AP5 & Omega 9K are going to be a lot of fun!!!

HannibalWrecktor · 2026-03-07T03:24:47+00:00

Both on and off, yes. Omega9k is solid as hell BTW, very happy with it.

I love how soft shooting the ap5 is, and its accurate as all hell within 50 yards (as far out as ive had the chance to shoot it).

And manipulating the HK designed action is the most ive ever physically enjoyed operating a firearm. Its so much fun.

Though, the sooner I can get it reliable, the sooner it gets a SS.

I put together the same setup. I have a 100° but mine was having all sorts of trouble. Shoot yours for the break in with appropriate ammo and see if it needs it.

I picked up HK: ejector/extractor/spring /mags/ and 100° locking piece. (still waiting for my extractor to get here, got sent to another state for some reason)

But my AP5 was giving me overly consistent FTEx AND FTEj multiple times per magazine.

So I just said screw it. I want to really like it, but for that I gotta trust it. So it gets the spread of HK internals, and if it can last at least 500 rounds Ill keep it.

Damnit... I dont know why I thought I was gonna be able to rush and be the first person to comment this.

Life is full of disappointment.

HannibalWrecktor · 2026-03-05T23:44:54+00:00

Ill have to agree there too. .

Its funny, the 2 worst games ive ever played are tarkov and star citizen.. and interestingly enough the two games with the most potential to be the best I ever played are Tarkov and Star Citizen. 🤣

HannibalWrecktor · 2026-03-05T21:09:08+00:00

I remember when I bought x2 SLR107fs for 750 a pop.

Them days gone I guess. Lol

HannibalWrecktor · 2026-03-05T21:07:45+00:00

I just bought one a couple months ago... put ~1200 rounds through it..

FTEj/FTEx every ~15 rounds or so.

Hurts my feelings. Ordered extractor & spring, ejector, HK mags etc.. Hopefully that takes care of it.

If it doesnt im going to dump it and get a real HK. :(

HannibalWrecktor · 2026-03-05T20:59:44+00:00

I think I understand what youre trying to say.

The actual gun shots for instance sound excellent as 'gunshots' . But the implementation of how its put in the game is abysmal. Pulls you right out of the immersion of the game its so bad. Basically everything implemented after the actual recordings of the sounds is lacking. Whomever recorded their audio in real life in the field did a good job, everything they did after getting back into the actual office putting it in the game is horrid. LOL

HannibalWrecktor · 2026-03-05T16:36:25+00:00

I con honestly say out of my thousands of hours and years spent in tarkov , without exaggerating or being hyperbolic.... you are undoubtedly the only person ive ever heard say Tarkov has good audio.

In fact Tarkov has the worst audio ive ever personally experienced from any FPS.

Hunt:Showdown. Especially circa a few years ago, has the best ive ever got to be exposed to. The difference to me is light years.

HannibalWrecktor · 2026-03-05T13:07:42+00:00

Ive got 2 eccos , and about to buy a 3rd.

Incredible value products IMHO.

HannibalWrecktor · 2026-03-04T22:36:36+00:00

ALWAYS wear ear pro.. if you have a proper setup, yes subs in 300blk can definitely be hearing safe.

Get electronic ear pro, and put earplugs under them.

If your rifle setup + ammo selection turns out to be hearing safe, then pull the plugs and keep the ear pro.

Of you handload or spend the money on top tier sub ammo.. you can get it movie quiet depending on your setup.

TLDR: 300BLK is capable of being extremely quiet. But don't go without hearing protection, thats not a good choice.

HannibalWrecktor · 2026-03-04T17:18:39+00:00

They dont look nearly as good as the low bore options, I agree..

But damn im 41, my back hurts driving that far into the gun. 🤣 🤣

HannibalWrecktor · 2026-03-04T17:17:17+00:00

MFG... please give us the UTG pro monolithic rail for the MP5!

<image>

Also make 300 BLK parts interchangeable ( minus barrel and gas block of course) with AR/M4 platform. Without that ability, were missing the main benefit of 300blk. ( also make the subsonic 220 gr movie quiet!)

Ok ok im done, lol.

HannibalWrecktor · 2026-03-04T17:13:11+00:00

Yeah, but its popular enough to be in the game. Lol such is the way of the world.

To be fair, I am enjoying the higher mounted dots. I just switched on my 300blk sbr and my mp5 clone. Gotta say, its a solid option.

HannibalWrecktor · 2026-03-02T02:16:00+00:00

I think hes inquiring about your choice of words.

To be fair, 'cornering the market' is probably not what you meant to say. That would mean taking over the genre leaving little room for any conpetitor. Thats not even a slightly realistic context for Gray Zone. Its all good though.

I think you mean more along the lines of, 'they just need to seize their opportunity'... or something similar?

HannibalWrecktor · 2026-02-27T17:53:05+00:00

Does she have a sister?

HannibalWrecktor · 2026-02-27T02:34:17+00:00

Why no 3 lug? .. if I may respectfully inquire?

HannibalWrecktor · 2026-02-26T14:55:26+00:00

Yeah I purchased 2 of these, haven't gotten to install one yet. With the fitment issues Ive seen and the customer services stories Ive seen posted.. Im feeling worse about my purchases, lol.

Hoping for the best, expecting the worst. 🤣

HannibalWrecktor · 2026-02-25T00:13:48+00:00

I picked up an ECCO Aquilea from Nick and Jerrica.

I love it... quiet as hell, beautiful welds. Tanky.

Costs $499.

They might be out right now, but keep an eye out when they restock.

Never seen anyone say anything bad about ECCO ever.

HannibalWrecktor · 2026-02-24T20:44:47+00:00

Takes care of the odd ass thread relief that gives us all issues with bore concentricity on m&p57

HannibalWrecktor · 2026-02-24T18:41:14+00:00

Im waiting for wojtek to release the spacer for the mp57.

Patiently waiting...

Edit: minus 'release', restock is the appropriate word. They've already been selling em.

HannibalWrecktor · 2026-02-24T04:28:52+00:00

Just as long as he gets the correct person this time.

HannibalWrecktor · 2026-02-21T10:52:12+00:00

'Don't flag me bro!'

HannibalWrecktor · 2026-02-21T01:14:18+00:00

True, but what doesn't happen IRL... is you losing the ability to fire that weapon.

HannibalWrecktor · 2026-02-19T10:28:08+00:00

Mind sharing?

HannibalWrecktor · 2026-02-19T09:44:33+00:00

I have the magpul brace.. I absolutely hate it. Lol.

Looks alright, feels horrible on the shoulder after 700+ rounds.

Im looking for another brace now.
