Ok so, The kangnam Mp5K. Yes its a springer and yes it only cost me about �45. But this doesnt mean its a crappy gun.For the price its fairly well made and pretty Durable. The way i use it, im surprised it lasted me a week.
Made mainly from ABS plastic, it is well built and take a licking but keeps on kicking. Although i did break one of the screws a few days after i got it, its still in one piece and working. So whats it like to be on the recieving end? Well, it doesnt pack the same power as some of Maruis springers do (In fact, Dan's springer pistols probably has the same output as it.) But if you're fighting wearing just a Tee shirt and jeans (as we frequently do) You WILL feel it. Its not the best gun for sniping, but its range isnt half bad. You'll be able to hit something about 15 meters away, aslong as there are no strong winds around.
While holding the gun, you realise why bodyguards and special forces units like the SAS use them, Small and compact and easy to conceal with the stock folded.
Ive only encountered one problem so far, and thats with the magazine. The small slide on the bottom of the mag is where you have to pour the BB's in, after that you pull down the spring and the BB's are held in the feed and pushed up by the spring follower. However if you put too many BB's in the magazine, they tend to rattle around as you run. It's good to have plenty of backup ammo there, especially since the rate you can fire it at. But the rattle poses problems for stealth. Especially with vigourous movement.
Overall i like the gun. The reason i bought it was.. Well, i didnt have much cash at the time, but i wanted to get in on the action. Therefore, if you're looking for a decent springer but are on a tight budget, i'd reccommend this gun.
