The spring MP5 weapon proves itself again and again both in standard tournament play and on the test fire range. Although the spring MP5 has recently gotten some odd press given its unusual foregrip, I believe this model is here to stay. Witness a growing trend towards using spring power rifles--like the spring MP5--in realistic tournament simulations. Need I say more?
Should you choose a Spring Desert Eagle over the MP5? After all, many Airsoft gun experts have designated the Desert Eagle as the top piece of its class, and you certainly don't want to fall behind the curve. That said, the MP5 offers a unique suite of training possibilities. As well, it's a piece of cake to transition to the Maruzen MP5K blowback rifle once you've experimented with the Spring version.
Rapid Firing Your Spring MP5
Let me whet your appetite with a few specs from the Maruzen MP5K. At a velocity of 300 fps, this 5 pound assault rifle will spit pellets at a rate of 20 RPS. With an exceptional capacity of 50 rounds and a handsome 20 inch rifle bag, the Maruzen will meet and exceed your expectations for a blowback rifle. Even among blowbacks, the Maruzen has a reputation for exceptionally authentic simulation.
Whether you choose a Spring weapon or a gas powered piece for your training gun, it's important to develop facility with all three classes of Airsofts. If you can target accurately with an AEG and you can rapid fire off your Spring weapon, you can participate in practically any Airsoft competition. Diversify your skill repertoire to expand tactical possibilities, and you'll be virtually unstoppable in any combat arena.
