Re: Masterpiece Arms MAC-10 5.7x28mm
I owned an MPA45 for a year... shot it once, got rid of it. It was like prying a brick from the side of my house and making it pull double-duty as something that shot bullets.
Heavy, obtuse, clumsy, cheap, unreliable... all words I'd use to describe a MAC10 clone.
However, if the 5.7 MPA in the picture was halfway reliable, and about half the weight of the .45 version, it would be a fun range toy.

I still have a Cobray Mac-11 variant. It is a POS, but it was a gift and I keep it around.

Re: Masterpiece Arms MAC-10 5.7x28mm
Hell yeah! I was going to buy two mpa930 mini macs at the end of the year to be completely tacticool :guns: but this might make my decision harder!

As a shooter who has owned several full auto MAC's including:
MAC 10 - .45
MAC 11 - .380
MAC 11/9
I can tell you that a semi-auto MAC is a PIG! It may look "Tacticool" but that is it! A MAC is a bullet hose in stock configuration.

Re: Masterpiece Arms MAC-10 5.7x28mm
would be interesting to see a rifle version...
but maybe the 8" barrel will be available.

Re: Masterpiece Arms MAC-10 5.7x28mm
as a semi auto handgun, it would be useless. as an sbr or a rifle, less useless.
Re: Masterpiece Arms MAC-10 5.7x28mm
I must say I am surprised by the overwhelmingly negative response to this thread. The bottom line is that another platform has picked up the round we all love. I have not shot an mpa product but I have heard they are fun little guns. Barring any function issues, it is what it is. To me, having two mpa mini 9s represents a childhood "dream" that I can actually attain without spending multiple thousands of dollars on the real deal full auto sub guns.
But back to the gun posted in this thread. If some tacticool kids stumble upon the mpa offering and take any interest in the 5.7x28 round, I think its a good thing. As cliche as it is, the kids are the future of the sport and the political aspect of the industry. I for one thank god for any exposure the FsN gets whether it be through video games, tv or new tacticool toys. All it will do is help insure that the FsN is around for years to come and, to me, that is more important than whether or not this gun utilizes the full potential of the round or fills any specific operational role.
Just my two cents.

Re: Masterpiece Arms MAC-10 5.7x28mm
We are also happy that another manufacturer has made a decision to invest in the 5.7x28 platform. Hope the firearm is reliable. But even if it's not, at least a manufacturer believes in the round. And maybe this will continue the ripple resulting in more manufacturers investing in this platform.
Re: Masterpiece Arms MAC-10 5.7x28mm
dont get me wrong, i like that someone else is picking up the round and using fsn mags. i just dont like the platform as a pistol. after owning a gsg-5pk, id never get an enormous "handgun" copy of a subgun. just my opinion

On the flip side, I work with kids and know how they work. Many kids I see outside of work, if they are our future, I pray they never get their hands on a firearm.
Another observation; I highly doubt that even if kids and tacticool games and toys don't promote the FsN that it will be somehow banned or stopped from being mfg by FN. Even without much publicity, many people own FsN's. The reason why you don't see them as often as Glocks etc. is because they are sittin in people's safes.
I know this for fact as almost everyone here in Texas that I know has a FsN never shoots it and it sits in their safes. Some have 2 or 3.

Re: Masterpiece Arms MAC-10 5.7x28mm
Whether we like them or not ( I actually tend not to) they are our future :p ! But I completely agree that the prospect of some of the kids I know having a bb gun let alone a FsN is a scary thought. Damn kids ain't taught the way I was. Good to know about the popularity of the FsN in Texas though!blueorison wrote:

Re: Masterpiece Arms MAC-10 5.7x28mm
Why would this be? Why would so many people own them but not shoot them? Particularly since the price of ammo has come down?blueorison wrote: almost everyone here in Texas that I know has a FsN never shoots it and it sits in their safes. Some have 2 or 3.
Re: Masterpiece Arms MAC-10 5.7x28mm
maybe because 9mm ammo is half the price?
Re: Masterpiece Arms MAC-10 5.7x28mm
If someone has two or three FsN in their safe, they aren't worried about the price difference between 5.7 and 9mm ammo.
Re: Masterpiece Arms MAC-10 5.7x28mm
it must be the reloader part of me that makes me cheap. i am waiting on my m11 to transfer and i have already shot the 22 conversion much more than the 9mm and the m11 cost more than 3 FsNs

I usually email their CS about it so they can change it.
The latest one was "telfon" coating, from a big name in the industry.

