    SBR it then. $200 now and then later get the upper. I can spend your money all day long

    EM, a 9mm can be built with a standard 5.56 lower and upper. Only thing needed is a 9mm bolt, barrel, buffer and mag block and your done. From what I also here the current C Products 9mm mags work well and are cheap.

    The MP5 is a great gun don't get me wrong, parts mags and especially maintenance go in favor of the AR, that is also a fact.
    Easier and cheaper women are better. Guns? No so much

    Poor boy doesn't know what he wants. As adults it's our responsibility to learn him the ways of the world. Now, let's stop fighting in front of the children and show a united front!

    The magazines for the MP5 type guns can be ridiculously high when you can find them.Genuine H&K mags are even more so.
