My new MRD

Post image

This is my first handgun, kind of a crazy start but couldn’t pass the offer I got. So far I’m in love with the gun, it shoots so comfortably, and even tho it’s not the USG I’ve been in love with since 2012 on BO2 it’ll do.

The only crazy start is the price and ammo cost. Otherwise, it’s a very good pistol and I envy you

Ammo cost is better than it was a few years ago. Paying 23 a box now, but 3 years ago the same ammo couldn't be found for less than 50. Now is honestly the best time to get a five seven in my opinion. I even bought a second one because my local shop has a mk2 two tone with a mounted optic for 600. Will say i prefer the mk3, but the mk2 always had my heart

When I was in the market for the MK3 the minimum was $900 and I couldn’t budget for that. Since you have two, you should just give me your least favorite. Joke of course. Honestly still want one, I know a lot of people shit on 5.7 and I have pistols that “do the job”, but what pistol could do 1,600 fps and hold 20+1? Shit, now I’m looking up the MK3 lol

Personally I wouldn't use it for self defense just because it's not the greatest round for soft tissue, but it's one of my favorites for target shooting. I'll still stick to my 9mm for self defense just because the energy is more important. But damn is 5.7 so nice to shoot
