The grip looks promising. Do people still use plastic handguards?

The selector is interesting, as well. I've been wanting something ambi that also has a (hopefully) better angle on the lever. As it is now on mine, I have to do some thumb wrestling, especially if the selector goes past the first detent and I'm trying to get it back up to SAFE during manipulation.

Honest question - the MP5 was THE subgun to have back in the 80s & 90s. Is it still that popular, or has it been surpassed by something else? I just don't see that many any more. Most of the tactical units around me have switched over to suppressed SBRs in 5.56 nowadays.

From a duty perspective, I think most have switched over to ARs and there are some newer subguns on the market like the MP7, B&T, and MPX. For civilian / personal use, the MP5s are just quite expensive, even the clones, so that keeps the popularity down a bit. A CZ Scorpion or AR9 is half the price.

This will still be a niche market.
PD's are all transitioning away from MP5's, pistol cal sub guns in general. Clones, even the cheaper clones are still $1700+, so not too many people have one. More than in years past for sure though.
Definitely interested in the Grip.
I'll stick with the KAC RAS or a Surefire 628 for the foreend though.

Looks like PSA might be driving the initial demand here:

PSA needs to be in the $1200 range. Otherwise this is going to flop hard.
