as would I...I have shot the MP5 and I must say it was a hoot. Now that I think about it I have shot 2...20 years apart. the MP5 in FA is a treat to shoot...so long as you have the $$$ for ammo. Hell, I would sell my R1 for ammo if I could shot one legally at my club...or for grouse as stated earlier
MP5 for sale in the EE
- Thread starter KDX
- Start date
my question, probably along with many others, is why whould you sell it. i wish i could buy it and i could right now but the 12(X) bulls**t is in the way.

I think hunting would be a lot more fun with a fully automatic firearm like an MP5 or MP5A1.

Perhaps the guy has a bunch of 12x guns...it has to be tough to own the steel and keep it locked away. One can only clean and polish so much before the joy becomes killed...
I feel this way everytime I leave my Pop's ranch...and he loves to remind me about it
Pops- " Hey Dugy, grab that 12x you just cleaned for the 1,000th time. She is clean enough... take her home with with ya and that sack of ammo and mags...oh wait, you decided to NOT get you FAC when it told you to and wanted to be a ski bum before university, bang tons of girls drink beers etc. in Whistler for 6 years, and mess around when I warned you the 'Man' would come down on interesting Firearms...hahaha...sorry boy why not take the stainless Colt Python in 4in instead or anyone of her 10+ sisters...oh wait you can't!
...ahh screw it boy go do the dishes instead. And tell that Pitdog to stop chasing the neighbours lamas..." blah,blah,blah
(quite cry from me)
He is joking in a very sad way as he wants me to have all but 4 of his guns...It actually breaks his heart as he bought several of the 12x rifles with me in mind as I was to young and poor to afford them at the time.
I still ask to handle,strip, and oil them everytime I go for a visit
I have even bought a bunch of ammo he keeps in 'ammo cans' ( tks smoking gun fx) just because that is all I can do to participate.
Both my lil' sisters are equally as bum'ed out as they loved the PPK, Uzi and FN's...They have their PAL's too, but were born to late.

Nice MP5.
I guess the 3K is suitable to own one. It would be a very expensive paperweight (locked up of course).
considering you cant shoot it go an buy a metal Airsoft or BB replica and save the extra $2500. Or is Airsoft illegal now too.
I agree with GT - write a letter or loose your politically incorrect rifles too (AR15)
Ask anyone with 12(5) if it sux. It does

Plus, this time they will simply confiscate your AR15. Flood them bastids with letters! Even though I live in a Liberal riding (South Etobicoke) I sent my MP Ignatieff (shudders) several letters that have been confirmed recieved. Do it!

If I could I would. Just to have.
Forgive the newbie question.
The 12.x class for the MP5 allows you just to own it, but you can't take it to a range and fire it?
That sucks! Its like being told "I just think of you as a friend" by that hottie you were SURE liked you.

You used to be able to, I believe there is a court case pending to allow prohibs back on the range.
The MP5 is to big and heavy (though it tracks well) for the 9mm cartridge, if we could still get MP5's the only one I would consider would be the MP5K PDW.
But I still think the B&T MP9 (TP9) is the best designed subgun for the 9mm, and you CAN still get them (and at a much better price then a HK MP5 would likely sell for ).

@MPI: no way. Gave the TP9 a fair chance, but I really don't like the charging handle, the "iron", erm, I mean "plastic sights", trigger is crap, even worse then the Glock trigger.
I'd take the MP5 over the TP9 for sure.
