why didn't the vector catch on?
>>
No one likes PCCs. Also the whole recoil system was dependent on full auto, which of course civilians couldn't have
>>

SMGs in general have fallen out of favor. It doesn't really perform significantly better than existing SMGs to warrant getting one for large contracts ie; police/military, for civilian >>64747233.

>>64747223
the vector delayed blowback system is heavy as fuck, and is pretty much unnecessary in a semi-auto firearm. other PCCs are half the weight with pretty much nonexistant recoil

>>64747223
FRT's may make it a thing but its too late

The world just wasn't ready for a leap towards greatness.

Why don't they make it for 5.7?

Vastly better, cheaper, more durable and reliable alternatives like short barrel AR-15s. They are in use with shithole militaries, thailand, philippines, bangladesh, limited use in ukraine and US law enforcement
>It's tits with an FRT
The only reason I ever bought one, the autistic smiles it forces on peoples faces that shoot it are priceless. 3,000 rounds of .45 through it in a few months, no issues other than a few break-in stoppages and a dud federal round.

its got an FRT now.
>>64747321
our flgs is amazed that his warehouse stock of them have all sold since thanksgiving.

Because it has no more firepower than John Dillinger's full-auto 1911, despite being made a century in the future and weighing 3or 4 times as much.

>>64747508
Damn thats cool. Was that all custom?

>>64747223
>giant
>expensive
>looks stupid unless SBR'd
>gimmick entirely reliant on full auto
and as for the military
>lol smgs post-2000
>>
>Bulky, weird action that doesn't even really do what it's meant to
>Said action makes gun heavy
>Size of an SMG with a barrel that's pistol length
Basically a meme, but it makes for a good novelty gat in an early-2010s game/movie that's set in the near future.

>>64747539
SMGs are based and I am tired of pretending they're not. For urban run n gun house to house close quarters combat? Nothing better than an SMG.
>>
>>64747514
Yeah. It was made by Hyman Lebman, a Ukrainian Jew who worked as a gunsmith during Prohibition making extremely expensive tacticool machine guns for the mob.

He's basically why we have the NFA today.
>>
>>64747564
Dang thats cool. Any other examples of cool shit he made?
>>
>>64747561
How about something that’ll actually penetrate walls and kill the guy on the other side? Doorkicking is suicide against non-Muslim opponents.
>>
>>64747223
SMGs all fell out in terms of general law enforcement to SBRs, so that eliminated the vast majority of demand.
>inb4 but muh token example of an agency using a vector

As a civilian, they are awkward to shoot because the entire platform is designed around full giggle, not semi. My brother has one and it's basically a novelty that's gotten used once in about a decade.

>>64747561
If they are wearing even light ballistic vests (which increasingly almost everyone has besides random goat fuckers and even they might) then you might be fucked.

>>64747366
Why didn't the LAMG catch on?
>>
>>64747223
Full auto is so heavily regulated here in the US that it simply had no customers. Without full auto, it's just a PCC that is heavier, bulkier, and with a shorter barrel than other PCC in the market.

>>64747561
>SMGs are based and I am tired of pretending they're not.
Real SMGs are, but the semi-auto PCCs we have to settle for are not.

>>64747587
>My brother has one
For his birthday, get him an FRT.
