Which Gun Would You Take?

Gunnut17 · July 20, 2012, 05:42 PM

All things considered,(Weight, RPM, cartridge, etc.)if you were a soldier, and you had to bring one of these SMGs/PDWs with you on a special operation, What would it be?

-FN P90
-HK MP7
-HK MP5
-BT MP9(Either in 9mm or 6.5X25mm)

Willie Lowman · July 20, 2012, 09:40 PM

I have shot the P90s. It seemed like a nice gun. Never laid eyes on the full auto version.

The B&T and the MP7 I have seen but never handled or fired.

I have shot MP5s a bit. I'll go with the MP5.

David Hineline · July 20, 2012, 10:10 PM

If no armorer service is available, I am carrying an UZI SMG

Nine the Ranger · July 30, 2012, 06:04 AM

Doesn't the P90 and MP7 fire the 5.7FN cartridge?

Gunnut17 · July 30, 2012, 09:39 AM

No, the MP7 fires the 4.6X30 HK.

Nine the Ranger · July 30, 2012, 10:39 AM

Ah, okay.

Thank you Gunnut.

gyvel · July 30, 2012, 10:52 AM

Other: Sterling 9mm.

Jack_Bauer24 · July 30, 2012, 11:08 AM

Another great option would be the Hk UMP for weight savings.

This.

How could I have forgotten about the good ole Uzi?

testuser · July 31, 2012, 05:40 PM

As weird as it might sound, the Uzi either a full size or mini. It's a very space eifficient and quite a reliable design.

I finally had the chance to handle a MP5 SMG a while back...NOTHING about it fits me. Even one with extended controls was uncomfortable. It seems liked selector is just too short. It's also needlessly complicated and a pain clean.

As far as 5.7 or 4.6 and body armor...the threat is either from a developing country (no armor) or will be wearing armor with ceramic inserts that will easily stop either round. I'll take a rifle in the later scenerio and stick with the 9mm in the former.

**4V50 Gary** · August 1, 2012, 06:24 AM

H&K MP 5 in 40 S&W.

It's the gun I'm most familiar with.

cannonfire · August 1, 2012, 08:21 AM

Kriss Vector or HK UMP

sigcurious · August 2, 2012, 03:32 AM

p90 for no good reason other than I like the design, and the ps90 was a hoot to shoot.

Stressfire · August 2, 2012, 09:46 AM

I would choose the Uzi as well - tough call though as the MP5 would be darn close to a tie for me

akguy1985 · August 14, 2012, 07:13 AM

the MP5 hands down. One gun on my bucket list i'll probably never own. but hey i can dream.

evilleprichaun · August 14, 2012, 02:08 PM

definitly the p-90 im in love with 5.7x28 and i love how it functions. but the mp5 is a close second

hulley · August 16, 2012, 04:25 PM

P90 for me, mainly because I love my FiveseveN sooooo much!

Achilles11B · September 9, 2012, 07:53 PM

It makes me sad that the "H&K Slap" is so anti-southpaw, otherwise I'd be all over the MP5. The PS90 is fun to shoot, so that would be my choice. I haven't shot an Uzi, so I can't say one way or the other what they're like.

RyeDaddy · September 12, 2012, 12:17 AM

I voted for something else. If it's pistol caliber SMG's on the menu I'd go with the HK UMP.

Gunnut17 · September 13, 2012, 12:33 AM

I meant to put in the UMP and Kriss Vector, but I was half asleep when I put this up.

Pilot · September 13, 2012, 12:39 AM

MP-40

TheSILENTtype · September 13, 2012, 12:44 AM

Having been in this situation :

EDIT mistyped :

HK UMP

Pistolgripshotty · September 22, 2012, 09:10 AM

MP5A4 to be exact.

The Comedian · October 29, 2012, 12:02 AM

I'd take an MP-5k, I shot one at Scottsdale gun club, and I think i'm in love.

SPEMack618 · October 29, 2012, 12:30 AM

None of the above. If I'm going on a special mission, I want something other than a PDW.

I'll stick with my M-4A1, or if I'm feeling really sporty, and HK-416 with a 14.5 inch barrel shooting ballistic tips.
