MP5 anons,
Has anyone tried the Kiro MP5 mags? They can be found for $30-$45 depending on where you look. They claim the mags are made to exact HK specs, but it's also from a tiny-hat company.
>>
>>64943732
looks like $35 on GB
which is where I assume you took the screenshot from lol. I'd buy a couple and give them a shot (pun intended) for that price

I've had good luck with mora magazines too
way cheaper than most alternatives. there was a dude on GB selling them for like 26 bucks
>>

>>
>>64943881

>>
>>64943766
>Not buying at least a cheap MP5 clone while the gettings good
Are you a zoomer or something? If the import market gets cut off those are going to double in price in a year and you'll never be able to larp as SG1 or a pre 2000s special forces cool guy. Plus the ammos cheap and you can get them really quiet with a can
>>
>>64943894
The best thing you can do is buy more guns, not dogshit guns mind you, but guns that are worth buying.

You can always buy other shit later for your existing guns. The best time to buy more guns is NOW when they are cheap, what happens when the dems get control of the federal Govt? What if they stop approving import permits for all that turkshit everyone loves?

What if SP5/k cant be imported from Germany anymore? Within a year it would be a $5000+ gun and the $1000 clones would likely all double in value.

Even 1895 Nagant revolvers which were once $99 guns some 13 years ago, now sell for around $500 on Gunbroker. $99 Mosins have a price floor around $400 now.

Invest in guns that are cheap enough to buy now, but are no longer available. Military surplus in good condition is a perfect example. CMP 1911s are another good example. Its a 7 month wait to get one, but they are immediately worth $2k+ on the open market, so as soon as you get it, you're in the green by a deep margin.

I have 7 mags total; 20 round straight, thirty curved and one of the new opaque mags they use now. They have a problem with gold dot, and wont cycle gd 147 at all. Not an issue for me cause it runs ball and tui just fine. Never used the GO mags. My friend has the sp10 and it hiccups on cheap jhp a little. He has eight factory magazines and they run fine. Use critical duty if you're concerned about hp reliability.

Is there any actual footage of subguns in modern combat aside from photo ops and training exercises? Valgear’s recent anecdote of a squad mate choosing an 11.5 AR over a Skorpion EVO further reinforces my belief that pistol calibers are generally not well suited for the demands of modern combat outside of last ditch defense.

Not surprising, especially when you consider the XM-177 was initially designated as a submachine gun, same with the Korean K1. If you think about it a little, short ARs are just the next evolution of the SMG and therefore supplant the traditional pistol caliber automatic rifle for most roles

t. Not OP
>>
>>64951072
No, you don't need to know the history of every image. However, that one is almost as historic as the Kyle Rittenhouse video.
Eliean Gonzalez was this poor Cuban kid that managed to make it to Florida on barely functional raft (the very definition of a blockhopper). There was family waiting for him in Florida.
However, after he succesfully made it to the states, his father, a piece of shit Cuban national in Cuba, raised a stink about his son running off to a foreign nation and sued for his son's return.
He won.
That little boy screaming in the pic was Elian Gonzalez. The man holding him was either an uncle or a cousin; still related by blood.
The swat team is probably government level, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was just a municipality swat team thinking it was only a warrant. The lack of identifiable markings and the use of the MP5 are noticeable.

NTA but you're a fucking clown. Miami is filled with Cuban diaspora that fled under Castro. They hate him so much that Florida had to pass an anti militia law due to so many expats training in the everglades to go back and off Castro. They are hard right. Clinton sent in the feds to kidnap that kid as an overt fuck you to those people. I would gladly trade 100 of you for one of them, squatter.

How you gonna lecture other people on not knowing the history and say dopey shit like this? By the time of the raid, the whole fucking country knew who Elian was and the Fed in the picture was there because his uncle refused to hand the kid over.

Communists are subhuman. They have no human rights.

