Screwschom Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Im not feelin the Z-point and Eo-tech's for this gun, I'm thinkin POSP 4x24 all the way. Link to post Share on other sites
Sledge Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Bah, all I see is an Uzi with RIS... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And that's a bad thing how? The manliest AEG in new H&K format, baby! Now, I would like the official "we want a UCP that uses the same mags as the MP7" campaign to start here. Link to post Share on other sites
Verymanynames Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 dammit....just as i finally saved up some money....but 250??? seems a tad steep.... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> How is that steep? The Mp5k is only like $230 something, this isnt far off that mark. Link to post Share on other sites
systema Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Actually it's like $180 overseas. This is a more AEPish gun. However, usually the selling price will be less than what they are giving as the suggested retail price. I hope it's less than $200. Link to post Share on other sites

Now, I would like the official "we want a UCP that uses the same mags as the MP7" campaign to start here. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> My train of thought was that unless you really, really have to have an Uzi, you'll be better served by a half-dozen other SMGs, at least in the way of replacement parts and upgrades. I'm willing to bet that this gun'll be the same deal, but it does already have an RIS, so I may be wrong. But I smell another PSG-1... Link to post Share on other sites

GMB Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Now, I would like the official "we want a UCP that uses the same mags as the MP7" campaign to start here. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm assuming this is complete sarcasm, seeing as you were scolding people in their desires for a 5-7 GBB, and the UCP is/was basically a FiveseveN reskin with a different proprietary caliber.

Sledge Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Let's see, size of a large pistol, so can be holstered rather than slung; collapsable stock; and folding forward grip. All this allows for deployment as a pistol or a shoulder weapon, giving you a CQB primary or a woodland backup. Yes, this is going to be a very impractical gun. I'd far rather have a bigger SMG. Oh, and UCP thing isn't sarcasm. If it used the same magazines as the MP7 (presuming an AEP rather than GBB), it would be a highly practical addition to the MP7. The 5-7 if ever released in airsoft form would just be another pistol. Link to post Share on other sites

Monk Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 wait a minute - how are we going to holster this gun - don't think about this as a primary weapon - shall we go with a BHI triple AK pouch or what? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Why not think about it as a primary. For CQB it's really perfect. Looks to have more power than the MP5K, which IMHO is really a great CQB gun. Why holster it at all? Admittedly, I wouldn't take into a woodland scenario. It's too large as a sidearm and not quite a long arm, but for a sniper backup or a police/terrorist scenario it fits the bill nicely. Oh, and it's not another M4 variant. As far as people calling this expensive, do keep in mind that it is for all intents and purposes an AEG. It's a very affordable one at that. Typically, a TM AEG goes for about $270-285 here in the States. I expect this one to be at most $220 from overseas vendors, and given the size, the shipping should be comparable to that of a pistol. Also, this really does put to rest any notions of Marui being on the way out. They've created this niche and it looks like they have every intention of exploiting the heck out of it.

Sledge Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 IIRC, there is a tanker style shoulder rig for the MP7. I wonder if they do a double rig for going dualies? Link to post Share on other sites
FJ2 - Kaye Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 Yup, i was thinking a sniper backup weapon. Even if it only had AEP power (which i don't reckon is too bad) it'd be plenty. Much better than an auto glock or mac11 style thing i think, probably a lot more accurate anyway. Link to post Share on other sites
Trasher Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 I shot the RS MP7 so it's no brainer to get the airsoft! The search for my backup sidearm is over! Can't wait so spend $$$. Link to post Share on other sites
The End Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 How is that steep? The Mp5k is only like $230 something, this isnt far off that mark. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes the MP5K is is around 170 overseas. However the Mp5k is an actual AEG, not an AEP, even though I'm somewhat impressed with the AEP technology. 250 can get you alot of full size rifles and smaller SMGS, that have the proven AEG technology/ Link to post Share on other sites
commandercolt Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 You guys speak like AEP's are the devil. From what I've experienced thus far with mine, they are great performers for their price/size. Also, this could probably be a half decent woods primary as well. I often use stock aeg's in the woods with no problems or feeling like I was hendered because of the power, and considering the mp7 should chrono the same as a full size aeg, I'd imagine it would be fine.

UltimateSlacker Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 Well I've been considering buying An Mp5k this month.... But... With this comiing out..... Hopfully.... I should get a good price on the second hand market for all those unwanted Mp5k's SlackStar Link to post Share on other sites

Even though this takes a 7.2v battery and has a different gearbox doesnt mean its *beep*. I mean when the V7 box came out people werent like "OMG LONGARMELECTRICGUN its gonna be ######!!!111oneone" Link to post Share on other sites
Agent47 Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 Why not think about it as a primary. For CQB it's really perfect.

Oh, and it's not another M4 variant. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> as I usually play woodland, and have an AUG (spotter), I might need the MP7 for backup, as my AUG has been acting very strange (maybe I left the Ni-CD battery connected too long...) lately, and I need an extra weapon that can easily match the AUG in firepower. and then, the MP7 could be my CA249's backup. there is a leg holster for an MP7 made somewhere in Germany but I dunno if I can get access to it...or I could just make HSGI do a kustom one for me.

Myro Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 I'm not a fan of H&Ks, but I must say, this looks awesome. I hope the other upcoming TM SMGs shoot like stock Maruis like this one does. Link to post Share on other sites

Glenn Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 Well, I think it looks great. I'm going to wait until I can get a long type mag, a Zeiss optic, and a proper MP7 silencer in one order. And when I have read some positive reviews. And when I get my fat tax return back. Just finished my taxes, Turbotax rulezz. Link to post Share on other sites
