I buddy had the Wolf and I was very impressed.
    great feedback , thanks brother

    That is an Obsidian 45 in long in my pic. Another option is the just released Obsidian 9, although the Omega 9k seems tailor made for these PCCs.

    I went with a keymod rail and folding brace as well. Yes that is a cheap optic after I blew money on the ambi lower. Been working though, no complaints at $120 for it used.

    The Zenith/MKE SEF trigger that came with this is actually nicer than this ambi trigger pack. Both work well enough, but I do like the ambis ability to select safe/fire similar to an AR while shouldering it.

    I have a Tirant 45 that is massive from back in the day. But its the size of the weapon even though it works nice on my MPX.

    These lower end RDS are Nice and I have some enforce lights too, good stuff. Im a fan of the Romeo5 from Sig. good stuff in the optics market. Iraqguns is dropping off some nice high end 9mm for the sub gun shoot in the am.

    In hindsight, I might have gone with a TPM MP5SD, as they're user serviceable cans and already 922R. Still not cheap by any means but probably the best way to get into a SD.

    I took mine out today and rocked it hard side by side with my MPX, it was good times. The stock worked ok but I look forward to the stamp and stiffer stock. Both ran perfect, but you gotta love the MPX with a G SSA trigger and ambi safety etc. I much prefer the charging the Mp5 vs MPX. Mark loved the Mp5 trigger and was all over triple taps at full auto speed. Mark has an installed full auto trigger finger!! He felt like he could get into a rhythm better with the Mp5.

    All in all both were awesome, and if you don't have one, buy one. Only downside is you can burn 500 rounds in 30 minutes haha, no shit really though.

    I shot an MPX years ago when they first came out, seemed like an AR / MP5 hybrid. It's nice to see so many options for 9mm carbines / SMG types, especially the EVO Scorpion- which is solid yet inexpensive option. I wish I could have gone that route financially, but I knew I had to have an MP5.

    And yeah, you're not kidding about burning through 500 rounds with a quickness...

    Maybe I'm old school, but that's the look that does the most for me. Only alteration I would do is to get a rail to mount a red dot on.

    +1 for me! The A2 would be what I would buy. I've shot a K, but the fixed stock plus the longer handguard is just a pleasure to shoot. Something like that would mean I show up at the range with a couple cases of 9mm, and somehow they would magically disappear much to quickly.
