PDW’s are designed to give rear-line/auxilliary combat troops and specialized units a select-fire weapon that can still lay down an impressive amount of suppressive fire, while being significantly lighter, more portable, and more concealable than an infantry rifle/carbine.

How much lighter and more portabe and more concealable do you NEED than the M4? Ar the REMF's becoming so weak that they cant carry around a weapon that weighs 8 lbs with a loaded 30 rnd mag? From poodle shooter to rat killer, as long as the rat isn't too big or tough. As you said, no thanks. I'll stick with my L1A1 and Garands because only hits count.

Look at the amount of powder behind that bullet. Methinks those little buggers will disrespect kevlar. And, as they say, some varmints got kevlar hides.
