maybe for shits and giggles, or maybe for someone that has a 5.7 pistol and likes the idea of ammo interchangeability with their rifle. just because you dont see the belifits doesnt mean there isnt any, and honestly why does it matter even if there wasnt?
Shits and giggles, for sure. People can still bring up that it doesn’t really make sense for an ar15 when compared to 5.56. No one is saying you can’t drive a Prius, just why would you when there are other options? Again, if this does it for you by all means, enjoy. $10,000-$15,000 for a Barrett doesn’t “make sense” but I fully support people investing in that haha.
Possibly thinking about it the wrong way. Maybe some people want a somewhat more affordable way to shoot 5.7x28mm? I mean, PS90 costs ~$1400. CMMG costs $800 for the Banshee, and comes with 3, 40 round mags. Call me crazy, but I wish CMMG would do one in .30 Carbine.Because I just like the cartridge.
Why not just shoot 5.56? The ammo options are much greater unless you’re military or law enforcement you can’t even buy the best options for that platform. It was literally designed to beat body armor as it’s primary function. An extreme penetrator round from Lehigh defense in about any pistol caliber from .380-10mm and more at average ranges will do the same the 5.7 does, penetrates. If you ever needed to take on body armor or a bear you’d be better off with any standard pistol caliber, especially a larger diameter caliber that’s more suited for soft targets with a simple mag switch you go from every day carry to special situation.
@@mattandrews8528 I see your point but with that argument there's no reason to own literally any other gun except an AR-15 and a Glock 19. People buy uppers and other shit like this because it's fun. 5.7x28mm is essentially worthless as a caliber without AP rounds but people still want it and buy guns chambered for it because it's fun to shoot. I want a Five-seveN but I'd never carry it, you dig?
You can check out CMMG's site they have them on there or you can order the RDB and barrel and build your own. Still looking at around $500. CMMG makes great shit yet they are very proud of it. I have one of their RDB 9mm uppers and it was expensive yet works flawless with the Endomags.
@@LibertarianTroll4774 Diane Finklestein, Mikey Doomberg, and MasturBeto O'Dork set up multiple accounts so they could dislike it as many times as possible! 🤣
I remember a few years ago a company made a upper called AR57 that uses p90 magazines and the mag well on the lower became the ejection port, I wonder why you don't see them anymore....
I could see this as a concept to have a light pdw setup that has all of the familiar controls of an ar that allows for more modularity than a p90. I like the concept, as 5-7 is not really meant to penetrate armor out of the pistol as much as it is meant to penetrate armor out of a carbine. And if the upper is a good price, that will only increase the popularity of the cmmg over the civilian leagal ps90
I see you Eric with them hater blockers! Lmao wearin em better than Tom Cruise. Keep enjoying shot show with some of that legal weed (thaaaaats why the glasses huh?) and cocktails left n right. Will watch every update y’all post, keep em comin!
This may sound a little... well, my question is this: Can I drop a CCMG upper group, (Resolute 300, Mk4, .350 Legend), on my Colt lower? Guess if anyone would know, it would be y'all and your subscribers!
Depending on the Colt lower. They're were some for some years that had some different takedown and pivot pin sizes. Theses aren't very common. Our 350 Legend upper should fit any "mil-spec" lower.
I freakin LOVE CMMG. They come up with the coolest most innovative things. I don’t like proprietary mags or anything tho. That’s kind of a deal breaker.
CMMG really? Y’all are gonna pull that card? He’s holding an ar platform. When you have a “mil spec” in a given caliber in an AR it’s mag should fit the mag well of any other “mil spec” lower-upper combo in the same caliber. We aren’t talking about Glox here.
5.7x28mm is a (kind of) pistol caliber round developed by FN for the Five-seven pistol and P90 SMG, at the request of NATO for an SMG/Pistol combo to replace 9mm. It has almost no similarity to 5.56x45mm.
Rob Sorgdrager... I have a FN Five Seven pistol, and am currently waiting for my Ruger 57 to arrive at LGS... 5.7 is not "better" if your trying to compare it apple2oranges comparison against 5.56/.223. If you look at it from the perspective use of a handgun or PDW, against say 9mm or similar calibers it has some advantage's many people dont think of. Lack of recoil, flat shooting, longer distance accuracy, weight of ammunition and less chance of over penetration are many justifiable reasons someone would take a 5.7 AR-15 weapon instead of the usual offerings
Shoot I still want the 5.7 upper that uses P90 mags! Nice work staying innovative CMMG. I still need to get a .22 conversion for my AR's. Just in case ya'know. Much OBLIGED for the video >:0
What up Eric? U always do good job breaking it down, and answering my questions before I ask them 👍👍👍. I’m getting this system for my PWS SBR. Throw a mad mount on 57 upper and run my Saker 556 on that puppy. It’s going to look and run too sexy with my Maxim Defense PDW Stock on it. 37 cents a pop for ammo will make me cut back on consuming else where though. My girlfriend won’t mind more Burger 🍔 dinner dates, right?
Again, I don't get the want for a PCC... Why when you have 5.56 which is perfectly fine and cheaper than most options? The only PCC I would want is .45 ACP so I could suppress it. Other than that, no thanks. Just an opinion though.
I have to say I like watching you channel so much. Like the upper 5.7x28. You get into detail on if you will need anything else to go with the upper to make it run on my AR-15 Lower. I watched another RUclips channel guy he just went through an looked at all the things he was into. Most the things he looked at was all high $$$$$ stuff I'm not much of a fan of his channel it is DMO / RACH. You should know by the way I put it. Everyone understand I have a right to like What ever channel I want to. Keep up the awesome work on your channel.

