I'll take five each of the first and last.
Thank you in advance.
ETA: Quarter Circle10 in the mix, eh? Interesting.

These all miss the mark if you ask me. The P90 is more useful than any of these.

Except the mag changes under pressure make it
As long as it's in 357 Sig I'm game. Seriously some cheap military ammo with that round would be awesome.
50 round magazine bruh. Also mag changes seem simple, mag is on top for easy access in any position. Looks like you just slide it forward and pop it down. The P90 is usable out to 200 meters as opposed to the 100 meters of these 9mm types.Except the mag changes under pressure make it
I see the P90 as the true successor to the M1 carbine, usable in all the same roles for all the same reasons. Its the weapon I wish was issued to me as a vehicle born troop. Also a positive feature of the P90 is that the magazine does not protrude from the gun. Frankly I can't think of a better gun for use in and around vehicles or tightly confined spaces.

Well thats really cool and all, but I hope they are devoting at least as much attention to something with a little more importance and priority, say, like a main battle rifle and caliber.

the odds of any of those being deployed to regular troops are about equal to the deployment of these:
Supposedly the Army is in the middle of a project for that.

Yeah, like for the last thirty years.

Well all the other projects kept coming to the same conclusion: There hasn't been anything that is a big enough improvement over the M16/M4 to warrant the expense and effort of switching over. The current project is more about replacing the ammunition with something significantly different, a new arm would be just a corollary of that.
I love the MP5, and would love to own one, but sadly I even realize in today's world it would not be the best option for a sub gun, probably not even top 5

Couple of decades ago I was on a bullshit security detail, only novel thing was I was given a MP5k to carry.

Good get rid of the m4/16 then I would not have to listen to these whinny bastards saying civilians shouldn’t have the same arms as the military.

Angstadt.
Second I saw QC10 on the original list I wondered why they weren't on the list already.
Had Glock won the new pistol contest the 9mm PDW from either might've had a leg up (mag compatabilty). I don't see either winning.