Nah it's all good. I just think that a modern PCC is best utilized when used in conjunction with a sidearm that utilizes the same mags. It's basically the modern extension of the Old West "lever carbine and six-gun sharing the same ammo" loadout. It also eliminates a potential fumble in trying to jam non-compatible mags into your empty gun. At least, it would for me.

Unsure. Both of my MKE guns predate this.

this seems about perfect in 7x25mm

I'd add a folding front grip that could also hold a spare clip

Aren't Turk/Paki MP5s like $900? They are or were surprisingly cheap as of like 2 months ago and can be FRT'd except >>64971442 which doesn't do anything except require more work. Also might need the AR trigger lower. Dunno. Yes more than $800 but barely. Biggest downside is lack of pic rail short of a welded model or putting a claw mount on.

I'm curious if the U.S. made parts kits have gotten better in terms of quality, I know they initially had some issues.
I bought one of the Omega UMP receivers when they first came out and back then they didn't have complete builds or the GSG9 kits yet so I put mine together using USC and UMP parts.
It's honestly been a great gun, but I did have an initial issue with the receiver where the pin that the lower hinges on started walking out on me.

Looks like B&T USA is imploding on themselves because they haven't been paying B&T AG in Switzerland for imported products and now B&T AG is terminating their licensing agreement and they're throwing lawsuits at each other left and right.
Starting to make sense why B&T USA hasn't been able to keep shit in stock lately.
So if you want a B&T PCC or suppressor you may want to get it now if it's in stock, since I have a feeling their stuff will be hard to get for a while.

If you really want one, yeah you probably should.
The whole thing is kind of a giant mess since from the sounds of it B&T AG still wants to sell to the U.S. Market, but B&T USA went rogue and started doing shit like manufacturing their 3D printed Inconel suppressors for other companies like PSA's Sabre line.
Apparently one of the main people involved with B&T USA was also involved with the Larry Vickers case where they illegally imported Machine Guns by abusing the law letter system and the sketchy HD-18 SVD imports.

Switzerland also just announced a halt to arms exports to the US so yeah, you may want to get something if you've been on the fence about it.

Will do. Got the USC lower and mags today and the parts kit should be here on Saturday.
>>64991076
Anecdotally it seems 45 kits are pretty squared away while 9mm kits seem give the most trouble. My guess is because the USC was around making it much easier to clone the parts compared to the harder to find (in the US) legit HK UMP 9mm parts. My receiver serial number is in the 200s so finding any durability information on them is challenging. People seem to care more about the G36 receivers S5 Tactical makes.

Thankfully, I got most of the HK accessories B&T makes already. Just ordered the B&T flash hider for the UMP though just incase.

Bottom line is I want an mp5.
Problem is, I only buy the best of the best, so I’m relegated to the HK brand HK Sp5.
The delima, is that this is the first time I’ve ever been concerned over “shooting a gun out”.
If I’m paying THAT much for a pcc, and 9mm being as plentiful and affordable as it is, I could easily put 2-3k rounds through it a year and now with the possibility of an frt, this increases the wear ever more (due to volume of fire). So after 10 years, is it pretty much a wrap for that gun?
Could an sp5 be reasonably upkept beyond 30k rounds and am I downplaying the durability/longevity of these guns?
>>
>>65009119
NASA has an MP5 that had over 500,000 documented rounds through it. They did have to change springs and rollers and other small components, but it kept chugging. I wouldn't sweat magdumping through an SP5.

Alright, finally finished with turning the cheap as shit Ruger 57 into something more fun and I'm not paying double to have a Ruger 57 carbine.

Got my Ruger 57 chassis set to go. Doesn't require taking the Ruger 57 apart and use the top optic holes to attach the charging handle. Three printed parts if not using front mag holder and one for front mag holder. Slide catch - slide release works. Four rails at front, one along top back, and one on back of chassis. Configurable as braced pistol or SBR it if did your free paperwork. Plenty of options.

Thanks. The Ruger 57 I had was just collecting dust. I wanted a 5.7 carbine but wasn't going to dish out for another gun when I had a Ruger 57 just collecting dust.

