I've been reading up on the .22 TCM cartridge, as an alternative to the FN 5.7, and guns chambered for this round.
As of now, I think only Armscor (Rock Island, etc.) has anything chambered in .22 TCM, and they introduced a bolt action rifle recently.
I'd like to see a light weight compact carbine, 20+1 double stack fed through the pistol grip like a Hi Point or Kel Tec Sub-2000. Optics ready, adjustable stock, BUIS, all in a package of just over 26" OAL to keep it Title I. Maybe even have the ability for a quick change 9mm barrel, seeing as how they do have a 9mm/ .22 TCM 1911 style pistol.
This light, fast round would be an ideal PDW round, again, similar in scope to the 5.7, but the 5.7 has struggled to catch on and become mainstream, possibly because of the limited number of firearms which are chambered for it. The .22 TCM seems to have a niche following, but could become more mainstream by introducing more firearms that use it.
Is the .22 TCM proprietary to Armscor?