Re: Masterpiece Arms MAC-10 5.7x28mm
I have two FsN's and typically only take one to the range. Mainly this is because I know most guns have a "break-in" that loosens up the action and changes the feel of it. With two I can monitor the difference over time.
I am also on EA's accurizing list (the wait is killing me :wall: ) and can't wait to get the work done so I can compare the before and after.
Typically I only like to own one of any firearm, but a friend and I decided to buy them together and I ended up inheriting it a few years later.

I still spell using British English, my native English language.
Being a migrant, I still stick some colour into my language.
Under Armour is spelled correctly, to me, also.
if you go through the forum, every time I type colour it's with a "u". But if it really bothers you, let me know, and I will try to avoid doing so

Back on topic, I think the gun is probably a fun toy. If I ever have a bunch-o-cash burning a hole in my pocket, and I already own a suppressor for each and every firearm I have and I have previously bought my Cheytac Intervention System... then I would definitely purchase a MAC-10 in 5.7x28!

Re: Masterpiece Arms MAC-10 5.7x28mm
Even if you got the MP7, you're stuck with the inferior 4.6x30 round thats unobtainium... and I dont think HK makes one in semi-auto. I'd rather FN made a 5.7x28 machine pistol that took 20rd FSN mags flush fitting, and 35rd mags that stuck out an inch or so.
Re: Masterpiece Arms MAC-10 5.7x28mm
I wouldn't call the 4.6x30mm inferior. It's just even more reliant on velocity for it's wounding mechanism than the 5.7mm is.
The USN SEALs are using MP7's and from the rumors one hears, they like them quite a lot.

MASTERPIECE ARMS MAKES A MAC-10 version in 5.7x28. I've
Seen the 9mm version in action and I (who was not impressed with ANY MAC-10)
Was taken by surprise, it was accurate, and it fired every round ( something mine wouldn't do) any way the idea is intriguing the design and the weight auoght to make it fun and at $600 would make it most cost effective in the bunch did I mention it's a side -cocker with a picayinny rail on top, even more fun! If they do it right.

Local gun shop had one for 495. Glad to see more manufacturers are chambering new firearms in this caliber. Maybe ammo will become more affordable.

A 57' Mac-10!!!???
Yes it's true, a Mac -10 that doesn't suck
I had a chance to test mine out. Needless to say I am damned pleased
with it.
MASTERPIECE ARMS makes Mac-10 clones that ACTUALLY WORK
they handle like fine European sports cars neither of mine Jammed during testing. (I have The .45 too).The 57 is light weight,ergonomic, and points really well. The Mac -10 version is just as accurate as the regular 57' or the PS 90 the trigger is rubberized for comfort and you rattle em off, coupled with a 1 pin take down field strip, side cocking lever and picatinny rail on top leaves lots of room to accessorie. The best part of all........it uses regular FN 57' mags. with an extention
kit you can add 10 more rnds.

Too many times IMO - but of course, that is even quoting it once.
Not that you quote it, but that it needs to be quoted.

Re: Masterpiece Arms MAC-10 5.7x28mm
Buds lists the pistols and carbines on their website.
The carbine is listed at $579 i think. One of the guys on Pafoa.org has the 5.7mm pistol, he said it's very reliable and he likes it a lot, but it is very heavy, as it's all steel construction.
I think he said he paid like $425 for his.
I like the carbine a LOT and plan on getting one, since it will use all my FsN mags, and i have 17 or 18 of them.

Re: Masterpiece Arms MAC-10 5.7x28mm
I would actually buy one of those carbines in a heartbeat! The pistol I would get if it was a huge discount...
Re: Masterpiece Arms MAC-10 5.7x28mm
saw the pistol today at a gunshop i frequent. Its interesting but i was surprised at the weight of it. I couldnt see shooting for extended periods of time with it comfortably. However considering its half the price of an FN it did make it somewhat attractive. But i have to say the carbine would be a must have for me!
Re: Masterpiece Arms MAC-10 5.7x28mm
I want the carbine, planning on getting one in the next couple weeks. I've seen videos, and the recoil looks like it's non existent.

I called masterpiece arms a few weeks ago, and they said they are in production. Bud's lists them on their website, but says out of stock.

Re: Masterpiece Arms MAC-10 5.7x28mm
Mine likes the Pro Mags but not the FN factory mags for some reason. The FN mags don't want to insert. I've always considered Pro Mags as junk compared to the FN mags so there is a place for them I guess.
Re: Masterpiece Arms MAC-10 5.7x28mm
That's funny, because the two videos posted here, say otherwise. The pistol variant video never made it through a full mag, and the carbine vid, though its first shooting without scope seemed to push all rounds through, the second shooting w/scope did not.Valorius wrote:Yes, the MPA guns use FsN mags. 20 or 30rd.

But hey, who am I to talk, my 5.7 is still a paper weight (hint -> Jay, should I send it in?)
