The MP5 is an iconic weapon. In constant use since the 1960s, its silhouette is recognized as much as the operator’s motion to charge it. Quarter Circle 10, known for its pistol caliber ARs, has created the YKMF-5 which is clearly inspired by the classic MP5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

QC5 Side-Charging 9mm Pistol<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Quarter Circle 10 is proud of its ground-up approach to building pistol-caliber ARs. They claim that the whole firearm has been designed from the start to fire pistol cartridges, rather than adapting the parts from standard ARs as other builders might. The YKMF-5 continues that tradition. It’s the latest version of their QC5 pistol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The coolest thing is the side-charging bolt handle combined with the Bowden Tactical handguard that gives it that MP5 profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The YFMK-5 is designed specifically for use with standard MP5 magazines. It’s also designed to be suppressor-ready.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AR users will find familiar controls.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Its barrel is threaded and ready for suppressors, but so is the buffer. You can choose a tungsten weight or steel weight if you’ll be using a suppressor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It comes equipped with a pistol brace.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Because this is a pistol, it comes with an SB Tactical brace. The barrel is 5.5″ long, and it weighs in at just 5.5 lbs, just like an MP5. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
