Does POF currently make a rifle chambered in 223? I just can't see them paying for the equipment and tooling to gear up for a 33-type rifle just for the American market. I really doubt they'd be able to sell enough to us to make it worth the cost and effort.

I was going to place my order for a POF MP5 pistol this week. Yet, if the quality is still questionable should I wait until next year?

I summited my email twice and have yet received any info....

wtwining , we have a Very long list of people signed up to be notified on the POF , when we get a shipment in we start working down the list in the order that people signed up . If we receive 500 pistols for retail sales and there is 1800 customers signed up we do not notify all 1800 people . At this time we are now expecting more in mid to late Dec but as with any imports this can be unpredictable.

Once the MKE pistols start to arrive in the US we will also be offering that product line and are excited to add them to our product line up !!

Yeah, I can understand not being able to notify everyone on the list, sorry if I came off as an asshole, I just get frustrated waiting.
I'll keep my fingers crossed for Dec. or the MKE pistol's.

Sweet, but what about the HK93 and other type rifles?

Posted: 11/27/2014 3:54:43 PM EDT

[#12]

We believe that the 93 style guns will be offered by our friends importing the MKE line of roller lock guns . There will be no 223 by POF that we are aware of .

Do you know when they will be importing them?

I can't help but wonder what the introduction of the Sig MPX will have on POF sales? That MPX sure looks sweet! The Modularity of multiple calibers puts it into another league as far as overall usefulness.

While I have seen the cz skorpion pass tests in south asia both the cz and the sig do not have the track record of the mp5, while maybe only due to age; ether way the mp5 is proven

CPT-Caveman , sorry we do not have a firm date on the MKE line only know it will be the first half of 2015 .The Importer and staff are a great bunch of people and we will be offering their entire product line once available .

I've placed an order for a new Scorpion. I'll use it alongside my MP5 because they're different guns. The MP5 is iconic and nothing can ever truly replace it for people who love the MP5 but that doesn't mean things can't stand alongside it.

Posted: 11/30/2014 3:27:44 PM EDT

[#18]

So what was the price on the Skorpion and who is taking orders ?

Posted: 11/30/2014 8:00:16 PM EDT

[#19]

Distributors are listing the cz at 895 msrp dealer is less of course, its great gun but make no mistake the roller lock mp5 has real advantages

The $1k number was tossed out there based on what I've seen the clones go for.

Sure, I'd rather it be lower. I'd like to own one. I just can't bring myself to pay $1500 for a stamped sheet metal 9mm pistol clone.

View Quote

Right now the POF "clone" guns are selling out every shipment within hours, or at most a day, at the $1500 price point. There is no reason to reduce the price point.

Expect the same with MKE, unfortunately. The market is happy with $1500 HK clone pistols, built on HK contract tooling, with the "proper" flapper magazine releases.

Point being, you're going to be waiting a long time for that 1k price point, you may want to look into the CZ Scorpion pistol which is below 1k MSRP, with $20 magazines direct from CZ.

Heck, the CZ could be the gun to force pricing down on the HK clones.

POFs aren't clones and they''re the closest thing to a real MP5 we're ever likely to get, short of pre-86 NFA $HK,000 imports.

I'd really like to see a G41 clone. I think it would sell fairly well, because in that it uses AR mags, you get around the problem of available mags that the hk93/33 clones have. Variety is a wonderful thing, and I really hope we continue to see more options available. ARs are cool, but I like more flavors than just vanilla.

I spoke to Zenith/MKE about that, and they told me that it was not something they were planning on in the short term, but, long term it was.

Moore Advanced Dymanics makes an HK33 style rifle that accepts AR mags.

Are your AA MP5 models staying in stock or is the same problem/wait as the POF MP5s?

The Atlantic Arms guns are produced on a monthly basis however a good portion of the production goes to Gun range and Law Enforcement sales. We are sold out at this time but do expect more to be finished in approx 3 weeks . If you are looking for a specific model feel free to email us directly to get a more firm timeline .
