PDWs...and other small arms.

[stanc]

Germany adopted the H&K MP7, although they seem to use it in the SMG role, rather than as a PDW. (Note that service pistols are worn, in addition to carrying the MP7.)







I have personally done limited testing of a compact 9mm SMG (SWD M11/Nine), to try to determine the validity of the PDW concept for myself.


Firing 3-rd bursts @ 25 meters, hit probability was significantly better versus a 9mm service pistol (M9 Beretta), when trying to engage the target as quickly as possible.

Is the foregoing what you wanted in asking for my "view of PDW's from a historical perspective"? If not, please clarify.
