3K!?
Yeah...that is about the time I start checking my word choice. This is not a NEED gun. Oh, for sure, it can take a spot in the want camp...but at three thousand US dollars...no thanks. That is a lot of ammo and professional instruction.

The Kriss Vector is 1/2 the price and certainly took much more R&D to bring to market. I get that a company needs to recoup that R&D outlay - trying to do it in the first 3500 units is probably not the best plan of action.

I saw LWRC and was thinking $$$. Seems I was right, does everything a UMP does for $1k more without the HK kool-aid.
These are for people living in free states that do not have to spend $$$ on trying to keep something as simple as a barrel legal to own.

This was something I was definitely interested in and was waiting for a price. I am definitely not interested now. Wow.

Roster update question.
I see from the 12/11/19 meeting minutes that the SMG45 was tabled from the last September meeting. However, it was resubmitted on 10/2/19. Any word or insight on when it will be approved by the board?

Yikes. Too Gucci for me, but a beautiful firearm.

I have a feeling that this is how more than some feel about this firearm.
LWRC and JP Industries need to go have a baby already, their like 1 in the same in my opinion, like apple and Microsoft...

dont be a dumbass
Resubmitted on 10/2 for the 12/11 meeting: If it was approved at the 12/11 meeting it will appear on the roster sometime in late Jan. Otherwise, ask again in May. You could try call and see it was approved. After the roster, they publish the new additions for 30 days notice and comment, then its officially on the roster. Dont know when it would go for notice and comment, but 2 weeks later seems right.

Good news!
For those who had an LWRC SMG45 on order, as-of this morning it was approved and officially listed on the MDSP handgun roster. Can't wait to take it to the range, but it has to arrive at the shop first!

You should find your way to The Guntry Club with it. Unbelievable!

I should be buying one of these in the next few months… assuming they are in stock by then. Closest thing I'm getting to a UMP without going the USC Tommy Built route or getting a Manufacturer/Importer FFL and SOT.

You know I work right here in Owings Mills! I think I'll make that my first stop as soon as I pick it up.
On another note Ammo Jon, I have that case of 9mm subs from you sitting in my closet - waiting on 2 cans in NFA jail. Might need a deal on a case of 45 soon.

One of these is coming my way as soon as I have the money. Only problem now is it's going to make me add a 45 suppressor to my list too.

Also, don't forget to stock up on mags. UMP45 magazines aren't as plentiful as you might think.
There were only two vendors at the Nations Gun Show that stocked them last time. They only had a few each for $70 a pop. There is an indoor range 5 minutes away from Dulles that will order them for you if you pre-pay. They'll take a few weeks to come in, but they're at a nice discount.

Sounds good. Next thing you’ll have another suppressor in jail. I got spoiled with mine. Less than 3 months. I could always bring it with me when I come to pick up my 918
hkparts sells the US made 25rd UMP45 mags for $50 ea (and Germans for $80.) Not sure where you can get them cheaper new anywhere else. One can get used German mags off hkpro on occasion for a little less.

That's a good find! However, for those of us in MD w/o an out of state friend, in-person pickup at a show or shop is the only option.
