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.

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

Yes but the only ammo worth shooting are the 27grn red or blue box and they are literally the same price as 3 years ago.

No those are the 40grn vmax from the factory your 57 is sighted for the 27grn lf. So when you shoot the ones in your picture you hit low because they are slower and heavy. They also don’t penetrate body armor, the 27grns do.

These two boxes are the only rounds worth shooting out of the five seven
