I am not sure what country, but It was made for drivers that needed a compact weapon that they would shoot from their vehicle if they got attacked.

Yeah, I think I remember reading on a thread here that Secret Service guys at la Casa Blanca carry these.

There's a lot of SF and Secret Service guys that use them, like nosmo said. And like pilz said, drivers and vehicle crews like the compact size.

Also, from what I've seen, SWAT is starting to use them. A guy I know up in Kansas had a hostage situation happen right next door and took pictures of SWAT officers with P90's.

Raith beat me to the punch with the Wiki site:
I have seen a picture of them in use with Eritrean forces as well.

Here's a thread from a board I frequent, trying to find parts for mine, with pictures of the P90 in use by various LE/mil units.

It\'s better to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

Real men use .308 weapons, or was it belt fed weapons, oh wait, or was it belt fed .308 weapons?

I'll take a belt-fed .308 if you're selling! :)  I know the PS-90 I own is a great little gun.  I can fire a 50 rd mag at a steel plate target while at a fast walk and have all the rounds hit.  It's a fast rd and the black tips will cut through steel plate no problem.....but then so will .223 and .308 AP rds.
