Still looking for a answer to this. I am excited about the new PSA-5, but I do not want it unless I can get it in a carbine version. (A2-A5 style) either fixed or telescoping stock. Then all we will need to do is get our tax stamp and have the barrel cut/crowned. I would much rather have the carbine with the 8.9 inch barrel than one made from what I am seeing in the current pictures which look like a 4.5 inch barrel. If I am going to get a 9mm with that length barrel, it is going to be a actual pistol and not the MP5.

All I know is I’m finally going to get the MP5 clone I’ve always wanted. Thanks PSA and Magpul!

Something I was wondering, was can you fit the old style hand guards on this? I assume so but I wanted to double check I was always a big fan of these: https://www.heckler-koch.com/typo3temp/_processed_/csm_MP5A3_re_6691b1ed48.png Edit: I see now that it looks like its going to be to long to fit. ![]() View Quote |

I'm holding out for the PSA. An MP5 clone isn't worth more than a grand for me, so there aren't any options at that price yet. Hopefully PSA comes in with a good price point, and I'm willing to wait until they do. If their clone is more than that, I'll get by with my PSA 9 with glock mags.

The PTR9 is starting to look a lot more appealing. I have a Zenith that scratches my itch for now but I'd love to get a couple more roller lock guns - and PSA is where I'm hoping to do it if they can keep the price down. But I'm not going to beta test their stuff. I'll wait till the bugs get worked out. |

Quoted: Seems like their early production models still tend to have teething problems as well, if the recent release of the AK-V is any indication. So even when they release their MP5, I'm still going to wait a few months to make sure their aren't issues that force a recall of all the guns or something like that. So that means more like mid 2020 for me.

Quoted: They really need to hurry up, by the time they get this out there is the real possibility of the majority of the country being under an AWB if not the entire country. View Quote |

But after finally assembling my Colt Style PA-9 last night (that I purchased all the parts from PSA, for back in 2016 and 2017) only to find out that the bolt was out of spec and the upper will not close and latch to the lower, I will wait. This is a known issue that they made right for many others when it first popped up in late 2017/early 2018. My parts sat on the shelf for a while so hopefully the will for me too (still waiting for a reply) I doubt I will buy the 1st generation of any PSA product again. Don't get me wrong, I love PSA, but their constant use of their customer base as their beta testers (PA-10, AK, PA-9, etc.) is getting a bit old. |

Well, we’re getting close to the second quarter of 2019. Any updates on release?

Given the amount of R&D to make this sucker run and delays, I'm going to go out on a limb and guess the new price of these are going to be around $1200. When they said $800-1000, a lot of us were scratching our heads saying 'How are they going to do that?' Still a great price for an MP5 clone if it performs as well as the other clones, which start about $500 higher.

Just concerned with Washington state laws getting worse in the mean time. |

Quoted: Not really. Some may give up and buy a Zenith but they would have anyway. Others may hold out (like myself) until all options are on the table, then make their choice. I was never going to pay high dollars for a gun made in Turkey. I'd rather have a PTR (I have a PTR91 and love it), made in America. But since PSA announced their offering, I'm holding out. I probably don't need to say this, but I hope PSA takes their time and does it right rather than rush to market. View Quote |

Quoted: This may be a lesson in the wisdom of waiting to announce new products until they're in production ![]() View Quote Most people nowadays want everything instantly, they get upset if they have to wait. That may be extreme but, waiting 2yr since it was first teased at SHOT 2018 until a currently projected 2019 Q4 launch, is a bit excessive. I wouldn’t be surprised if some people get annoyed and give up. PSA said “hey guys, we have one of the coolest guns in history and are going to make our own for cheap! But it’ll take 2yr before you can buy it.” That is not how you do a product introduction, sorry. That said, I am still a buyer of both a pistol and K version if they’re in the $1k ball park as alluded to previously. |
