M203 was the first UBGL and it didn't exist until the late 60s.

The Colt XM148 may suit your needs.

It came before the M203.


That could work. I'd have to give it a not-ugly-anymore job though.

Im sorry am I killing people at close range now?

Step one: Identify nature of threat
Step two: Appropriate correct use of force to engage threat
Step three: Identify proper execution of force to meet said threat (you are not going to attack a building with hostages in it the same as you might where its nothing but enemy forces)
Step four: Execution

If you want to clear a room, assuming there are all valid targets in said room, the way I would do it without use of flashbang (which, for the record, are insanely useful) would involve a a fragmentation grenade (assuming the walls were thick enough to not expose my team or myself to fragments, so this is out in the standard home, which is drywall/plaster and such) and carbines as well as some well placed shots.
Baring use of a Fragmentation grenade, very bright flashlights, surprise and very quick, rapid dominance effects and yelling. Lots of yelling.

Is 38.8mm too long for a pistol round that's supposed to go into the handle? And yes, I am assuming normal sized users without giant hands.
Purpelia does not reflect my actual world views. In fact, the vast majority of Purpelian cannon is meant to shock and thus deliberately insane. I just like playing with the idea of a country of madmen utterly convinced that everyone else are the barbarians. So play along or not but don't ever think it's for real.

I think I fixed it on the individual OICW pic, just not on the primary sheet.

That thing falls into the "giant hands" category. Plus it's a full 3.1mm longer than mine, which in turn is 4mm longer than the regular 7.62TT.
That's why I am asking...

Just a measly ~2mm longer than what your round is.

But can that one be comfortably used by roughly 90% of the human adult population?

I am asking since I want to know if I should develop a handgun for my new round or just keep the original 7.5x25 +P+ Model 1985 (one with a regular pistol bullet and not the insane mini rifle one) in my army as the pistol round and use this only for SMG's.
