Does anyone know what is going on with the pictures of the MP9? One of the main differences between the TMP and the MP9 is that the MP9 introduced a trigger safety, but the pictured guns don't have this. Are these early versions, airsoft guns or some kind of hybrid cobbled together from a TMP and MP9 parts? The guns below are airsoft replicas, but they are accurate ones and hence have the trigger safety.  --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 09:40, 4 November 2011 (CDT)

*There's more differences between the two than just a trigger safety. The MP9 has rails, a folding stock, and a different safety, whereas the TMP does not have the first two features. Your pictures would be hybrids because they have the folding stock and rails in addition to the built in foregrip. A true TMP has no rails or stock and a built in foregrip. --[[User:Ranger12|Ranger12]] 11:55, 4 November 2011 (CDT)

MP9 pictures

Does anyone know what is going on with the pictures of the MP9? One of the main differences between the TMP and the MP9 is that the MP9 introduced a trigger safety, but the pictured guns don't have this. Are these early versions, airsoft guns or some kind of hybrid cobbled together from a TMP and MP9 parts? The guns below are airsoft replicas, but they are accurate ones and hence have the trigger safety. --commando552 09:40, 4 November 2011 (CDT)

  • There's more differences between the two than just a trigger safety. The MP9 has rails, a folding stock, and a different safety, whereas the TMP does not have the first two features.

I said ONE of the differances (of several) is the trigger safety on MP9, which the main page pictured guns do not have. My pictures are not hybrids, they are MP9s (or to be more precise exact airsoft replicas), as they have the folding stock, rails and trigger safety. --commando552 13:23, 4 November 2011 (CDT)

There is no such thing as the MP9SF.
