.22 MP5! No not rhineland.

[nebojsa_o]

I really hope this pan's out and the gun isn't a fragile/finiky pos.

Although, I would be happy to test it for you.

What was to problem with the Rhinelands?

What was to problem with the Rhinelands?

10% or more of the ones imported into Canada had serious problems. The owner of Rhineland made a lot of promises, but when he did keep them, it was weeks or months later than promised. Some were completely left hanging.

Mine works perfectly, but I've had to replace the stock.

Thanx Canuck.

I was gonna jump on the badwagon but a member out west advised to wait untill "things" got better.

Never bought one...........................

I definitely want one of these bad boys, if the price is right. Hopefully as mentioned it is a decent piece work.

 

[TheGamerXxX]

I gotta say Im as intrigued as most posters here, but I will wait a while after release to hear peoples reviews... and hopefully after a year or so maybe the price will come down a bit too

What's the price? So far nobody has said anything! Personally, if the gun sells for $300, I really don't see the point in waiting for the price to come down. It's not likely going to get any lower.

 

[Max Owner]

Somewhere earlier in the thread it was mentioned in the $800-$1,000 range, I think.

 

[TheGamerXxX]

Yeah thats what Im going off of around 1K... which isnt really worth it for a cool looking .22 Especially since it hasn't proven itself yet either.

The price listed on the site and for the USA is around 500.

 

[Matt_P]

I wouldn't pay more than 500 for it....

 

[Max Owner]

Bet it would be popular with the Tacticool guys who shoot indoors. Practice their SWATing.

surf over to ar15.com

I think they might have already landed in the US

 

[Slowbalt]

If they're down there maybie Questar could help us out ?!

 

[Ljungman]

I want one but I wouldn't pay a dime over $700.

 

[Big JD-From the hills]

Can we really say how much we will pay for it before they are sold to the public and have some rd's down the pipe? What if its as reliable as an ar-7... surely no one's hardly going to buy it. If it works like a swiss watch and shows similar craftsmanship, they could sell near the $1k mark. But if its similar quality/construction to the walter p22.... there is no way I would buy it for even $500. Sadly I suspect this may be the case.

i gave bluelinesports a call yesterday
they say it is currently for LE order only and they are working to get it approved for civilian sale (not sure if it means it is currently a prohib)
they also quote me around 6~700 for the price when it is open for public purchase
they said they are trying to have it done before the end of january

 

[shazam*]

great... 'cause law enforcement needs more .22's

 

[Max Owner]

Cheap practice for tactical type stuff......................

 

[TheGamerXxX]

Yes, but most rifles etc are bought by the PD, and since they already have them, how would spending another 500-700 be a good thing? It offers no same recoil (im guessing), Its like practicing to shoot a 45 with a .22, may improve trigger control, but other than that its a different ball game.

Hmm So we're looking at late January before we even hear anything Im guessing... I can wait.
