Re: 5.7x28 - the real skinny?

I believe up here in DFW Carrollton PD issues both the pistol and the carbine to its officers, and I believe Addison PD issues it also, and they seem to be very happy with it. I do not know if they have had any officer involved shootings with it, but they seem to like it.

I do not know what ammo they issue, but having a 20+1 handgun and a 50+1 carbine issued to you can't be all bad.

I personally don't own one due to the difficulty in handloading the cartridge, to the point that in the 49th Lyman Manual it states things like some full length sizers won't size the case all they way even when touching and camming down on the shellholder.

Just my .02,
LeonCarr
