[Handgun] POF-5 MP5 clone $1075

monoch1@reddit

What’s the word on these? Only heard about terrible pint jobs but idk anything else.

[-]

SuppliesSolutionsLLC@reddit (OP)

Mid finish, reliable function. I own both the AP5 and the POF, and I had to replace most of the AP5 internals to get it to work

[-]

mansgottaeat64@reddit

I've never heard of someone having to replace the internals to make the Ap5 work? I've owned 4 different models

[-]

PapaNoffDeez@reddit

What? Almost everyone has to immediately replace the ejector lever, the extractor spring, etc.

I'm not even who you asked, but I had to get +3 rollers too.

[-]

mansgottaeat64@reddit

Interesting thanks for the information, ive seriously never heard of this, have loved all mine, would totally recommend a ap5 to anyone

[-]

PapaNoffDeez@reddit

Oh and AP5s ship with 120 degree locking pieces so you'll probably want to swap that out too.

It's all super easy stuff and everyone should know how their firearm works, so having to do some very minor things at the beginning.

I'd recommend them still, too. Spending $200 in parts hardly erases the $2k in savings from buying HK and yes, not every single MKE has issues out of the box but there is luck involved and issues are common. Cheap and easy to fix but the mp5 sub is littered with people having problems with MKEs. MACs are definitely worse off

120 degree?? I haven't had any issues with mine but now I'm debating throwing a 90 (if I can ever find one) in

[-]

Mahlegos@reddit

Active safety designs have 90° RCMs in stock.

[-]

Unfortunate_Blowjobs@reddit

I actually own one of these.

Paint isnt the greatest.

Other than that, no issue. I have at-least 5k though it.

Just recently replaced the extractor spring as a preventative measure.

[-]

evasive-manuever@reddit

Finish is worse than Century. Older style metal lower trigger housing.

These are good to go if you want a range toy.

[-]

DoubleDogDenzel@reddit

"These are good to go if you want a range toy."

So, basically what every MP5 will be used for.

[-]

corvettee01@reddit

But what if I'm planning on a heist in Nakatomi Plaza?

[-]

LoudChocolate6290@reddit

what are the top 3 mp5 clones at the moment?

[-]

TheSauciestBoss@reddit

After everything I’ve read it’s mostly you’re fine wherever you go but AP5 is best bang for buck

[-]

lokisingularity@reddit

Ive had an full size ap5 a few years now 11/10 would recommend.

[-]

LoudChocolate6290@reddit

you ever seen those on sale anywhere?

[-]

Mahlegos@reddit

Atlantic firearms is the primary source. Every once in awhile I’ve seen them pop up other places like dahlonega, but it’s similar price at best, usually more.

They have gone up in price though. They used to have one called the LT that was the same as the regular fullsize just without the tri-lug and you could get it for less than $900, but they have reportedly been discontinued. The going rate for just the pistol (no extras like a rail, brace, or more mags) is like $1200 now for the fullsize or K/P.

[-]

paint3all@reddit

That's about it. Like any non HK gun, they can have teething issues. General rule of thumb is to replace parts with HK (extractor/ejector/ejector spring) if you have issues.

I'd consider it on par with MKE other than the finish. Besides that it's preference for a metal lower or the polymer lower. The POF actually says MP5 on the top too.

[-]

dr_bund@reddit

Not the best finish but absolutely phenomenal functionally. Made on HK tooling. Great option at $1075

[-]

redditagainsam@reddit

MKE is also made on HK tooling. How those machines have been maintained is anyone’s guess. Same applies to POF too. But both are gtg.

[-]

acdrewz555555@reddit

Ikr I picture the one Pakistani guy who knows how to service them being like 90 years old and worked to the bone. Gotta be hanging on by a thread

[-]

AuthoritariWrongdoer@reddit

I have one that's had well over 2,000 rounds through it. The majority of that being suppressed. It runs great! Doesn't like flat nosed ammunition and the paint is pretty bad. Neither of which are earth shattering. Honestly, the most annoying part was the old Fed arms imports came with a thread protector that was too thick and had to be filed down to use the three lug.

