police
    A TASER International representative displays a prototype for the TASER XREP, a 12-gauge wireless neuro-muscular incapacitation projectile, at a trade show for the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police in Montreal, August 2008. © Christinne Muschi/Reuters Procurement and Policy 3 POLICE USE OF EMERGING WEAPONS TECHNOLOGY INTRODUCTION In most Western countries, two factors condition the use of force by domestic security agencies: operational guide- lines and the type of weaponry available. The relationship between use-of-force policy and weapons procurement is close but complex. The adoption of new weapons may call for new policies, while the need to meet international norms in policing, for example, can affect weapons procurement. Market forces and trends in both civilian and military firearms development and procurement also play influential roles in the adoption of new weapons technology. On the streets of cities such as Chicago, Manchester, and Marseille, police officers have increasingly adopted so- called ‘less-lethal’ weapons into their day-to-day activities. A comprehensive review of the use of these weapons by Western police has not yet been undertaken, but police experience in France,1 the United Kingdom, and the United States suggests that countries are facing similar use-of-force challenges that are drawing them to use these weapons. By examining recent trends in police weapons technology and procurement by law enforcement agencies, as well as their use-of-force policies, this chapter highlights the alignment of policies and practices in a small but important sample of the West’s ‘leading-edge’ states. Among the chapter’s conclusions are the following: • Aside from the use of new materials to reduce weight and facilitate customization, law enforcement firearms have not recently experienced significant technological development.
