Can someone explain the appeal of a semi auto MP5? Not bait I just don't quite get it. I still really want one but I don't know how much fun it will be.

You again!
Fun.
It's extremely soft shooting (roller delayed makes it kick like a strong 22) otherwise you're right I think. The appeal of the MP5 is sending a shit ton of 9 down range in a short amount of time accurately.
Will die on this hill but a hi-point carbine (or insert whatever PCC) is just as effective.
That said MP5 clones have always been notoriously expensive so if you want one for your collection, now is the time.
Hi-point best point
ok post yours.
pic related, tacos for scale
>same size as mp5k
>suppressed same size as mp5sd but quieter
>shoots full power rifle round instead of anemic pistol calibers (300blk)
need I say more...
Imagine bragging about sig sewer being better than the most iconic submachine gun with a holochang, I can see where the budget ran out
>Imagine bragging about sig sewer being better than the most iconic submachine gun with a holochang
imagine running a 56 year old retro design because it's "iconic" over something modern and much better, you gonna run a fullsize cop light on top too like the iconic SAS setup because it's "iconic"?
>I can see where the budget ran out
buahahahaha budget? I don't know the meaning of the word, on a side note tho I only got the holochang because I'm not one to blindly follow the hive mindset and shit on something I have no first hand experience with and tbh I kinda like it...
sauce on the mag? I've only spent extravagant amounts on collectable ak mags... figure I should do the same with ar's
tbh = tbh
what in the frick autocorrect...
to be honest*
holy frick I'm done
>sigger
>newbie
Checks out, I'd say lurk moar but you're probably too busy being on the lookout for the latest product recall.
have a nice day newbie
get recalled, fricking newbie
>I'm not one to blindly follow the hive mindset and shit on something I have no first hand experience with and tbh I kinda like it...
Well you bought an open-emitter rifle optic, so....yeah. If you don't see the glaring issue there, I guess ignorance is bliss.
lmao newbie

>subsonic 300
>not .45 AARP equivalent
Uh anon…I…
>Ammo is 4x for factory loads
I have a 300 too and love it, but I also turned into a brass goblin at the range, hoovering up spent 556 brass so I could cut it down and reform it and spend hours rolling my own to probably save fifty cents a pop.
So that's an issue.
It's nice though.
ok cool anon how many rounds do you have for it
Bro the tacos don't even look good. frickin a get your shit together.
Motherfricker didn't even cook the veggies.... or the tortillas. Guy needs help.
>taco bell sauce
>MILD TACO BELL SAUCE
what the actual frick, bro
>taco bell hot sauce
>uncooked flour tartillas
disgusting
>Sigshart
Fricking lmao. I’d take an AP5 over that peasant trash brand any day.
Sure ya would bud...sure ya would
embarassing
Super low recoil while being adequate(if marginal) for self defense use and much quieter than rifles/shotguns are the big ones. Well that and fun. I thought PCCs we're pointless outside of range toys until I tried one, and I have owned others previously, now they suddenly make sense. Of course an AR-15 still makes more sense for most people imo, it's just that the MP5 crosses that line into being respectible on its own merits.
>Will die on this hill but a hi-point carbine (or insert whatever PCC) is just as effective
No. My scorpion for instance recoils as much as a 5.56 or .300 blk AR, it makes literally zero sense for a defensive tool unless better options simply aren't available.
Way louder with supers, identical effect on target with stupid expensive ammo with subs, significantly more recoil with either. Frankly I agree that .300 BLK SBRs are overall better if you're limited to having one or the other as a defensive tool, but if you buy your own ammo and just wanna shoot subsonics then it does a worse job at a higher price than a quality delayed blowback SMG. Do what I did and buy both.
>low recoil
for 9mm? no it's not, it's a surprisingly high recoil considering it's just 9mm
the cz scorpion is softer
the b&t 9 is softer
an ar-9 is much softer
the mp5 is only kept alive by Die Hard
You're completely and laughably wrong, noguns.
We shooting the same gun? My AP5 has extremely low recoil. It's easy to just keep wanting to shoot more.
i'm not saying it's high, I'm saying it's high for 9mm
Because it’s cool
The fun is finding one that you can convert to F/A in your garage.
It's plenty fun. Shooting 9mm accurately with a cool looking, low recoil gun is hard to make not fun. FA gets pretty old quick when your police department/DoD isn't paying for the ammo
F/A never gets old. You just use it less when the economy is tight.
Nah, I stopped using my HK53 for magdumps and burst about two months into owning it. Whatever floats your boat.
Sounds like you might just be gay, bud.
>Triphomosexualry
Yep. Sorry, it’s terminal.
Uh huh.
It's honestly whatever unless you're basing your entire personality around having F/A
>t. Inherited pre-86 Uzi
Guns and ammo will continue to be gouged for the next decade at least though. The last time there was a "buyer's market" was pre-2008.
Yeah.
Still gonna magdump on occasion, ‘cause full auto is fun.
If FA were legal I would immediately get a code monkey job, keep going until I'm on devops and making six figures, and then live in a shitty apartment and spend the remaining money on ammo.
the Dr. Krieger approach I see
>FA gets pretty old quick when your police department/DoD isn't paying for the ammo
This reality dawned on me recently. My dream gun is a full auto MP5SD. So let's say I could shoot one whenever I wanted. I would literally blow through hundreds of dollars worth of ammo every hour of shooting. The people having the most fun with guns right now are the youtube channels who have ammo sponsors and get rental guns sent to them for reviews.
>FA gets pretty old quick when your police department/DoD isn't paying for the ammo
Nope nope nope nope.
It is never ever not fun.
I like your gun and the magazine, fellow dumb custom magazine collector
Where can i get a mag like that?

