Let's just shoot the trees
oh
oh how cool it is I can't stop halfway though now I can't see though
that's a long magazine for the YouTube monetization guys that was only 29 rounds right
so today we have the ZF-5 the Zenith American made ZF-5 so of course you're gonna know it
looks just like the MP5 and I gotta tell you I'm liking it and this from a guy who has a real MP5
as soon as I pulled it out of the box I'm like oh yeah yeah that's quality right there and of
course you got the American flag it just speaks that they've done a bit more than just trying
to make a cheap MP5 because it's not cheap to make MP5 uh that's why PSA abandoned theirs is
at least that's the rumor so this is the pistol version in fact they are coming out with the K
version which will be even cooler it comes with a sling it comes with the Optics mount it comes
with magazines a cool case flash hider tri-lug Mount three lug Mount yep and it's just running
great for us I'd honestly want to SBR this and then it would be even cooler the stock
MP5 safety selector is just always trash this is the Magpul enhanced one and that was a really good
move because you can actually reach it now because your normal MP5 is just really hard to reach three
lug Mount is a little bit different where like the suppressor push down and press this has the
this little spring-loaded arm that will lock onto it so interesting different but something
they did do that was great with their three lug Mount is it's also threaded they have the half
by 28 threads up here and now that is just genius and I love that it worked out so easily so if you
want to put just a regular thread on suppressor for a fixed Barrel you can do that but if you're
like oh no we got the three lug it's better to do that anyway one it's faster too it looks stupid
if you have the exposed three lug when you have a suppressor on it oh now it looks even
cooler though being all nice and shorty we've got a couple different suppressors that I want to try
today because I'm a roller delayed blowback uh it works really well suppressed but because you have
that delay and so I mean it's the same as the MP5 bolts same rollers and everything else in
there just got this HuxWrks cash9 suppressor in it is perfectly clean and never been shot before
pause okay let's not shoot a steel plate because we can't enjoy it I'm surprised how quiet that was
that is cool
so quiet one more round
that's a 200 yard Target now here's my conundrum on these threaded uh pieces if
if we're going to shoot with a suppressor with the three lug Mount do we keep it on
or might it work off but if we leave it off the threads might get dirty for today we're
just going to leave it off because we may go back and forth okay this is the yhmr9
that's cool that's cool still stinking quiet
all right so now we have the Bowers group suppressor now this is the verse 9s oh that
three leg was probably dirty uh this is one that shoot ah very robust so if you wanted to say shoot
just forever out of it this is the one you go to but I wanted to see the difference in sound
I tell you they're all so quiet so it's kind of like a testament to the gun itself if you don't
know about the roller delayed blowback who will let you go on some nerdy channel to see that in
summary it's got the rollers that go into the breach and the barrel there so that once your
round is fired it takes them a second to get sucked back into the bolt because you have a
locking piece that forces them in and it slows it down we did a comparison side by side with
the Banshee with the radial delayed blowback and a real MP5 and it turns out you have the
MP5 steel King that roller delay blowback it just it just absorbs a lot of that recoil as
well oh and that's something when you put an optic and a rail on to an MP5 that cocking
uh lug is it gets close so that's why I put my Red Dot further back when I usually have it more
forward and then now we have this so so at least I'm not hitting the optic but you this pick rail
is really close to where you're operating you know that hand you can bash your knuckles I've
done that before with a with the optic more forward word so you gotta watch out for that
there it is different suppressors will have different holds so we were running the aims
today because I got to take the MP5 course with HK over at WOFT and the MP5 master was
there and this is what we're using so that was cool but I figured come on for accuracy
test let's actually put a scope on oh wow that barely clears our cocking handle I didn't think
about that earlier I just was looking at the sight clearance it works it's right there but it works
all right let's get a fresh painted Target and see what kind of accuracy we can get from this
I know it looks silly and it's hard to use because it's actually a rifle scope and not
a pistol scope and so the eye relief is rifle but I'm going to sightmark Citadel 6X I forgot
the box but Belom that's it Belom ammo running pretty good 124 NATO that's why I went with it
because that's what MP5 is like 110 yards out there we have a freshly painted Target
this is the awkwardest because I don't want to blow my bag up I think we oh yeah that looks good
all right just about an inch to the right of where I was aiming all right really close to it
that's dead center
dead center same hole it's it is rocking a minute so that's like a half inch
forgiveness right there I think that was five but I'm having too much fun foreign
it's a nice little cluster okay I'm gonna try to shoot the hostage head
well because this is doing fine there's definitely hostage heads up there we go I gotta show you
how the trigger works because that's why it's going off while I'm talking because I'm pressing
through the whole time and I'm still talking I can talk because my I'd have no cheek weld
sweet okay now I'm just bored let's go out to
200 there there's a Gong I'm gonna give it some holdover
there it is
finally missed one but that's fun right there if you're gonna use this for say
defensive purposes you're going to want to put a light or something on it and you can it looks
so dumb when you pull these off but one pin and your hand guard comes right off kind of
looks like a Han Solo Blaster at that point but on my MP5 we have a Midwest Industries
makes a nice little inlock rail so then you can put lights on it and you can actually you
know use it for that but trigger we're gonna talk about trigger real quick so empty empty
there we've got a little bit of movement but then see that that movement there so it's
it's uh it's heavy and here's your reset there that much reset you see got a little movement
okay it's like a quarter inch but then it moves almost a half inch but a quarter inch is about
when it breaks but it's it's a good seven pounds 11 ounces is like the lightest I've had it break
so yes that's what's it's real okay it's just like a real MP5 but it's just the Machining and all
just looks smoother I mean some people are going to hate me HK Pierce are going to hate it but
it's like it really looks and runs good all right now I want to shoot at 200 yards some more though
now in the past I've had some issues with mp5s and not wanting to feed hollow points
and if you want to be uh using it this zf5 as a actual defensive weapon you're gonna
need those hollow points to work well it fed right there so let's just see see what it does
10 out of 10 would recommend
that makes 11. so while we're walking down to 200 yards to uh freshen up our we didn't bring
the paint it is fluted uh that's something I was surprised about I'm like okay we know
it's roller delayed we know everything matches an HK mp5 perfectly but is that chamber fluted
it is and if you're new to fluting uh what it is is it has those the same flutes that
you see on the brass those little black lines you have that etched into the chamber etch may
not be machined into the chamber and what that does is when you have a little bit of blowback
it squishes the brass just a little bit to Aid in extraction and make sure it blows out so it makes
it more reliable uh sometimes Reloaders don't like it I reload it and it's fine
all right this may not stick on fresh paint but I got I want to try it I want to try to
Firebird at 200 at this oh my that little Firebird Target is really small at 200
yards I have no idea where to even try so we're just gonna hold a couple feet over
okay I can see my
Im so
oh that was good right there
the target okay I think I have like three or four rounds so now that I
know my hold that's crazy that's just funny because the delay was even crazy
okay well a lot better than I expected with a 200 yard pistol
that's kind of cool so I guess that's about everything on this zf5 uh I think it's a cool
choice and yes there is the sp5 out there right now and if you want to buy it you can
spend almost a thousand dollars more to get it like I said quality I like it it's good stuff
uh put an SBR on that put a four in so you can put a light and you can actually do some serious
work with it it's still not as ergonomic and upgradable as an AR but The Nostalgia and the
just cool factor and plus nine millimeter you can shoot steel up close that makes it
fun too thanks for joining me today guys as we checked out the Zenith Firearms the F5 okay bye
foreign
did you see that
hey come on nothing come on that's it
yeah I came in like a wrecking ball
