HK MP5 .22 thoughts?

[LADave]

Anyone have any experience with these? turners had them at $479.99

They look quite fun. I just thought they felt too much like a "toy". I got the Umarex HK 416-22. It's very solid feeling compared to the ATI/GSG MP 5-22.

I got one during the spring turners sale and I got to say, it's a lot of fun and super accurate! has some weight to it, so can be a bit tiring to shoot for longer sessions. insanely hard to find extra mags for a non-ripoff price. I would recommend if you are leaning towards one.

I'm planning to get a claw mount and reflex sight for it next. The iron sights are great but it's hard to use with with earmuffs on.

the only thing holding me back is the cheesy faux suppresor ...looks too big in my opinion

I got one but its the SD version! I LOVE ITTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And they even make a fixed stock for it, which for the people that really hate the wobble in the collapsible stock, its a great fix! Good luck in your choice!

Nice toy. I bought mine after Christmas 2012, put a vortex sparc on top and while shooting @ Insight Indoor Range in Artesia laat month when 3 guys 2 lanes on my right were looking at me shooting them they talked to the Range Officer. After I done shooting the range officer told me that the guys were wondering why I have a suppressed MP5 in California.. Hehehehehe

It shoots tight too.... I will put in fixed stock, soon

same here! I was at an outdoor ranged and someone asked me if I was suppressed, I said yes! LOL. Only negatives is cleaning can be a little tough. No tools are needed for dissassembly. Do not settle for a cheap *** ATI or GSG-5 plastic junker! Get the Walters umarex MP5! Deadly accurate with just Iron sights. There are several rails that will fit but they are hard to install (patience). PM me and i'll share any best practices or advice. Duh! Look at my call name! Woot Woot!

Do you need a tool to twist off the fake can, or will it just twist off by hand? I'm thinking on some trips to the range, I don't want curious busy bodies looking at my direction. I might just twist it off and shoot with the skinny barrel.

Not that I own one yet, but just thinking about that scenario.

I wish I can find one here at that price...

went with a friend to pick his up and brought along my sons CZ 452 scout along. the stock seems quite short. felt pretty solid to me. only thing for me is with how compact it was, shooting with the iron sights have you "hunched" in pretty tight to shoot. to me this feels more of an outdoor gun, and spend a day just shooting stuff. I think it may be a little more fun/comfortable shooting with a red dot where you wouldn't have to try aiming. I don't see this a gun that would be fun shooting paper targets. I recently picked up the CZ too and surprisingly ended up falling in love shooting it. my friend seemed to also like shooting the CZ over the HK/Umarex MP5. not sure how that matters really, unless you don't have a bolt action 22 and may look into one of those instead.

If the Walther/Umarex is built like the HK416-22 then I'd get one too. Noth the ATI or GSG though.

Have the GSG and have problems.

I got the GSG and it fails to fire, first time at range.

I ran different brands, but in all honesty I just took it out of the box and tried shooting.

Anyone else have misfires with this gun or is it just my stupidity for not scrubbing out gun before shooting?

They look quit fun. I just thought they felt too much like a "toy". I got the Umarex HK 416-22. It's very solid feeling compared to the MP 5.

Sorry, but you are confused. The ATI MP5 feels like a toy, The HK MP5A5 .22lr is nearly the same weight as a 9mm / 10mm MP5. I held both and its fairly clear the HK MP5A5 .22lr is a solid firearm, so I bought it.

Its a great firearm and I have been killing tennis balls at 50+ yards since I bought it.

Only complaint is the A5 stock doesnt have a cheek rest since its a slider. I may go and buy a solid stock.
