compact and very accurate sniper

RE: compact and very accurate sniper
Thankyou for that Hrusai >>> "as for the rest of your arguments your either wrong or just stating the obvious, mostly wrong though."

Ok, I will try one more time - in laymans terms...
The point is - the one in the picture - is as I said - a carbine - due to its barrel length. If you put a full length barrel on it, then yes, it will be classed as a rifle! It is not about what it looks like or what the manufacturer calls it, it is about the barrel length. A carbine is a shortened barrel version of a rifle - just like the one in the picture. I hope that explains it clearly enough Tongue


"TL; sorry dude same length barrel as a full length sniper">>>
This part of the sentence is incorrect...
" bull pup design makes it more compact,">>>
this part of the sentence is incorrect. Sniper rifles now also use bull pup designs. is this phrase straight from the catalogue?
" i can put a 26 inch barrel on that baby and it will have as good if not better accuracy than a full length sniper with the same size barrel,">>>
this part of the sentence is incorrect - 1) a 26 inch barrel is not long enough for a specialist sniper rifle 2) If the barrel was replaced with one the same size as a full length sniper one on a dedicated sniper rifle - then how would that make it more accurate than the sniper rifle?
"but it'll also be a foot shorter " >>>
This sentence is not accurate, as per reasons above for the bull pup design
"although i will admit this one does have a small 16inch barrel on it, but the full size one has a full barrel ">>>
This sentence indicates that the gun shown in the picture is actually fitted with a carbine barrel, thereby in that configuration, classifying it as a carbine and not a sniper rifle - Exactly as I identified originally!
Tongue
It is odd how none of this complete paragraph has any real knowledge behind it. It is very similar to phraseology found in product advertising.


The MP5 is a code designation for the gun. The phrase Machine Pistol 5 does not strictly imply any calibre or effectiveness. The MP5 is available also in .22LR and is produced by a few different manufacturers in this calibre.Tongue

", but .22 calibre and semi auto, thats just defeating the object of an mp5!"

This is also an interesting perception. Just what do you think an MP5 is?? It is a big machine pistol - for close range work that requires burst accuracy at close range or a lot of lead in the air at close range. Unless you are considering that in a prep situation you would be facing armoured opponents, then the .22LR is quite an efficient round. The magazines hold up to 30 rounds I believe and the ammo is lightweight, small and easily carried. It is also cheap and easy to stockpile. A useful round for hunting too and with simple silencer, the noise is v.small. The .22LR has a lot going for it in a survival scenario and is often a hotly debated subject.
