hitmanNo2 Posted April 17, 2021 Report Share Posted April 17, 2021 I was going to make a thread but..meh. Another Glock. Woo...MP5, be it NGRS or MWS, won't have a stamped steel receiver so will be kind of a let down. Link to post Share on other sites
Gunnman Posted April 18, 2021 Report Share Posted April 18, 2021 Glock 19 and a MP5? Yay, maybe they'll do an M4 too. I love unique weapons. Link to post Share on other sites
sandstorm Posted April 18, 2021 Report Share Posted April 18, 2021 MP5 would be a bit neat if they pulled their Breacher stunt on us, and it was GBBr with Maruit reliability. But like hitman said, they'd have to get it 'right' externally too to really stand out. Link to post Share on other sites
Got Wood? Posted April 18, 2021 Report Share Posted April 18, 2021 An MWS MP5 I’d be interested in. The WE ones while good are a little too pricey compared to all their other stuff Link to post Share on other sites
Wingmann Posted April 18, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2021 If that MP5 is a GBB, I'll be all over it, and it probably is, since the grip is quite thin when compared to the trigger guard. Glocks are the invention of the Devil, so I got nothing about that. Link to post Share on other sites
Hatchet Posted April 19, 2021 Report Share Posted April 19, 2021 Either would be interesting. An NGRS MP5 would be great, just to have updated furniture and hop unit (with pixies in). Not sure where they'd put the recoil though. Cocking handle? Some sort of modified gearbox so you can fit it in the top part of the receiver? If it was in the stock that'd limit your model options, which seems less likely. On the other hand, a GBB MP5K could be hilariously good fun... Link to post Share on other sites
coolurjets Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 Fun factoid, the original TM Recoil patent was submitted with an M4 & MP5 variant. On the glock front, an updated 18c or a 17 with an RMR cut would be great. Link to post Share on other sites
TheFull9 Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 Given the state of MP5 offerings out there that I've seen, I'd very strongly consider either. Been properly after a good one for almost a year now, doesn't look like the steel Avalons are getting made again, not sure I even want to wait for the LCT. One day someone will make a highly reliable and generally solid performing EBB/GBB with the realistic externals we want out of the box. Not sure when, but I'm not sure what's more likely - TM doing steel or VFC doing great insides. Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 I think TM with a pricey aftermarket steel kit is the most likely way to end up there. Link to post Share on other sites
Gunmane Posted April 22, 2021 Report Share Posted April 22, 2021 Whilst I have a mate that is on a MP5 binge lately, I doubt he will even look at a TM one regardless if it is ebb or gbb simply because he prefers to scrounge up things to rebuild. I myself have little interest sadly, despite how much I want to be for TM. Link to post Share on other sites

Wingmann Posted April 22, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2021 ICS has got the CES-P, which is steel, but there's only one "real looking" model. Link to post Share on other sites
TheFull9 Posted April 22, 2021 Report Share Posted April 22, 2021 GHK gas may be interesting (not sure if they have any plans?) but given LCT's EBB reviews so far I'd not sure I'd be hopeful for it; unless they've turned things around? I considered the ICS of course, nice option for sure but I don't know the external dimensions whereas I know the Avalons allow RS stocks, handguards and sight rails to fit right on. To me, when it comes down to it, I find that I think I care about steel and realistic outsides a lot, but I end up caring about that a lot less than I care about the assuring reliability and predictable good performance (usually of a TM) as soon as they say game on - or another way to phrase it, I care a lot less about the positives of externals than I do about bad internals when a gun lets me down.. personally. That and even if you handle them side by side, if you did a blind test most people probably won't feel what's steel and what's zamac under paint, if they were being honest with themselves. Rattley stocks and handguard etc yes and higher end materials can help prevent that over time/a lot of use, but any pride about outsides is quickly side-lined when the trigger's pulled on game day - at least to me. Even though I play maybe once every 18 months, that remains my mindset. Obviously if you're just going to physically batter your guns around, something like an LCT makes a lot of sense. It's hard to know exactly the way to word this and a lot of my own purchases in the past don't even mirror this mindset, but I've often put the money in to getting work done on better guts for nice looking guns in the past. Pricey option though and I think you often need a lot of cash and/or someone with a ton of experience to make bad internals up to TM's general standards (sure some folks not TM fans will disagree ofc). At one end of the scale you get the VFC GBB, takes almost everything RS and you make something that looks, feels and sounds immense; will probably be unique if not close to it if you get tons of RS parts and then maybe you get one that runs ok, or maybe it's a nightmare for all time. Other end of the scale is probably a forever bone-stock OG TM AEG. Where's the best spot in the middle? Tough one... Link to post Share on other sites
Hatchet Posted April 23, 2021 Report Share Posted April 23, 2021 It's a recoil MP5 A5 with built in mosfet, 3rd burst, new mags and you have to use the charging handle/hk slap when reloading. Looks like I better start saving... Link to post Share on other sites

TheFull9 Posted April 23, 2021 Report Share Posted April 23, 2021 Yeah I'm sold, I'll swap a steel body for some recoil, bolt functions and TM quality - pretty damn certain there'll be a good aftermarket. https://www.hyperdouraku.com/event/marufes_ol4/index.html Link to post Share on other sites
Hatchet Posted April 23, 2021 Report Share Posted April 23, 2021 Hopefully be an MP5 SD5 at some point too... Link to post Share on other sites
Wingmann Posted April 23, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2021 Well, not bad news overall. It seems they created a nice up-to-date package with the MP5 and surely some other models will follow suit. Link to post Share on other sites
Gunmane Posted April 23, 2021 Report Share Posted April 23, 2021 Well that was certainly interesting. Love how they go for those big action ads and I rather just watch Marui Man do his thing instead (I am now wanting him to star in a Japanese retelling of Die Hard now). Gearbox scares me but at least the wires are outside the shell, though I assume there is no motor cage sadly. I imagine Laylax is already drawing up plans for this thing if not adapting their existing parts for it. It will high price and barely imported here I reckon, but I do hope it does well.

Honzo Posted April 24, 2021 Report Share Posted April 24, 2021 Marui mp5 with the working cocking handle looks great. and is that a GBB AKM too?..... Link to post Share on other sites
thatguy404 Posted April 24, 2021 Report Share Posted April 24, 2021 GBB AKM was teased 2019 I think. Link to post Share on other sites
Gunnman Posted May 5, 2021 Report Share Posted May 5, 2021 Called that, didn't I? Next year they will unveal their umpteenth Hi-Capa and everyone will go wild. Can't wait, I love variety. Link to post Share on other sites
