THE FNG Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Hi all, I was looking at the Classic Army UMP for my first AEG once my UKARA application is completed. I like this AEG as the area I will be using it in will be a smaller outfield site; not quite CQB but I won't be using it to pick off targets at greater ranges. It has an advertised FPS of around 350-360, some downgrading may be required. Also, I'm not among the bigger of people; 5'8, so the size of the gun is desirable too. I've ran around with a Dragunov on my back whilst wielding a CYMA MP5 and I enjoyed having the option of switching from short/medium range to long range. The MP5 and UMP have similar specifications, or at least so I have read. I spent a lot of my time using the MP5 over the Sniper as the site is more about close up combat rather than longer ranges, so I have decided on taking a smaller AEG over a larger gun. It also fits in nicely with my price range, as I can't really go over the £180 mark. A little bit of research has suggested that there is a small number of upgrades that I can do in the future if needs be. I was wondering if anybody has one of these and if they could let me know if this would be a good purchase? I hope so as I've really liked this gun since I first saw it in Matrix Reloaded and in media productions since. If I do go ahead with this purchase once my UKARA is sorted next week, I'll be posting an initial review on here with a detailed performance review after. Thanks in advance!

Supporters Rock-climby-Dave Posted March 8, 2013 Supporters Share Posted March 8, 2013 Don't get the classic army UMC, get the G&G UMG. It's what the CA is cloned off and is by far the best UMP on the market. Also, the CA UMC doesn't exist anymore, so good luck finding one The internals on the UMP and MP5 are similar-ish I guess on the real steel, but that is where any similarity ends. The UMP is actually huge. It's got a very long stock on it, with no option to shorten it. Don't get me wrong, I love my UMPs (I've got 2, one is for sale )but they handle unlike anything else.

Gahh now I'm torn haha. I had my heart set on it xD Regarding availability, there is literally one left in a store 15 minutes away in the car from me...literally one left hah! I can't seem to find the G&G anywhere in stock either. :/ maybe i'm blind and missing the obvious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE FNG Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 After some consideration, I'm still not too sure what to do. I do like the G&G UMG, however it's out of my price range :/ The CA UMC is £120 brand new from a shop near to me. I really like it but I don't want to go against the advice of pro-airsofters :/ Although, I can't get either yet as my UKARA is still being processed at JD-Airsoft in Stafford/Cannock...it's been a week since it was sent :/ Does it usually take this long?
