    PTR finallly takes the step off the high dive (I would guess because of the heat from the Turks) into the MP5 pool.

    Least they have a threaded barrel option, unlike the HK SP5K

    But I don't know what makes it several $$ more than a Zenith, which I thought was already up there

    A new model from PTR and in 9mm no less as a MP-5 clone. Guess they looked at the market and bet some development $$$ on a MP5 flat form and bolt and bolt carrier tooling. I have been bugging them for years to build a PTR-93 5.56 weapon but was told they didn't have the flat stamping form and bolt parts to do a 93......huuum maybe next year so I'm going to take out my Vector 93 this week and get some roller locked love in 5.56.

    My buddy handled one at SHOT, mentioned it feels solid & finish is legit. Feel like I just watched an awesome movie trailer for something being released this Thanksgiving, will probably start counting down the days till I can pre-order after Labor Day :popcorn:



    Hopefully, all these guys producing +/- $2000 MP5 clones will get a big dose of reality when PSA releases their PSA5 later this year. Projected to be a sub-$1000 clone.
