Not enough space between the lower and the chamber for the mag to sit at the angle it needs to. The whole "make it take Glock mags!" is a cancer in the firearms community....especially when people have no idea what it actually takes. |

AR-AK thing didn't work, PA-10 didn't work, AR-9 with LRBHO didn't work... do we need to see if both HK AND FAL will work??? PSA is learning (the hard way) what CAI learned (also... the hard way). Sub it out to someone who has already demonstrated success. Modding mag wells on WASRs did not go well for CAI. Building FALs did not go well for CAI. When they got their hands on the HK-33 kits from Singapore and Malaysia, they subbed them all out and the builds are very good. All of the C-93 pistols went to Vector, and those are excellent. AR-9 for PSA recently became a success when they teamed with NFA. AR-22 will likely be a success for them in 2018, because they teamed with CMMG. PSA should not want to team with Blackthorne, Black Market Parts, Special Weapons, Bobcat, Tactical Weapons Training (Academy), Top Notch Accessories, Cohaire Arms, Cohaire Ordnance Factory, Omega Arms, Acme Parts, BCH Manufacturing or any Bailey company. If PTR has success, PSA should consider teaming with them. |

If you are merely talking about simple aesthetics, which I suspect you are, then obviously it's not going to look like an MP5 with a straight mag, because the base of the round would be far too low for any bolt to feed. Imagine a mag well more parallel to the front face of the trigger guard, mirroring (shock!) the feed angle of an actual Glock. |

i have a feeling that PSA will surprise a lot of people with this.
My worries are quality, and reliability. those have , have, HAVE to be a home run out of the gate. We've seen sub optimal launches in the KS47 AK47 , and many others, that said, if they nail this out the gate, it will turn many folks opinions fast hopefully, changeing the whole market. someone above said team with PTR. I say have JSE Acquire PTR, and begin a lifelong teamup that way. I'd love to see PSA produce FALs that rival the old SPringfield SAR. With FN so close, maybe having a partnership again with them on this would help? (speculation on my part) Price, for the PSA Mp5 is going to be crucial, but that is yet to be seen. Because of PSA's being the low price leader there is an issue with the customer base willingness and ability to spend 1500-2k for one. I'd hope for half that in price point, but thats me dreaming. I also dont know when they will have these available for the public, but unless they sponsor me, its gonna be a while for me cause of medical bills sadly. :( These should in NO way take any mag other than MP5 mags. to think otherwise is sacrilege. |

I've seen your deals for the phosphate bolt and D-60 drum, could you change it up and do a NiB bolt and D-60 drum? I'd be all over that

another product suggestion, which isnt really a material product, but more of a customer service related product is :

Delayed blowback has many advantages over Blowback. CMMG is making a radial delayed upper, but it is pretty dependent on using their Guard lower unless you want to make some modifications. It looks like you can make them work with a Glock mag AR lower with minor modifications. Making them work with Colt mags may be possible, but I haven't seen anything definite yet. As cool as the PSA Mp5 is (I'd probably buy one) If they'd come out with a delayed blowback that would be as simple as push two pins on your existing 9mm AR lower, I think it'd sell like hotcakes. |
