well my rifled barrel is great and improves accuracy over the stock

The carry handle and Dot Scope is high enough so my stock doesnt get in the way of my mask.

ive got 3 internal upgrades, my internals are polished which means theres much less friction on the moving parts and cause of that it saves on gas!

The click Ratchet of the cyclone is now all metal so thats not going to wear away and need replacing

MY JCS Power Tube is Solid Metal and wont wear down, plus it saves on gas too and increases fps.

plus everything soo solid it feels unbreakable!

im eventually gonna get a Qloader for it so thats gonna require shaving off the cyclone claw things to attach the direct feed sniper mount (tho its not gonna be a sniper rifle)

it was something i saw on RAP's website that made me excited! no more attaching it under the barrel or have hoses wherever... direct from the Qloader feeder right into the gun! lovely! :)

Blech. I can't stand markers that are a mishmash of various guns. Sorry, but it doesn't work for me.

personally it makes me think of a H&K G3, tho im not sure why. doesnt feel like a UMP when u hold it... kinda like between a rifle and a CQB marker...

...plus for proper CQB i could always take the stock off n replace it with the stock stock, which pretty much isnt a stock!

It is a mismatched of milsim parts but it looks like it goes together imo. Besides who says when you make a milsim it has to look like a production firearm, just don't make one that looks too ridiculous.  I will give it a 10/10 because you used your imagination and made a original look that looks good!

Not bad, but I don't really like the UMP body with a longer barrel.

I think that it looks good personally; I like milsim. I do have to agree that the "lip" behind the handguard should be removed. Also, you mentioned Rap4's "Sniper Adapter" for the A5; dont do it. It will be nothing but trouble. I got it for my A5 and i had to fabricate a bracket that holds it on the side. It just doesnt work well at all. Check out the Qloader forums for more info on that though.
