The PTR 9CT Modernization Project

Is the MP5 platform still the cream of the crop for pistol caliber carbines? Is it still 1985? In this video we go over the aftermarket parts and accessories that you need to make an MP5 clone into a viable modern pistol caliber ca- pistol. We started with a factory fresh PTR 9CT 601 and turned it into a night vision capable tactical subgun. But that sucked, so we scaled it back a bit. The end result is a little more practical and tasteful.
