Roller-Operated Firearms: A Brief Hipstery (CZ-52, HK P9S, MG-42, HK G3, MP5, CETME, StG-45)

[@frankbutta9344]

Excellent Presentation! I’ve heard of roller-operated many times, but now I know what it means. Thanks Matt! 👍👍💥💥

[@HipsterTactical]

Thanks, Frank! It's kind of a... rabbit hole. I learned a lot myself once I owned the CZ-52 and the P9S. Thanks for the support, as usual. Hope you're doing well!

[@JayBagwell]

Great video! Thanks for keeping the dream alive! As a Tactical Hipster myself, I find the most difficult part of collecting this stuff is availability of original magazines. Some additional pieces you might like: Hk VP70Z CZ-75 (original version) Beretta 84 cheetah

[@HipsterTactical]

Yeah, it can be a challenge finding parts. I'm surprised how quickly Sig P239 parts became tough to find. Not... unfindable. But, Sig just didn't do much in the way to support the legacy models. I'd love to try a VP70 at some point... and I do have a Beretta 85FS Cheetah, which I will definitely review at some point. I've had a few CZs... definitely need to get one on the channel at some point. Thanks for the comment!

I've had my CZ52 for sale for a month on a firearms trading website, only 1 person inquired and wanted to trade a HK USP .40, my only issue is I already own one. What's missing from the CZ52, new ergos, better sights and trigger, updated capacity magazine and release. The firepower is hands down awesome, nothing better than a firing breathing dragon. This firearms screams, remake me please!

[@HipsterTactical]

I mean, that's a pretty good trade deal--especially for a straight trade. Still, if you've already got one... I get it. Yeah, the CZ-52 could definitely use an ergonomic overhaul. I'm not a big "bore axis" guy. But damn--the angle of the "tang" pushes your hand halfway down the grip. I agree--it would be awesome to have a modernized version. Actually... there kind of is such a thing: The Delta AR Top Gun. It's basically a 5 figure CZ-52 made in Italy. Lifesizepotato has a video on it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qaG8k4KhqJhkhbc Thanks for the comment!

I was scouting your channel wondering why I couldn't find a CZ. Turns out you got a CZ 52. Can't be more hipster than the OG CZ handgun.

[@HipsterTactical]

Haha. Yeah, I feel like the CZ-52 is, like, "standard issue" for gun hipsters. And so is a Sig P6. I've owned a RAMI and a PCR. Didn't up up keeping them--they were nice shooters. Especially the RAMI. Damn. But they seemed more ammo sensitive than my Sigs, Berettas, Smiths and Walthers. So... I dunno. They didn't seem to be offering anything better/different than what I already had? Anyway... I do want to try a P-07 at some point. Honestly, the P-07 felt better in my hand (I've held one) than the PCR/P-01. Probably because the backstrap is straighter. Thanks for the comment!

[@ChaohsiangChen]

@HipsterTactical Try CZ 75 Compact. P-01 and PCR are just a bit thicker due to alloy frames. The steel frame CZ 75 Compact is a bit thinner. But IMHO, get the ex Mossad Tanfoglio copy of CZ 75 Compact.

[@c.edwardbrice3470]

couldnt agree more. I love my HK SP5K. The roller is the greatest thing I've felt in shooting.

[@HipsterTactical]

Oh, nice. I'd love to have an SP5K. And an HK91. I'll say the MP5 I shot was just as soft and dreamy as the P9S... but full auto :) Thanks for the comment!

[@DNchap1417]

CZ 52 and P9s… the only two roller-delayed handguns that get made. Of the two which one do you prefer? I have the CZ-52. Very soft-shooting but very dirty and a bit clunky and heavy.

[@HipsterTactical]

P9S by a mile. That's no slight on the CZ-52... it's powerful, reliable and... uniquely thin. Would be a good trail gun, I suppose. But the P9S is just an all-around fantastic pistol and insanely accurate. Also... the CZ-52 is actually roller locked. The P9S is roller delayed. Thanks!

[@flickerVertigo]

Just need a Korth PRS to round out the collection.

[@HipsterTactical]

Yeah. And a Korriphila HSP-701, a Geiger GRP and Delta AR Top Gun. And about 50 grand to spend on all of them 😁 I didn’t mention the 5 figure exotic roller guns in the video… just too much to go through. But they’re freakin cool. The Koriphila is the one that really catches me eye. Thanks for the comment!

[@flickerVertigo]

@HipsterTactical You've got the shopping list all ready. My misinformed opinion says youtubers are loaded with cash and I need someone to live vicariously through in my gun buying.

[@jason200912]

Manhurin 73 is better than the Korth in accuracy and durability

[@alvolante4164]

Bro how about a wonder nine video!?

[@HipsterTactical]

Ohhh. Good idea. I actually talk a lot about "wondernines" in my P99 and P88 videos. But... I could definitely see doing one that kinda discusses the wondernine "genre" in general. But I feel like I need a P226. I kinda wish I hadn't sold mine... I had a 1988 P226 with Swiss service marks. Sigh. But... good idea. Thanks!

[@johndeere1951a]

Love my CZ vz52 7.62x25 TT. It will make your ears bleed if you shoot it without headphones. A very angry round⚠️💥😲‼️ Hip presentation ✌️

[@HipsterTactical]

You ain’t lyin! It’s fun as hell to shoot. I just wish Tokarev ammo was more… available. Appreciate the comment and support, as usual.
