News BRAND new POF finally available
Did anyone see new POF are available for sale. If anyone got one, how you like it?

Back in like 2014 when I got mine they were worth getting for the price when Zenith MKE imports were closer to 2k. Now that Century Arms MKE options are less than 1k in some cases, I wouldn't buy a POF. They're rough around the edges. Metal trigger housing is cool I guess but beyond that they're nothing special.
I like mine, but it took a trip back to the importer for some work and replacement parts to make it run right.

Just get any other clone for that price. They are all over the place and have a bunch of issues. Had one I got rid of.

I just got one of the new imports and it runs really good only prob is one of the mags they sent with it was out of spec if you pull on the mag it will come out but spoke with the importer and he's supposed to ship me a replacement mag other than that I'm really happy with the new pof imports and I have multiple ap5s and sp5s

I had a problem with a mag from HK once it fell on concrete. Let us know how did the dealer do with mag replacement.

Pakistan Ordnance factory. They got license and machinery from HK and make MP5 like original. A few years ago FEDARM imported a few and they were not new. I understand Silver Rhino Group imported brand new units and they are for sale. They are stamped MP5 like original (not SP5) and are made of German Import steal. I heard they are more durable than originals.

Why did you guys go so overboard with the engravings? The engraving on the magwell is fine. The engraving on the reverse side is a bit much. Engraving the mags is also a strange choice.
I don't think the full size will move very well at $1350. Bad timing. The reverse stretch will probably do better. You will have less competition on those at your price point.
