The 5.7 was originally developed for use in the P90 Bullpup and then the handgun for the same round.

Anything that round will do, the 5.56x45mm will do better out of my AR carbine. And substantially cheaper.

My point is that it's a "solution" to a nonexistent problem.

That's always a catchy answer.  They seem to sell a lot of them to folks without problems. You might as well say a 308 will do anything your 5.56 will do only better.
The OP was asking about the FN 5.7.
Do you have any 223, 5.56 hand guns (not like the Sig SBR?)

No, but there are certainly plenty of them around. I have no use for one... just as I have no use for an FN 5.7.
