which is better Mac10/9 or m11?

[dchi]

The Mac seems to be a better quality gun but is so darn heavy and a bit chunky. Which do you guys think is better in 9mm. Full auto guns only. Also what is a good price for a FA m11 right now.

Like usual, you really need to shoot them side by side... They are 2 different guns even though they look about the same... Most people who pick up a M11/9 the first thing they want to do is slow it down.... Not me I ran a Mac Jac in mine.

The M11 is a little hard to control out of the box... Aim low and cut it in half. It is a small light fast gun. Nicknamed the "bullet hose".

The Mac 10 in 9mm seems to have a little more controlability like the full size uzi. But it does have quite a big grip... BTW If you get a Mac10 in 9mm you have to cut the grip off to make it a .45. If you get a Mac10 in 45 you just need the 9mm upper with bolt and the adapter...

Also the M11/9s seem to be in the high 2k range. The Mac 10s a little higher..

In my experience.......

For a factory gun with no mods I would take the MAC 10 any day of the week and twice on Tuesday, especially PS guns. They just seem to run forever. Brain is a little more forgiving of the M11 than I am. I had an M11--purchased new--that I enjoyed but after about 1,000 rds the gun started to have all sorts of problems, i.e. jams, misfeeds, etc. Sold it, bought two PS MACs and never looked back. Now, there are a lot of modifications that can be done to an M11 to really make it a neat shooting gun, side cocking uppers, task conversions, and new stocks to name a few, but you can do most of these mods to the M10 as well. If you get a good deal on an M11 dont' pass it up, but, for my moeny, I want Powder Springs Ga, stamped on every MAC I own.

BTW: Whether you purchase an M11 or M10 you should get a suppressor to accompany it. Trust me when I tell you that it makes the gun more fun to shoot and hang on to, and the cool factor is way up there. I suggest either AWC MK9, Gemtech MK9K, or Gemtech Viper.

I agree with that. The first thing a newbie M11 buyer wants to do is mod it to make it better... The suppressor is a good thing...even a fake one... The barrel is right in front of you hand... I have heard more than a few stories of people shooting a hole in the strap and saying my fingers were this close....
