Made by a company called Umarex, and they make the only authorized/branded ones I know of, so not much choice or anything in particular to watch out for.
Fun for a plastic bodied, dedicated 22 plinker that sorta looks cool. Nothing special about them. |

I can tell you first hand they are tons of fun. It is Umarex brand but made by Walther and licensed by H&K. Much better quality than the GSG brand.

Hmm, maybe the GSG were the plastic ones I'm remembering, then.

Great gun as long as you can source enough ammo to shoot it. It's really fun to shoot and shoot fast so you will burn through a brick in no time. Also uber reliable, I've shot more then 6k rounds of the cheapest Walmart/Cabelas 22 ammo I can find and have only had a couple of problems.

I also own the Walther version. It is fucking awesome.
Feels like the real deal. I threw a cheap reddot on it and it's good to go. If you want to mount anything on it, but one of these: https://www.hkparts.net/shop/pc/HK-MP5-22-Scope-Mount-HK-Walther-Umarex-342p2389.htm ETA:

Umarex Manufacturs them with the Walther/H&K stamp of approval. I just sold my MP5-SD, I didn't like how I couldn't thread my suppressor on it and when I shouldered the stock, I couldn't use earmuffs (they got in the way).
I sold mine for $600 with extra mags and actually made a profit off of it and the guy who has it now loves it. If you don't have a suppressor / dont want to use a suppressor on it, definitely buy one. And go with the H&K, not GSG. |

I picked up one of the Walther ones a few months ago. They are a lot of fun to shoot and my kid loves shooting it as well. Lots of aftermarket stuff to slap on. I got rid of the collapsible stock and went with the fixed.

They are fun little rifles and good quality. |

The HK/Umarex/Walther are solid reliable fun guns.

Yes, I meant to type that twice, you will burn through them fast. It is a lot more accurate than I was expecting and a ton of fun. The fixed stock doesn't look as cool but it's a bit longer and more comfortable and easier to shoot- supposedly they've been hard to find lately though. I'll second the HK scope mount as opposed to the airsoft parts after I had two cheap cast metal airsoft mounts break. A PA micro style red dot works great. Some friends and I actually set up some small scale targets and run "tactical .22" courses of fire on occasion using whatever "tactical" .22s you have. I usually use my HK and my Kimber Pro-Cary with the Kimber .22 upper. Lots of fun for (not so) cheap (anymore). |

Anybody know where you can find the fixed stock ?
I looked all over place. Does a regular MP 5 stock fit? I SBR'd mine, put the H&K light on it and it is sweet. Thanks |

Thank you
I sent emails to both Ulmerx and Walther and the best I can get out of customer service is discontinued. I asked why and they didn't have a reason. |