I'm surprised out how well it turned out and how much fun it was to shoot at range. It was like shooting a 22 lr rifle with a stock and front mag holder. Very little recoil, very little muzzle climb. Dumped like 100 rounds rapid fire and ran around doing drills with it for another 200. Front mag holder is friction based and didn't fall out and light enough a tug dislodges it easily.

Weight is 3.2 pounds with all the accessories and two loaded mags attached to it. Half as much as an empty LC Carbine.

I'll probably drop build video and range video of it later on YouTube. Waiting for a $25 polymer airsoft folding stock to get here to see if it's better than the 3d printed folding stock. It's on odysee under @luvs2spwge at moment. Calling it the lilz mp57

Might hack off the end of my Beretta cx4 storm carbine and make a rail adapter for rear stock.
>>
>>64943797
Have one. Is excellent. I can recommend krobros review on YT if you want a non-shill take of how the gun actually is to shoot IRL. The only downside is it's heavier (and more front heavy) than the Vector or Dissent which are its two main competitors. Eats my ++P 300gr loads (which batter my 1911s) with no issue.

NTA but holy shit. I remember reading his post about AKs; it was a big factor in my purchase of a WASR. Only thing that killed them is like any other stamped gun where they'd crack just as fast as they got welded back together at a certain point. Back on the MP5 side, him of all people saying that for the most part both POF and MKE work fine with no real complaints except for one batch of rollers is a nice data point, too.

Hope these count. Openbolt euro spec semi autos. Papasha sucks at everything except the actual shooting, Sudayev is very nice to live with, but the folding stock is retarded and it's neither as pleasant nor as accurate to shoot as the PPSh.

7,62 Tok is a pretty good PCC cartridge - that zippy bullet with little drop lets you push the effective range noticeably further out than a 9 Luger.

Making progress on a jig for cutting the rear stock off evenly. Then making a drilling jig to put machine nuts into the cut off section to jb weld in and then the adapter will be easy as shit.

Consider heat set inserts over JB Weld. Mentions of experimenting with bead blasting the exterior of the insert and higher temps/longer heat exposure for better bonding of the plastic in the comments as well. Though I guess it's hollow so fuck.

I think in any active combat situation you’d want a rifle caliber. I do see one very valid use of a PCC and that’s home defense. I love my KP9, it’s short for hallways and around corners. Have a light mounted and a red dot and won’t go completely deaf from firing a rifle round. Besides I worry about over penetration and with a 9mm hollow point it’s less. When I get a suppressor it will be that much better. Outside of that I don’t see it beyond a range toy.

Nta, but probably because HK only steps up to the plate after a competitor does, and charges x2 or x3 more.

The MP7 has existed for 25 years. Only now does HK bring it to the US market.
Same with the MP5s. The SP5 on sale now was introduced in 2019. They also cucked it a little with the trigger pack pin.

it's far more likely that MKE will somehow drum up a clone of it that's <$3,000 while remaining 1:1 to it. overall it's just not worth it for a meme gun popularized by HL2. it will only be bought by anons or other autists, that also own a USP Match to complement it, and never have more than 500 rounds through it

People LOVE complaining about HK as if the company personally insulted their mother. Idgi.

I checked Ammo Seek this weekend and 4.6 was about 70 cpr or less shipped. That's lower than I was expecting. It's about the same price or less than 5.56 77gr OTM, and nobody gets bent out of shape over that stuff, so go figure.

As we saw with the Tommy Built T7, the gun isn't easy to clone. His T7 was an abject failure that drove him out of business. The T7 also cost a ton. If cheap clones were so easy for brownoids to pump out, then why haven't they ever done so? I wouldn't be surprised if PSA or Kel-Tec introduce a 4.6 gun after the SP7 drops, but an MP7 clone they will not be.

The fact that HK is actually working to deliver this is an absolute solid for the fans. This gun isn't exactly practical for anything. It's not going to win anyone over anyone for any use case beyond HK fans who just think it's neat.

If someone doesn't want one, then they don't have to buy one, but seething about HK bringing one to market just reeks of poverty cope desu.

