I have high hopes for the new LWRC offering, hopefully it's got the secret sauce from the MP5.
It might be the gun the UMP should have been.

The mpx has great potential, but it’s Sig so skip the recall and go with B&T.
Honestly, the B&T is the only PCC that I have any actual interest in that has come out recently. Everything I thought I was gonna like such as the Scorpion Evo just didn't really do it for me. Nothing wrong with them really, but I knew I'd never actually shoot it. I think that last 9mm PCC platform I bought was the B&T TP9.
I shoot my old school Uzi just because I have a real one and it's like breaking out the M1 garand. But mostly I shoot one of my MP5 derivatives and my TP9 from time to time. Given that the APC Pro takes the same magazines I could see actually shooting that one when I finally grab one.
Can't remember the last time I shot my Colt 6450, it's been awhile. One day when I finally get a Gustav M45 (Swedish K) I'll probably put a lot of trigger time on that one just because I've wanted one forever.
I'd take the MP5, it is better built and sturdier. I feel like a bolt catch on the MP5 would close the gap in terms of reload speed as many bring up that point when comparing the MP5 and MPX.
The MPX is a 6061 extrusion and I hate extruded 6061 receivers lol.
My buddy has real HK guns. He is one of those guys that buys a $400 stock to make it more HK WARTIME legit. Stuff I know nothing of. The Zenith trigger, I found acceptable because it’s a RDS - center mass type gun.
I did just order an ambi safety for my Zenith, wish it came with.

MP5 is the better gun. They've been around for many decades and their reliability is proven. While the MPX has more "modern" features(in reality its just more like a AR15,boring and not innovative), I keep seeing reports of broken trigger groups. Heard they are not the best suppressor hosts either.