[-]

Medical-Poem-1917@reddit

If I didn't just spend my bonus on an SP9A3G, optics, wml, etc, I'd be all over this

[-]

Odd-Internet-3876@reddit

Is the "reverse stretch" still an available thing from POF ?

[-]

SuppliesSolutionsLLC@reddit (OP)

They still make them, they are not currently being imported; but we’re working on that.

A army! Sprite grape!

[-]

SuppliesSolutionsLLC@reddit (OP)

I whisper this to myself every time I place another order for these

[-]

AskMeWhyIFish@reddit

How do you like them? SS compatible like most others?

[-]

SuppliesSolutionsLLC@reddit (OP)

The finish is ok, the gun is reliable, PSR uses these for his frt videos.

[-]

LoudChocolate6290@reddit

whats this mean? asking for a friend of course

Wild_Dingleberries@reddit

it means i'm going to tie you to the radiator and 🍇 you

ahhhhhh....grape! thanks

[-]

Ancient_Paste@reddit

Ok grape 🍇

[-]

Ben_Ulrand@reddit

WOW

[-]

erickgv81@reddit

I ordered from them on Tuesday, I had a few questions and their customer service was top notch. Pistol is arriving to my FFL on Monday. Can't wait!

[-]

chinolagg@reddit

Please bring in some POF reverse stretch 🙏

[-]

TheKingCowboy@reddit

If I buy a Pakistani gun, it better be a damn FA gold plated beretta fresh from Khyber bazaar

[-]

Misfit6423@reddit

Peak Pakistani vibes

[-]

SuppliesSolutionsLLC@reddit (OP)

I’ve got an 08 and an SOT; find me a law letter and I’ll get it for you

[-]

SonnyInAZ@reddit

So are these any good? I thought a steel mp5 would be good but I’ve seen ppl poop on these in particular

[-]

NewbRedditer@reddit

Fwiw i got an ap5 and in about 1k rounds had 1 ftf or fte, i forget which. I just got an ap5p and the magwell and catch are so loose and out of spec i can unlatch the magazine and pull it out by simply pushing the mag forward gently. even with that, about 150 rounds and no failures on the ap5p, but i still am sending it in for warranty (as the mag legit unlatches and drops out if you are resting on something, as odd as that sounds).

[-]

ShepardRTC@reddit

Spend a little more and get a PTR. American made and reliable. Also comes with a pic rail welded on.

[-]

NewbRedditer@reddit

I got ap5 and ap5p and really wish i had a welded rail on both for functionality

[-]

SuppliesSolutionsLLC@reddit (OP)

The finish leaves a lot to be desired but they’re reliable. I went down the MKE/AP5 path like a lot of people and had constant FTEs until I replaced all the internals and used German magazines.

I haven’t had any issues with these so far; I’ve asked for feedback from the hundreds of customers we’ve sold these to and the only thing I see keep popping up is the mediocre finish.

[-]

SonnyInAZ@reddit

Sounds like a good buy for the price

[-]

OccasionallyImmortal@reddit

replaced all the internals

Can you specify what you replaced? Des this include the entire bolt?

[-]

Maleficent_Line_7213@reddit

Legit seller, and great gun. Runs flawlessly. Bought mine from them a few months ago. Hundreds of rounds through mine and it's excellent.

[-]

SuppliesSolutionsLLC@reddit (OP)

Glad to hear it’s working well for you!

[-]

Battle_Intense@reddit

Ones I've seen seem to have mediocre folds in the sheet metal along the top of the receiver to the point I doubt clamp on rails will fit...

However that metal lower is most accurate die hard cosplay.

[-]

throwaway2819234@reddit

If Iran made an MP5 we could have a chain of MP5s connected by borders.

[-]

dr_bund@reddit

They do

[-]

SuppliesSolutionsLLC@reddit (OP)

I’m pleased to report they do make MP5s
