@@dreknows Yes, even NATO said so.

the only problem with the T7 is that the MP7 was designed with the "swarm of angry bees" concept. You're supposed to sling those tiny little bullets in bursts so effectiveness as a SA for personal defense is going to be less. I'd like to see one in 7.5 FK. The cartridge works effectively in an SA configuration [Designed for FK Brno's pistols], so having it in a Semi Auto PDW configuration would be great. That being said, I still would love one of these

@@gixerahrnairthey’re asking about the actual stock, not the tax stamp. A tax stamp is 200, yes. It’s not the NRA lol. It’s the ATF’s (Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco Firearms and Explosives) NFA (National Firearms Act of 1934) branch. The NFA restricts short barrel rifles, short barrel shotguns, suppressors, and “any other weapons,” and the ATF enforces that law. A tax stamp for suppressors, SBRs, and SBSs are 200 but the tax stamp for an AOW is only 5. If you intend to attach a stock, you will need to pay 200 for a form 1 to create an SBR and do paperwork with the ATF. Approval time can be anywhere from a couple days to a year+. It’s just luck of the draw.

HK cant sell a 4.6 pistol/carbine cause the 4.6 cartridge is banned from civilian use in Germany. 4.6 is not considered a "sporting" cartridge cause something something world peace bs and something something ww2 (98 mausers being the most popular rifle over here btw followed by the ar15). If it cant be used for sporting you cant export it to unaproved civilians/organisations. The US import laws dont help either (why you get an staynless steel barrel on the mr 556). The US-goverment doesnt want you to own high tech concealeable PDWs they use themselves as well. Plus the eses and boys started useing level 1-3 vests. Btw it just looks better to dome a evil guy running around with an evil ar15/akm instead of a having to go full stalin to be able to detect whos snipeing their "peacekeepers" with a 4.6. Talking about Irak of course. Ar15 = easy to spot (especially with drones) Mp7 = easy to conceal 300 blk pdw = the next best option for a civilian if you get it small enough. Especially for dealing with realistic threats for a civilian.
