hello from CT

[HAVOC]

I went to a .22LR open shoot last week. I had to borrow somebody's rifle because I don't own one. I'm looking at getting one in the next couple weeks. Either the S&W M&P 15-22 or the H&K MP5 A5 .22 LR.

Being from Connecticut, I'd like to know if the MP5 is available.

The weapon I used (M&P 15-22) was real fun to shoot and the ammo is dirt cheap.

I have the S&W and the MP5, the both are a lot of fun to shoot.  The two main differences are the sights and the weight (the MP5 is heavier than the M&P).  My MP 5 is the SD model.

Hi Havoc, Im in CT as well. We are allowed to have the GSG-5, GSG 522 so I see no reason the HK wouldnt also be available. I just havent looked for it.

Welcome to T22 HAVOC.

Both rifles are good choices. Don't know about CT legalities.

Let us know what you decide on.

I know that in CT the stock needs to be pinned (non-adjustable). With that, I think the only way I'm getting a MP5 is to buy the solid stock version. I'll hit a couple gun stores this week and see what I could find out.

Ahh I missed this was the telescopic stock model

Welcome!

Welcome from Indiana brother.

Just came home from the LGS with my S&W M&P 15-22. I didn't see the MP5-22 in stock and didn't ask. When I head up there again (to get mags) I'll ask.
