Tm Mp5 NGRS on Horizon?

Cyberlawyer said:
My guess is it’s going to be a NGRS MP5. As much as I would love a GBBR version it would represent a significant step forward in their GBBR release schedule.

My thoughts exactly. They have been teasing their AKM GBBR for a long time.  A NGRS MP5 line has a lot of possible models.  

 
I actually think it may be a GBBR, I imagine it wouldnt take much to scale the TM MP7 system to MP5 and go from there.

Not really You would need a completely different bolt assembly and trigger group.

 I was more referring to the underlying system being able to be modified which is what I imagine they have done with the ZET system on the MWS for the AKM.

 
So the title of the thread is wrong...?

Its not a GBBR but EBB

So, anyone getting more details from this?

From observation/listening all I got was

  • Custom recoil gearbox with "M system" trigger (mosfet & fire control) - Safe, semi, 3rd burst, full auto fire group
  • Not sure on magazine compatibility but there is a new mag - there was a fair amount of talk on this section so maybe it's backwards compatible but doesn't support all the features or maybe adapter needed.
  • Upper receiver? Aluminium?
  • Need to use the cocking handle/HK slap to reload on empty mags
  • Hop unit probably under ejection port (couldn't see if it was rotary or not)
  • Front handguard not all creaky (not sure if compatible with RS parts)
  • Ejection port reciprocates during firing.


Almost certainly to be followed later with other variants...

TM tweeted than they have decided a release date or price for this but they will hope to release it this summer and they will make another announcement when this is decided.

I can see this being around the £500 - £550 mark there is a lot of firsts for TM with this gun (First NGRS with 3rnd burst and a Mosfet)

Whatever the price is I will be getting it, I've been waiting for a decent EBB MP5 for a while now

Yeah.  That's TM releases for the next few years sorted.  A2, A3, A4, 10/40 if they're feeling funky.  K, PDW, SD2, SD3, SD4, SD5, SD6.  They can get a lot of mileage out of the MP5. 

 
The TM promo video was, quite frankly, ridiculous. Dudes on Snowmobiles, shooting BB's at each other. Gotta love Japanese weirdness.

The gun itself - it does tickle my interest, but I'll hold off until an SD variant is produced. As @hitmanNo2says, there's a lot of mileage in the MP5 platform.

But I would give my left testicle for a NGRS AR-18 though.
