There is one for sale in the private firearms section you might want to ask him about it and probably purchase his .

Nobody has one?

It could be that nobody is sure of your question; it is rather ambiguous. There really isn't much to say about such a gun.

It's a fun gun, reliable, but not something for CCW, accuracy, IDPA, best choice for home-protection, or single-hand sillhouette shooting.

The iron sights may as well have been patterned from cardboard cut-outs a kid did in 2nd Grade arts-and-crafts; but if you get the side-cocker, it has a picatinny rail for a red-dot.

The bigger of the two uses M3 .45ACP mags, which is fun, if like me, you've had several dozen laying around since about the mid-1980's. Otherwise, you are limited to 10 rounds in a pinned M3 mag; the one that comes with it will be 10 rnd only.

And because of that, if you were to run out of ammunition in the 10-round mag, you could always bonk someone over the head with the gun; it's heavier than a brick and about as wieldy as one.

Trigger is MUCH better than the old MAC-10s / MAC-11s with little to no slap. Overall it is much better built, and the bolt is much more beefy than the old MAC-10s / MAC-11s as well. That's nice too, but it's not like it's the next Steyr SPP.

Without a doubt, it is reliable; it will run all day without fail.

But fun is as fun does; it's a novelty and conversation piece, and other than that fun-factor and nifty evil-gun appearance, it's surely not a better or more useful gun, or more efficient than what a Glock can do, at the same or less cost, with the same number of round and mags. And the Glock will be much more accurate with more versatility.

I didn't get the MPA pistol in 9mm (only the .45ACP), BUT I also own the MPA-971 Carbine in 9mm which uses Suomi drum mags; again, reliable, fun, but damned near as heavy as a Barrett M95 and not something I would go for as an entry gun or take along while long-range hiking in the woods.

Get one for fun and for conversation, but really not for much else.
