    Default Velocity Arms VMAC-9

    So gun bug has been nibbling on me again. I come across the VMAC-9 machine pistol and the VMAC-45. Started looking for what the reviews are saying and all I am finding is the same paragraph in the press release.


    Any one handle any of these? Good? Bad? Looking at the 9 as 45 is way too rich for my blood currently.


    Thanks,
    Rob

    Outside of 'looking' cool. What functionable difference is there between this and a Glock 17/34 with a 33rd magazine in it?

    Aside from REALLY bad ergonomics, a crappy trigger, and an extra 3lbs?

    Not hatin' but seriously wondering why the attraction. After playing with an old Cobray many times I can say the novelty wears off VERY quickly. So much so, well, I guess that's why I'm left wondering why anyone would want one that isn't full auto?

    Yeah. I have a buddy that had one. We would just blast 4 or 5 mags out of it and be done. It really serves no other purpose. Hey, if you can afford it just for kicks go for it. Not for me though. I'd sooner buy a GSG pistol or carbine so at least I wouldn't be cranking through 9mm two boxes a minute.

    Ok,
    So now that I have heard opinions on why so and so wouldn't buy it.


    I re-ask my same question and the original point of the thread.

    Any one have any hands on or credible review information on this build of machine pistol? I am looking to see if its of decent build quality or just disposable.


    Thanks,

    Rob

    It's not a machine pistol.

    I doubt you will find many that have fired one in this brand.

    Maybe do a google on "Velocity arms review"