What sort of mental illness is this? MKE aren't some HK cloning geniuses or something, they can only do the roller guns because HK built all the tooling for them and taught them how to build them back in the 70s or whatever. They're about as likely to make an mp7 clone as Taurus or tanfoglio are

Add on they are licensed to manufacture the roller delayed. They got their data packets and everything from HK. These are also limited to the designs purchased at the time, none of any of the HK tweaks and improvements since then. Quick checks shows nobody else licensed to manufacture the MP7

I'm always conflicted on whether or not I should bother with a suppressor for my P90. I definitely don't miss having a giant heavy thing sticking out the from after having it un-SBR'ed from 2018 to 2023 and it seems like your choices are a shitty Keymo brake, a shitty CMMG adapter known for not being properly aligned, a GSL device meant for their old ass P90 suppressor with a whopping total of 3 baffles and a B&T thing that you can no longer get given the situation with B&T USA. Seems like you have to get some big and heavy high volume 5.56 can or you'll issues and I'm sure it won't play very well with the new FRT. I dunno, I like my Rugged Obsidian 9 on my MP5s but I think I'll be leaving the P90 just with the normal flash hider

I'm glad HK is finally bringing a civilian MP7 stateside, but I'm not willing to spend an absurd amount of money on a PCC that fires a proprietary cartridge you can only get for more than 66 CPR online. If it's around $1k I'd pick one up, but at SP5 prices (which H&K will probably do)? No. I'd grab a PS90, a lot of 50-round mags for it, and three cases of 5.7mm for that much.

No idea but a metal body, Israeli made MP5 mag? Probably fine. They have a lifetime warranty against defects, FWIW

Battlefield Vegas has a lot of info on MP5 reliability and with the exception of first gen KCI mags they reported that mags all performed the same only that HK ones would last longer. Keep in mind these guys were renting MP5s days in and out for people to rip 30 rounds full auto all day long. They would rebuild MP5s every two months or so due to trunnions getting beat out of place. Keep in mind that takes at least 300,000 rounds to do that.

Sadly Cuban expats tend to be 100x better than the blue-hairs born here. I'd be down for trades if we could do such a thing, I'm sure they'd be okay with it too.

Also, FWIW, we had "Wet Foot, Dry Foot" policy at the time, meaning if you got here from Cuba you were allowed to apply for residency.

I bought it because someone specifically used it on the cx4 on youtube and it is the same price as the lowest end romeo.

NTA but I enjoy it a lot with friends, the partner AI when playing by yourself is totally garbage and they still get stuck on doors and will stand there saying they’re going to do something, and not doing it. While they’re getting magdumped in the face. Very frustrating, but the levels, guns, and general gameplay are good, there’s some odd choices in the weapon selection though.
>>
>>65032957
Just looking at the mag, you either loose out on a ton of capacity for the sake of compactness(think single stackish) or magazines become even weirder to manipulate and fit more 9mm. Not to mention the overhaul the gun itself would have to go through to accommodate 9mm.
We're glazing over a lot stuff here to simplify this concept. It's a lot bigger than just tapered bullets.

I want a UMP. Is there anything wrong with getting one of the 100% US made clones from S5 or the like? They can be had for a little over $2k, shipped now.

Meanwhile """German made""" tranny UMP conversions cost a little under $5k, require me to source multiple parts (including a complete USC), get an FFL to ship everything to an in-network doctor who specializes in sub-gun transitions, only to then have to wait weeks/months for the UMP-confirmation surgery (which hopefully is a success/doesn't have complications that requite revision surgeries). All this just to get it to say """real""" HK stuff on it.

It seems like HK boomers are willing to pay 2.5x to go down crazy rabbit holes to source shit and jump through more hoops just so they can transition into a """real""" UMP. Meanwhile the US made clones seem like they know what they are and are very straightforward and approachable.

Am I missing something here? If the performance is the same from each, then it seems like a US clone is the right choice for me. The HK boomerhons can go full-retard post-op. I just want to look cute and be functional.

