Why doesn't anyone offer a 357Sig AR pistol?

Reason I chose 357Sig is at the higher velocities it should shoot flatter than a 9mm and probably a 10mm too. While the bullets in 9mm and 357Sig may be similar the terminal ballistics of the Sig pull ahead simply because of the velocity.

Considering that 124gr. 9mm will shoot to POA at 100 yards out of a 4" pistol, how much flatter do you need?

Availability of ammo is certainly an issue. For me, the larger problem is reloading. The bottlenecked .357 Sig case has to be treated like a rifle cartridge, including trimming and lubing.
Just too much trouble if you're going to generate a lot of ammo; might as well be messing with 5.56.
Interesting hearing from the merchant mariner, and pirates off the coast of North Africa? Is there nothing new under the sun! Cue the Marine hymn.
