Opinions on the new KelTec gun in 5.7mm FN? Looks kinda near and futuristic but probably will ham every 3 rounds? I think it takes P90 magazines from the pictures? Autistic opinions??!

Once again I'll give them props for trying something different. Every time though I see something like the CP33 I realize that I can get a 22 Charger and brace for less money and know for sure the 25 round mags will actually work...
I would give them props for trying something different if they hadn't designed it as a break-action gun. I can't think of ANY other magazine-fed gun that requires actually opening the action to get the mag in and out.
If you're switching between AR, AK, Scorpion, AUG, Tavor, etc there are slight differences in reloading process that you'll have to learn, but they're all roughly the same concept - push something, drop empty mag, insert new mag, close bolt, fire.
Like the P90, this requires that you learn and memorize and build muscle memory for a completely different process, but this requires actually opening the action and introduces additional potential modes of failure that you'll have to train for.
That's a lot of training and muscle memory to learn for a comically oversized pistol that can't readily accommodate a stock or brace.
