It's the same degree of complexity as the ejection system in FN's own F2000, or even less. Just think what prevents the cases from falling back into the receiver if you fire F2000 straight up. Heck, the P90's mag is about as complex as the feed unit in PK which pulls rimmed ammo from ザイツェヴhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17164033061112816744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5153773.post-64554190710584824892007-03-11T15:22:00.000-04:002007-03-11T15:22:00.000-04:00FWIW, I've only seen it in one anime (Gunslinger G...FWIW, I've only seen it in one anime (<I>Gunslinger Girl</I>, where it makes sense for it to be Henrietta's weapon of choice: she's very small).

If you look at Kel-Tec RFB, then that's solving.<BR/><BR/>P90 is seen in the anime much too often, but that's because anime goes for looks. Actually, I think that the bad rap its magazine gets is unwarranted and completely misguided. It's a reliable system and not that complex.
