I'm going to spoil the joke right here, from the outset.
This is before the video goes live - I'm making this video to be a further bellend by explaining that part 1 of this video was made as a joke... It's a piss-take channel, that's what I do.
If you don't want to get in on the joke, don't listen to the guy telling it.
TMP5 NGRS
Pro
Heavy
Mostly solid
Bolt hold open & charging handle
Light recoil, enough to feel it but not enough to make it inaccurate
Look ok
Rotary hop unit
Cons
The front wobbles - it does, I've seen a good few, the join in the cocking tube
It's low powered - power isn't everything but if it's too low, you're outgunned
It's crazy expensive for a clicky thing & two power buttons
LOADS of proprietary parts inc hop unit, barrel & rubber
The ETU is awful & spares SUCK to get hold of
I've been bombed with messages to buy the ETU I took out, but it came out so I could A, make it run brushless as they do not & even on certain normal brushed motors, the cycle was unreliable - half cycles, jams...
But regardless, I had to buy one to to some R&D on... so that you plebs may have something to replace the shonk parts with.... I spent my money for the greater good.... for the benefit of the TM Recoil fanbois.... Why else would I buy one to gut?
Enjoy the video.