I got my AP5P and a bunch of mags at the right time. Great gun super fun to shoot. I missed the cheap mosins, K31s and what still hurts me to this day was the cheap vepr 12s :((((( On a local gun classified I missed out on a 1k spas 12 cause I was a brokey at the time.
>>
>>65034796
I'm still going to buy one despite the increase in price. I looked into all the short 9mm PCC options and the MP5K is still the the best option out there, as far as I can tell. The manual of arms is outdated, but other options have issues that the MP5K doesn't have, while being *at least* as expensive as the Turk gun.

Kind of a shame I can't just buy an AP5-P upper, since I'm going to get a complete ASD lower for it anyway. That's not cheap either :(
>>
>>65034826
Wait for them to go on sale at Atlantic. You can get one for about $1k or a little more and they go on sale like every 6 weeks, just sign up for Atlantic's emails if you haven't already. Also wait for AS Designs to release the ARHK of you don't want to pay for the full lower replacement. The ARHK wll be their drop in FRT for HK roller guns. They don't give forward-facing release dates, but it sounds like they're close to completing testing. I suspect it'll drop in the next 2 months.

Most MP5s on the market are pretty solid.
HK, Century MKE, MAC, Zenith.

I went with a new MKE AP5N myself. Zero issues out of the box and even after 900 rounds. Half the price of the HK SP5. Suppressor lockup is tight and FRT fits perfect. Stock fitment is nice and tight.

If you want a fixed stock, get a HK stock, alternatively AC unity makes a cheap option (aesthetic is slightly off, but untrained eyes won't notice).
If you want a collapsible stock, go with new production MKE (Atlantic firearms had a bunch). Half the price of HK, and exactly the same.

Lot's of FRT options if you want "almost full auto". L2 prints is awesome for aesthetics but it's 3D printed, AS designs if you want metal and piece of mind. Most full-size MP5s will work without modifying the locking piece. The short MP5ks will be a challenge, especially if you run a suppressor.

Suppressor options are pretty open. Get one that has a 3-lug (sometimes called tri lug) attachment option. You'll usually have to buy this as an extra suppressor accessory. Focus on reduced back pressure suppressors. Go to PewScience and sort the 9mm rankings accordingly. Top 10 suppressors are all good. I personally have a Mojave 9, but I also use it on pistols.

The parts are worse quality. The S5 kit bolt isn't tungsten filled, so the already bad recoil is even worse. The rear isn't welded and you run into more fitment issues.

>Meanwhile """German made""" tranny

It's more like $2.0-2.5K for a USC conversion if you wait for a sale/Black Friday.

USC conversions have less reliability issues than the US clones. Only the Tommybuilt stuff had issues IIRC.

>The manual of arms is outdated
Instructors at shooting class shitting on MP5 for having "outdated" manual of arms and slower split times than spherical ARs in vacuum only to then teach you convoluted procedures that negate a lot of that speed because "things don't always go smooth" made me realise that the MP5 manual of arms is very repeatable, simple and unified:

Every time the gun does not go bang for whatever reason you pull the charging handle, hook it up and check the ejection port. At that moment you either see clearly what to do next (and have a hand free to do that), or have already solved the problem, and it's very difficult to fuck up.
>>
>>65035360
If you were really trying to fix issues with minimal time, it could be even done quicker than that.

I had a number of failures when I was trying to get my FRT to work properly in my MP5.
Anytime the gun stops working, you just pull the charging handle, lock it back, and immediately drop the magazine. You don't really have to look in the chamber as loose rounds from a FTE or FTF will simply drop out the bottom. You can also see the top round in the magazine. But having the mag out for a split second is enough.
If it wasn't a failure and you just happened to be out of ammo, you're already halfway there on changing the mag.

.45 auto kits are retard priced. The .40s&w kits are much cheaper and if you did want .45acp you can buy a bolt and barrel as well and still be under HKscums price. The harder part is sourcing USC semi auto FCG parts but you can buy them individually if you shop around.

