WTF, over?

bubbas at Homeland Defense up to these days? Well, they bought a boatload of ammunition (driving up prices for all of us, dangit. It’s hard to compete with the government when they can just print the money they need). Well, it turns out once you buy all that ammo, you need something to shoot it out of. 7000 somethings. So, they’ve asked vendors to submit bids for “Personal Defense Weapons,” PDW for short. PDWs are simply the latest way of saying “carbine” but the marketers liked it because it sounds so modern, whereas, well, Custer’s troops had carbines. Eurocops have had these for some time, as they were developed for that purpose.
Here at the Castle, we have demo’d a PDW, the FN PS90, in it’s legal-for-civilians form with 16″ barrel.
