Anyway, this wandered out of a local shop with me last night.. I'm not a modern military kind of guy.. The last NRA High Power match I shot in, I used a 1900 Swedish Mauser, and for CMP matches I'm usually there with my Winchester M1 Carbine.
While I have a AR or two, I'd much rather shoot my Winchester Model 70 Westerner in .223, than the modern stuff..
But last night this followed me out..
I liked the light weight, the pumpkin chuckin' .45ACP, and the fact that it's just plain different looking..
I tossed my Eotech on it last night and plan on sighting it in this afternoon... Results to follow..
Anyway, anyone who has one, please chime in with what you do with it, how you like it, and any other thoughts.
It is the civilian sporterized person of their UMP-45 submachine gun.
It is accurate, reliable and lightweight albeit a bit blocky.
If you ever get a wild hair up your butt you do what my friend did with his and spend another $3,000, buy all the parts and SBR it and get it legally converted to a semi auto UMP with the side folding stock, short barrel and standard lower that will let you use the 25 round magazines.
I have one of theses that I converted back to a UMP I love it and just a FYI theses are made to withstand the pressure of the .45Supper/SMG that can push the 230gr ball at over 1200-1500 fps or 185 gr pills at over 1700 fps out of the 16" bbl I have also seen them rechamberd in .40s&w and 10mm if you ever want to play with it

Or you can do what I did and use the geese gun convention and pay 500.00 including mags (19-30 each insted of 60-100 per mag) to use 30rnd mags HK USC Grease Gun Conversion Kit - HKPARTS.NET
Those in the know respect the capabilities of the Pistol Caliber Carbine.
