If it's as soft as an MP5 + reliable (??) then they have gold Yea and a better trigger too than an MP-5 (with few exceptions H&K rifle triggers stink) Link to comment
Bdh821 Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 At this rate, you could just get a MPX as they shoot softer than like 95% of all the other PCCs I've used. But at the end of the day, this stuff wont help you get to GM. You just gotta go fast and shoot A's. It's that simple... Link to comment

There is a high probability they will hit the mark out of the gate and it will be well supported. Edited January 4, 2021 by bwikel Link to comment

Don't forget the mid generation fixes/modifications that they don't tell anyone about... maybe JP will make it a complete ambi gun from the factory (mag button specifically). Let's be honest, they wont. Sucks to be a south paw. Link to comment

Posvar Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 Word on the street from a viable source is that it will be more expensive than the GMR 15 but not sure exactly how much more. So it’s either $2000 or $3000 or whatever they come up with. Link to comment
Posvar Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 Sounds like Q3 or late Q4 so probably next year. Save up your cash Link to comment
Fasthenk65 Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 saving already anybody wants to buy a GMR 15 ? but seriously this could be something! Link to comment
Fasthenk65 Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 and you guys are lucky it takes another 6 Months for Europeans to get one as usual... Link to comment
SAR421 Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 I’ll be very interested to see comparisons of this Roller Delayed vs the MPX Gas Piston. I may be the minority but I also wished they changed from Glock mags to something like a Scorpion mag to get a double stack / double feed magazine, which makes far more sense in a PCC. Glock mags have to be angled at an awkward angle to work in a rifle and have inherent reliability concerns over a good double stack / double feed magazine. Link to comment

I’ve had good luck with Endomags in a standard AR15 lower, although they don’t seem to like working with a short-stroked system. Link to comment

In the video it looks like Josh still has Glock mags though. Perhaps they will change this by the time it is released. I know the new JP design will be less maintenance heavy compared to an MPX.

Yeah, it looks like it’s still Glock mag based from the ad as well. Maybe they’ll offer versions in both, although I’d imagine that would require changes to the bolt and lower to accommodate the change. Outside of just reliability, the reload angle is always weird on pistol mag based PCC’s. Purpose built PCC mags are the way to go, Scorpion mags are reliable and cheap. Seems the obvious option. The need to use the same mags for pistol and rifle I think is drastically over prioritized. Link to comment

SteelCityShooter Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 I wonder if there will be a retrofit kit to upgrade existing GMR-15 and perhaps GMR-13 rifles. Link to comment

Ok, to be fair that wouldn’t be technologically that feasible. For a roller delay system the upper receiver would need to have appropriate features to interact with the rollers. So at minimum you’d need a new or modified upper receiver and the completely new bolt/carrier. Usually roller delayed systems have a fluted chamber to deal with high extraction pressure as well which is at another modified component. The only technically plausible solution they might offer is to be able to buy a completed upper that would work with your existing lower. Not sure if they’re compatible but it would be possible.

Of course. I didn't expect the "upgrade kit" would be just a few simple pieces but, as you noted, perhaps just a revised upper receiver. Cheaper than an entire new gun. Link to comment
egd5 Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 OK, dummy here. What is a roller delay system and why is it better I assume? Link to comment
