Slightly better, but I'm still not a fan. MP7 is probably my favorite PDW.


I like the VBR PDW slightly better than the MP-7. It fires better rounds and works better as a pistol replacement.

I'm going off aesthetics, not performance. VBR PDW kinda looks like a chunk of metal.

Remember, I like the aesthetics of the Owen SMG. Chunks of metal look very good to me! :p

The one you referenced, obviously... The Owen is one of my least favorite weapons of all time. Especially because 90% of the time, top-loaders are ugly as hell.

A truly ugly rifle is the Armalite series.

Looking future-y is not a good thing in every case. And aesthetics are subjective, so I don't know why everyone (myself included) insists on using them as an objective measure...

A gun I like to look at:

Ah, so you weren't referring to the Australian version of the Charlton Automatic Rifle, the KAL-1, the T2 Mk5 or the C60R.

Personally, I love the Owen. From it's top mounted magazine, to the ugly components to the lulzy reliability, it all looks good to me.

Frankly I adore the KAL1, but the C60R is just hideous.

1986-1990 as a matter of fact.
