This video demonstrates the performance of a PTR9CT MP5 equipped with a full-auto trigger pack through various tests. It compares semi-automatic and full-automatic firing speeds and accuracy, evaluates the practicality of shooting while moving, and tests the sound reduction capabilities of different suppressors and ammunition types. The video also includes destructive testing against various objects and a durability test against a weight.

Quick Summary

The PTR9CT MP5 in full-auto is 'awesome' but features a heavy 15-16 lb trigger pull impacting accuracy. Full-auto is faster but less accurate than semi-auto, especially when moving. The quietest suppressed setup tested was the Dead Air Wolfman with 150-grain subsonic ammo.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the PTR9CT MP5 like in full-auto?

The PTR9CT MP5 in full-auto is described as 'awesome.' It fires rapidly, but the trigger pull is very heavy (estimated 15-16 lbs), impacting semi-automatic control and overall accuracy in full-auto mode.

How accurate is a full-auto MP5 compared to semi-auto?

Accuracy is significantly reduced in full-auto. In tests at 15 yards, semi-auto had all 15 rounds on paper, while full-auto only landed 9 out of 15 on paper for an inexperienced shooter.

What is the quietest suppressor setup for an MP5?

The quietest setup tested was the Dead Air Wolfman suppressor paired with 150-grain subsonic 9mm ammunition. While hearing safe, it was not 'Hollywood quiet' but significantly reduced the sound signature.

Can you shoot accurately while walking or running with a full-auto MP5?

Shooting accurately while moving with a full-auto MP5 is challenging. Walking resulted in more hits than running, and even with faster running, accuracy was compromised, with a significant portion of rounds missing the target.
