VR9 9mm MP5 Clone Review

[Prometheus]

I've had a VR9 for about a year and it's been a blast.

I've really enjoyed it and I consider myself pretty picky when it comes to clones. The VR9 is built on a LSC MP5 flat and has a manganese phosphate corrosion resistant finish that makes for a quality fit and finish that is not only pleasing to the eye but lends itself to a reliable platform.

From reliability to shooting some groups and breaking it down, it shines-

Is the VR9 a roller-lock or blow-back.. just curious.

 

[Prometheus]

Strait blow back. No rollers.

I take apart the rifle and show the bolt in the review and point put some other differences as well.

HA! it's a UMP (especially with that stock)trapped in an MP5 body!! Good lookin' rifle though.

I never cared for the looks of the UMP, although the skeletonized stock on the VR9 looks good and gets the weight under 7 pounds.
