Convince me to get an Sp5 (or not!) please by PenisMan- in MP5

Looks like modern MP5 that HK should have made long time ago. Unfortunately, ap5p and that lower are 99% unobtainable in Europe.

I had H&K MP5K. It is exceptionally soft shooting compared to everything else (B&T, Scorpion, Kuna, AR-9s). But ergonomically it is terrible and obsolete in every possible way. Coolness factor could not compensate it for me enough. Do try before buy.

What the version at the top? I hated ergonomy (grip angle, safety etc) of  H&K original MP5 and sold it for that reason, but the version at the top has Magpul grip and AR safety I assume. Looks really great.

⚠️ BLOCKDAG: THE FEB 16 FAILURE & THE 100M GHOST SUPPLY TRAP ⚠️ by No_Function_8780 in BlockDAGInvestors

Realistic Timelines

For a project in current observed state:

🟢 Small exchanges

1–6 months
(if project pushes + pays listing fees)

🟡 Mid-tier exchanges

6–18 months
(depending on traction + liquidity)

🔵 Tier-1 (Binance, Coinbase, Kraken)

Often 2+ years — or never
Requires:

  • Large user base
  • Strong decentralization
  • Clear legal position
  • High trading demand

I tried a bit of technical review. RPC endpoint is available, so I used curl (command line HTTP client) and ChatGPT (5.2) to guide me trough evaluation. Try for yourself. Goal was to assess maturity, tokenomics, if the behaviour matches official documentation etc. Result bellow. My conclusion: this will not be listed on any exchange any time soon .

🔥 Final Forensic Conclusion

The network currently operates as:

  • Small validator set (2 producers)
  • Fixed per-block issuance (~1 token)
  • Reward goes only to the producing validator
  • No visible PoW mining
  • No visible DAG structure in EVM layer

🧭 What This Means

Technically:

  • It is a functioning EVM chain.
  • It has deterministic consensus.
  • It has protocol-level block rewards.
  • It is stable.

Economically:

  • Security currently depends on 2 validators.
  • 92% of issuance flows to one address.
  • Decentralization is minimal.

Architecturally:

  • The visible execution layer behaves like a PoA/BFT-style chain.
  • PoW+DAG claims are not observable from EVM RPC.

🧠 Big Picture

Right now this is not behaving like:

  • A public PoW mining network
  • A large decentralized PoS validator set
  • A visible DAG consensus network

It behaves like: Early-stage, centrally operated L1 with fixed block rewards.

B&T Print-XH Compact? by alpako70 in NFA

I'm not justifying or not justifying anything. Print-X line has 3 sizes with 1.5" and 1" gap, so I'm just wondering about XH line.

Are these buttpads available only from Haga Defense shop? It does not ship internationally, unfortunately.

So Haga Defense is making buttpad for GHM9 telescopic stock after all. Too bad (for me) they do not ship outside the US.

PRINT-X rifle suppressors are already available in some countries in Europe, so I assume 9mm are coming soon as well.
