Why does the SGC use the P-90 and the 9mm Berreta. The P-90 has no mele capibility and the Beretta uses a 9mm which is weak. There are so many better weapons that SGC can use such as the M4 Carbine or the Colt .45 as a sidearm.

Now if I had to choose a weapon I would pick the FAMAS, it looks sweet and it has the punch and high fire rate, along with a .45.

The FN-P90 is an awsome weapon, and it holds the record for being one of the most accurate automatic weapons. Note the P90 is an SMG class weapon which is Ideal for an exploration team, and as you see Support teams carrie G-3K, M16, SPAS (Sporting Purpose Automatic Shotgun) and Rocket Launchers. We just see SG-1 more than most who uses the FN-P90 because there an Exploration Team, also being the one most likley get in trouble off world so the FN-P90 is used because its accurate, has large ammo capacity, compact easy to manouver with, and is highly customisible able to fit Laser Sight, Grenade Launchers, Stocks, flash lights, silencers and much more. Therfore making it an Ideal Compact weapon.

As for the 9mm I agree they could use somthing more efficient but most "Hand Guns" more powerfull or accurate then the 9mm are ussually bigger (Harder to Conceal) or hold less ammunation.Pure.

The P-90 and the M-4 are different tools for different jobs. Columbian special ops use them. (possibly in their recent and much noted raid into Ecuador) Also used by us Secret Service. The last time some dumb ass jumped the fence at the white house, he was surrounded by agents wielding the P-90.
It was a weapon designed to be used against lightly armoured enemies. Something most submachine guns aren't good at. Jaffa wear armor, so a weapon ideal for spec ops (submachine guns) also good at penetrating armor is an obvious choice.
Oh, and it does look cool.

Here are some good threads to check out
P-90's out of Date
Why don't P-90s use Silencers?
Pistols used in Atlantis
Sheppards Sidearm
But I think the P90 is great for the role it does for stargate
Also the reason that the M9 was used in season 1 of atlantis was that when the Expidtion was sent they wanted a standarized weapon and and with 9mm rounds they can carry more then the heavier .45 round also they didn't know of the wraith and how strong there were but after season 1 when they could get resupplied regualrly sheppard started using the M1911 clone which was more powerfulVote Anubis for President in 2012A Face you Can TrustsigpicSo whats the worst that could happen?Supporter of the "It's Asgard, NOT AsgUard !" campaignIt is better to debate a question without settling it than to settle a question without debating it.

Basically i will restate every reason i said on other threads. The P90 trigger to barrel distance is small, comparable to the size of a pistol. The small turn radius makes it safer when turning tight corners, while an M4 would have a large turn radius. It also makes it safer when in urban situations, it's field performance almost matches that of the M4 and surpases the MP5. It's versatile and unique aslo making it more captivating for an audience. Its a wise choice for the show plot and to capture the eye of viewersTheir white flags are no match to our guns!!

as for the P-90 id just repeat what other people have said \
as for the 9mil i know several soldiors and they all like the M9 for one reason, the amount of ammo it carries. most soldiors would prefer to unload 16 rounds into a enemy than just 7 or 8, so in the end calibre dosnt really matter
