So over the last couple of years I have had the pleasure of shooting some decent PPCs. The B&Ts being right up there, however I have always liked the looks and maybe buy into the legends of the MP5.
With the semi-recent release of the SP5 and the SP5K I am coming back around to looking at these again but I haven’t “pull the trigger” because as shameful as it may sound I have never shot an MP5. Just never had the opportunity so I don’t have any real experience to compare.
This takes me back to my purchase of a Sig210. Never shot one. Always loved the looks. Historic reliability and accuracy, so I went and bought an American version (I know, but it’s damn nice) but while I was in the store I made the mistake of picking up a CZ Shadow II, which ultimately I should have bought as it fit my needs better. Is this MP5 the same scenario…
With that out there, is the MP5 or it’s recent clones still a good value, and are they still one of the top dogs compared to the new platforms?
Is it really worth going with a legit H&K in today’s climate or does a PTR fit the bill? If Not, what are the clones to stay away from?
Is the B&T APC or even the GMB9 a better option these days? If so, why? Trigger? Mags? Parts availability? Mag functionality with my side arm is a nice option but I have seen feed issues with most platforms that use the Glock mags.
I’m curious to here from those who own or use these what their thoughts are over the time that they’ve had theirs. Does it turn into a safe queen, or is it one of the top choices on range day?