He doesn't want anyone to see how blood shot his eyes are after flying in from Virginia.

I smell a meltdown coming lol.
Beat me to the punch
MELTDOWN ! MELTDOWN ! MELTDOWN !
In 5.7x28? That is one expensive meltdown, lol.
@@flyingphoenix113 better preheat it in the oven... you could spend a couple grand quick.
They won’t, 5.7 is too expensive. It’s the same reason they only melt down cheap guns or nicer guns the shoot cheap ammo.
That cmmg 5.7 ar15 is awesome. It's a must buy for 2020
5.7 makes sense in a pistol or pdw. But why would I want an AR that shoots a much less powerful yet much more expensive round than 5.56?
Exactly. Anyone want an AR that shoots a slower, more expensive and lightweight 5.56 round?
maybe for shits and giggles, or maybe for someone that has a 5.7 pistol and likes the idea of ammo interchangeability with their rifle. just because you dont see the belifits doesnt mean there isnt any, and honestly why does it matter even if there wasnt?

Tyler I was referring to Eric’s persona
I had an issue with my Mk 47 Banshee 300. CMMG was on top of their game to get it to 100% reliability. They stand behind their products. Big fan.
5.7mm and 10mm seem like they would make very good PCCs. Good PDW style setup for home defense.
5.7 looks like a really good round for the AR15 system when ammo prices come down.
Why not just shoot 5.56? The ammo options are much greater unless you’re military or law enforcement you can’t even buy the best options for that platform. It was literally designed to beat body armor as it’s primary function.

CMMG is a great company with great people making great guns. Beautiful designs, high quality, reliable, and accurate. I own three and love them.
That's cool! 😀 I love CMMG! 🤤
1968 called it wants their Vietnam era spook back.
bought damn time been waiting for this conversion since like 2007
Itll be nice to have a 5.7 upper for any ar15 lower, just curious about the price tag though. Any ideas as to the price tag?
Its gonna be high
CMMG has the upper+3 of these mags listed for 800
You can check out CMMG's site they have them on there or you can order the RDB and barrel and build your own. Still looking at around $500. CMMG makes great shit yet they are very proud of it. I have one of their RDB 9mm uppers and it was expensive yet works flawless with the Endomags.
There has been a 5.7 upper out for years that runs on any ar lower but it’s top loading and uses p90 mags. Spent brass drops through the mag well
@@Twouptwodowngrower The AR57 upper is no longer available new. I regret not buying the model with the slimmed down handguard and lightened barrel.

