AR and derivatives are undeniably the best platform in almost every category. Ambi/left support is kinda a cludge, and STANAG is an okay magazine. That’s about the limits of the platform’s problems nowadays, the rest have been fixed
All the big advancements in the small arms arena are in electro-optics. Firearms have plateaued long enough that quibbling over a better gun isn’t the best place to throw R&D (or for that matter, procurement) money at. Buy all your troops RDS/LPVO for everyone, then Vis/IR laser.
I genuinely can’t tell if you’re having a stroke and can’t form a sentence, or are making some smartass comment about .300 BLK/9x39/etc
There’s a lot of physics that make ‘pistol bullet what goes heckin fast’ incredibly hard, if not pointless. Metallurgy, internal & external ballistics, case web separation, a valid reason why…

Well, they could try for a pistol sized cartidges firing out of pistol sized barrels with rifle sized ballistics. Super high chamber pressures though.
