The ONLY reason is for compatibility between a Glock pistol and the PCC.
Will tomorrow bring another ride on the Century AP5 rollercoaster. WoW. The owners who purchased when these were released have been hosed. Marketing has done a great job with not one but two significant price drops. Just imagine the shop that purchased a pile of these for over 2K wholesale - each. Who is going to buy at or around that price. CAI pulled the rug out from under your feet. Zenith must be all smiles.
Time to buy at fire-sale prices.
The latest POF model looks cosmetically much better. Only gripe (it's minor) is that they dropped the production year on the top of the receiver. The finish actually looks good. The retro steel lower is a plus.

I think Zenith is in a world of hurt too. They did an excellent job on a repair for me, so I think they're quite capable. However, $2k for an MP5 clone from a company with no record of manufacturing them is going to be a hard sell.
Atlantic is a fine company to do business with, but I do wish that the POF pistols were available elsewhere. Competition is always better.
I don’t care to give the Pakis or Turks any of my money. I’ll stick with German HK.
SLG Defense 07/02 FFL/SOT
I've been trying to give HK my money for 5 damn years. But I'm not gonna pay retail when I'm also paying the costs to maintain a FFL and SOT.
I'd like to get a POF for a buddy of mine who simply can't afford a HK, but FEDARM doesn't seem to have any in stock and I'm not gonna pay the mark up at Atlantic. The first batch of POFs were available the year I moved so I literally had all my money tied up in the move and couldn't responsibly buy anything.
I got my MKE's years ago when AmChar imported the second batch but with all the QC complaints I've heard since then, especially with Century now being the importer that is also a hard pass.
Guess I'm just glad to have what I have.

Most buyers have been very happy with the Turkish MKE AP5's lately. The few that had an issue report quick, positive resolution.
Mine works great. Very accurate.

My Zenith has been problem free and I’ve run dog shite ammo through it. Zero problems.