Can’t wait for the video of this thing in action! Thanks, Gents! ✌🏻🇺🇸
CMMG is a great company, i absolutely love my ar i built from CMMG parts
:O!!! awesome..... definately will have to look forward to the 5.7 upper...
Bruh......LOL When you popped up on my screen all I could say was, "Freeze gopher!!!'
Looking sharp Eric. Thank you guys for all the coverage!
Nice shades. Lookin prepared for shot show 👌
I've been considering getting the 5.7 banshee but this is tempting.
Thank you for all the hard work love your videos
I remember a few years ago a company made a upper called AR57 that uses p90 magazines and the mag well on the lower became the ejection port, I wonder why you don't see them anymore....
I don't see any reason to have a 5.7 upper. 5.7 is just a slower .223 and both are exactly the same, an ar15 that shoots a 22 caliber bullet.
Where is your 1911, Walter Sobchak from The Big Lebowski?
Good thing it's not the sabbath
MARK IT ZERO!!!!!!
The UZI...you didn't think I was rollin outta here naked, did you?
5.7 getting new bump in the but from cmg and ruger.
That may go well with my new Ruger. Sweet. Thanks for showing.
Other 5.7 upper uses $25 50rd mags and has convenient downward ejection.
This is sorta what I've been hoping for... A rifle that could kinda replicate that kac pdw that never really went anywhere. That was such a cool rifle
.22WMR upper and mags when CMMG. WHEN.
Those glasses come with their own unibrow
I could see this as a concept to have a light pdw setup that has all of the familiar controls of an ar that allows for more modularity than a p90.

I think we might get some steel cased 5.7 this year
How far along, are they on a 22magnum upper and magazines
...sweet platform...so SAD I’ll never see it here in Australia...Cheers🍺

Should be able to. They fit any AR lower as far as I know...
Depending on the Colt lower. They're were some for some years that had some different takedown and pivot pin sizes. Theses aren't very common. Our 350 Legend upper should fit any "mil-spec" lower.
Wonder if the coating on the 5.7 brass has to be retained for this upper to work.
What is special about the 5.7?
How much is the upper
I get the 5.7x28 in a handgun or something like the p90, but why not just run 5.56 if you’re already doing an ar15?
What vest are you wearing Eric?
Please go check out Sig, and the new .277 Fury. Also the New MDR upgrades at the Desert tech booth.
But isn't there already an AR-15 upper that takes p90 magazines?
16 inch 357 magnum upper would be sweet!!!
I'm surprised that hasn't been done yet...
That mag convo saves $$$$
Does it use a standard ar 15 bcg?
That would be awesome in full auto!!
Like a little sewing machine! 😊
I freakin LOVE CMMG. They come up with the coolest most innovative things. I don’t like proprietary mags or anything tho. That’s kind of a deal breaker.
It won't stay that way, they're just the first to come out with it, others will follow.
If you think about it, all mags are proprietary. You can't use a Springfield mag in a Glock. lol. Just messing with you there.
CMMG really? Y’all are gonna pull that card? He’s holding an ar platform. When you have a “mil spec” in a given caliber in an AR it’s mag should fit the mag well of any other “mil spec” lower-upper combo in the same caliber. We aren’t talking about Glox here.
That’s more of an industry standardization gripe tho. I know it’s probably not an internal conscious decision CMMG made.
whats the 5.7 ? is it similar to the 5.56? (uk here, we cant own these)

Novelty, no benefit.
magazine needs to be a 60 rounder to up 1 the ps90 this 40 rounder doesnt make 5.7 tht cool needs to be super high cap
So im trading a 55grn bullet moving 3k fps for a 40gen moving 2k fps that cost more? I fail to see what the up side is?
FYI The CMMG 9mm Mag is the Endomag.
Please go to the Arsenal booth
What's the MSRP
I assume it requires a different bolt than standard 556, right?
Yes, all which you can buy SEPARATELY from the conversion kit
🎼I wear sunglasses at night...or SHOT. Cause he can y’all!
Does anyone know if a cmmg 9mm banshee upper will fit with a spikes dedicated 9mm lower??
Tfw no p90 version upper
I didn’t realise Mr Plinkett was reviewing guns for IV8888 🤔
You're inside take your glasses off xD
so does that mean CMMG 5.7 upper MELTDOWN videos, PLEASE!!!!!
I really thought 5.7 was on its way out. Strange seeing new guns come out for it when its knocking on deaths door.
I’ll just wait for Ruger’s carbine in 5.7.
Heads up to anyone looking to use the 9mm conversion mag, it doesn’t work in anything besides CMMG radially delayed uppers.
Good to know cuz it looks exactly like an Endo mag so I was wondering what the difference is.
It lacks the ejector of the mean arms standard conversion.
Shoot I still want the 5.7 upper that uses P90 mags! Nice work staying innovative CMMG. I still need to get a .22 conversion for my AR's. Just in case ya'know. Much OBLIGED for the video >:0
