Quoted: This is some thing that I would be interested in, if it is done correctly. I don’t see the point in making it in alternate calibers. Is anyone really going to stick an M lock rail on one of these? An original reproduction would be fun to shoot, but I can’t imagine this evolving into something that competes against the AK or the AR. View Quote Just cheaper to shoot. If the mag looks basically like an 8mm one I will take one in any of the other calibers over 8mm kurz just to shoot it cheaper/more. |

I guess 300BO is just an easy button for them once the 5.56 one has been made and lets them cut into a little more of the market of folks who only want 5.56, but are bored with 5.56 and tell themselves "it's only barrel change away from being a 5.56" when they buy a 300BO |

Forget the MP5...I want that and the ammo from AAC that goes with it.

View Quote If everyone who buys one of these buys it in 8mm Kurtz, there’s no reason why that caliber should cost more than 76 2 x 39. That’s fine if they want to sell it in alternate calibers, but at that point you might as well just buy an AR. It’s superior in every way. |

I would have been happier with a Galil clone but yeah, STG 44 is interesting.

That would be so awesome in a common caliber.
Then they can do a PPSH. And an affordable BAR. And an M79 in 37mm. |

PSA needs to stock bushel baskets to ship all of their empty promises.

View Quote Oh snap, just searched M79s, didn't know they were being made! Years ago I kept hearing rumblings about it but stopped paying attention. .. now, what to sell to fund one. And on the PPSHs, I wish I bought a parts kit years ago, honestly though I don't know what it takes to build one. I'm gonna have to dig into it. |

Quoted: And a PSA 5.56 FAL. Or a clone of the Brazilian IA2, which is a 5.56mm FAL with a dedicated aluminum receiver, AR-18 rotating bolt instead of the tilting bolt, and AR-18 gas system with a polymer trigger housing instead of a steel or aluminum one. |

It would be cool if they dump the giant logo before production.

While I wouldn’t be be opposed to one, since I could reload for it, most folks are going to want it in a common caliber so they aren’t reliant on one or two ammo manufacturers who only produce it in salad day times. |

Quoted: Meh. Out-dated, bulky and heavy. Quite the winning combo. View Quote Attached File Fuck the mp5 too. B&T Apc9k is the best pcc. Smaller than a mp5k, takes glock mags and has way better controls. |

I’m over the MP5 clone thing, there are now MP5 clones on the market for barely a grand. The HMG has been an abortion for years. If PSA can get it to market they’re awesome.

I paid $170 for mine about 7 years ago. They are now closing in on $1k. Lots of neat and cheaper kits out there unless it has to be a PPSh. Maybe an M47 which is loosely PPSh based. |

View Quote Attached File Glock mags are irrelevant, MP5 controls are ambi and perfectly fine if you're able to operate anything other than an AR, and roller delayed blowback is vastly superior to straight blowback. It's okay, maybe someday someone will make something better than the MP5...but not yet. |

So it looks like in theory you can get new manufactured 7.92 kurz made by Privi Partisan. But good luck finding any in stock, brass or loaded. |

View Quote That was, or maybe still is being made. But around $7000+, maybe 8000 |