Copy that. Yeah, I discovered that today too. I would prefer the .45 cal since it's the OG caliber the gun was designed for, but I'm not entorely opposed to the .40 cal. I'll look into this option more.

I did stop by my local based shop today and asked them about UMP clones. They specialize in class 3 stuff, and he said they had an Omega Gideon Shadow they converted into a machine gun and it ran fine. He said their Tommy Built (that they also made into a MG) had issues though.

As for the bolt, from my research the only tungsten-filled bolts are the actual HK UMP and an after market option from Michael's Machines. The USC bolt and all the other after market options are just solid steel. This likely only effects FA or FRT/SS though. The HK bolt will likely only be sourced from a total parts kits for big bucks, while the MM bolt is $750 and OOS on HKP. This does matter to me though, because I would like to put the upcoming UMP FRT in it. Wouldn't just a beefier recoil spring be enough to prevent bolt bounce though? That seems like the easiest solution.

This kinda brings me back to my original stance. If a 100% US made clone from S5 is g2g for ~$2k, then that's pretty appealing if it works out of the box. If an eventual FRT introduces bolt bounce, then a beefier recoil spring should suffice (I would think). Otherwise trans'ing a USC to UMP will be a lot more money, time, and hassle (and even once you do that, you then have to battle with 992(r) to SBR it).

I need to keep doing my research though. Maybe these newer US clones have issues I've not heard about yet. The UMP is a simple gun though, so it's not unthinkable that they could work perfectly fine if manufactured decently. Inb4 the more I research the more I fetishize all German/HK parts and markings.

Oddly even the Turk and Paki options seem fine FWIW. And I say that as someone that more or less will not buy a Turkish gun. Even I'm considering a Turk MP5. Just read this >>65010193 and see. Fuck, even the mags are more or less fine. What he says implies the mags get over a thousand rounds a day EACH. Are any of us seriously going to shoot that much per mag in a year? 6 months? Let alone in a day, daily. Like I said, Turk gun free here, but this seems to be a rare exception.

Maybe that is the case, but my MAC was a rattly broken shit heap by the time I got to 6000rnd. Chrome flaking off the bolt. Something in the trigger pack completely broke and gave out and the gun stop disconnecting and went full hammer follow auto. Had to throw an MKE pack in there to get it running.

Aesthetically, the folder is not really great on the full-size guns, but it will work. To me, it just looks wrong.
If you're really concerned about price, the AC Unity fixed stock is probably the best option. But HK stocks are not that much more.
>>
I don't think anyone really thinks direct blowback 9mm is truly "harsh recoiling," it's just that the roller and bearing delayed guns are much nicer. The MP5, Banshee, Kuna, etc. are more pleasant to shoot than any AR-9 or similar direct blowback 9mm. Sure, you could throw a hydraulic buffer in there and charge $2500 and some people will psyop themselves into thinking it's better than an MP5, because otherwise B&T wouldn't have any fans.

The MPX sort of feels like an anomaly. It's soft recoiling, but the action itself is so fast/harsh that it has a tendency to destroy triggers and experience other problems. How much of that is down to suboptimal design choices by Sig, and how much of it is down to a piston system being suboptimal for a PCC, I can't say.

>>65038482
I'd recommend you to shoot one before completely dismissing it. Bought one at a time when it was the cheapest modern SMG shaped 9 mm thing in my country and it has served me well ever since. Recoil wise, I don't consider it hard on the shoulder but I must be conscious of my stock weld or my cheek gets Thai massaged by the rising section of the comb (I shoot it with irons).
I believe that roller guns are nicer, but once I got the opportunity to shoot a suppressed MP5 side by side with my Evo and whatever the difference was, I couldn't really feel and appreciate it. Made me realize the Evo is actually "good enough" for me.

Still would like a nicely priced turk or paki MP5 for the steel construction and cool factor. I probably wouldn't be able to resist the urge to strap a fuckhuge maglite to it and wrapo some burning curtains around my leg...

No thanks.
