You guys are making this really hard for me.

Not when discussing these two.

Never noticed a difference between the two. Next time Pappabear brings the sub guns out, we'll have to try to hear any difference.

Congrats! You will enjoy them. Even if you decide you don’t like one of them, you should have no trouble selling either of them.

You better sound off that you like to do the HK bolt slap, or I’ll slap you like a….. Mp5 bolt catch ;)

And…..



I cross shopped them and got an MP5, waiting for an MP5k - LGS says I’m top of the list for one, but they haven’t seen on in over a year(?). I think the right, objective answer is the B&T. Nostalgia got me to get the MP5. Went to pick it up, took a pic of it in the LGS and sent a pic to all my gun buddies with the message “Ho, ho, ho. Now I have a machine gun.” I have a P7 too, so I just need some C4 and Det cord to remake “Die Hard”.

I did kind of chimera it, I got the B&T collapsing Arm brace for the MP5. That check weld and the turret with front circle/post takes a bit getting used to. I think I’ll eventually SBR it and put a fixed stock on it.

The SP5 safety I think is improved over the years? It’s ambi and not that bad to manipulate.

The Magpul lower and safety make selector manipulation very easy. AR easy. And a Bill Springfield trigger pack make the trigger quite nice. Not Geissele nice, but totally usable like the enhanced ALG or BCM PNT. I also chopped the front sight for a clear sight picture without being way high.
While I love my mp5, I do think the APC is technically a better, modern weapon system.
Brain picks the APC.
Heart picks the MP5.