because you can convert it to select fire without modifying the receiver and theyre nice silencer hosts.
They were used by hostage rescue in semi-auto pretty regularly.
also this
Toss a binary trigger on it and frick the ATF
You can be like those cool guys in movies or special forces and you can put a forced reset or binary trigger on it
because the semi auto MP5 design is a wink and a nod in a world flooded with surplus G3 trigger packs
You can get one.
I just think they are neat
OP if you want an MP5, now's the time.
The turks are flooding the market with clones and a US mfr is spooling up production, i reckon prices will drop and continue to drop after repubs take the senate and stymie any gun control scares for another year or so
Nostalgia anon... it was made famous by action movies of our youth also to post pics with along with beretta while watching the greatest xmas movie of all time, Die Hard...
1. HK Slap
2. Very soft shooting
3. HK Slap
4. It looks cool
5. HK Slap
honestly this. I just want to slap the shit out of my gun every time I reload.
>/thread
proof that the first post is not always the best post
It's fun. Now, it's not HK money fun, but if you can buy the clones for cheap then yes. Only reason I have an HK was becuase it was essentially the same price as the clones of the time after industry discount.
poors coping.
Full auto PCCS are awesome.
Don't want to make a new thread so I'll ask do OP question also apply to Uzi, P90, Kriss Vector and other semi auto smg?
It’s only Automatic and semi-automatic right? There’s no reason to say fully automatic right?
burst is still considered auto for whatever reason
poorgay cope
I just think they're neat.
just buy an AR bro
Is the full size or k quieter when suppressed?
>Can someone explain the appeal
it goes bla bla bla x 30 and when you reload you spend extra time to lock the bolt for cool points and slap it goes ka-chik, also roller-delayed guntism
They're fun and soft shooting, also look cool.
it’s transitionary gun between OG stamped pistol cartridge weapons and tacticool new age shit. Iconic and a joy to shoot.
To take pictures larping like you're in some video game or movie you like. Completely pointless gun and would make me feel like a cuck every time I looked at it if I had one.
I bet the people who own these and slap on the cuck braces are probably the first to make fun of people with ban state ARs
I have a PTR clone and I got it purely because it was the cool gun during my childhood. A scorpion is a "better" gun in almost every measurable way. That being said it is a very fun gun to put a suppressor on and go larp in the woods with, and I regret nothing.
