KWA KMP9 Gas Blowback Airsoft Submachine Gun (Color: Black w/ Grip)

58 Customer Reviews

"This is the Manny Pacquiao of the airsoft world. Even though it's small in stature, it hits like a dump truck while putting on quite a show. Had mine for years now and it's the best gun I own.

Pros
. Phenominal accuracy and power for it's size.
. Legendary KWA reliablity
. Aftermarket upgrades are available. Rare since its a KWA.
. This gun will make your ears ring while its instilling fear in the enemy. The satisfying crackling pop it makes is perfect.

Cons
. Shoots too fast for indoor fields without a CQB Bolt or Flute valve installed.
. Hard to aim with if you use a full face mask.
. Mags are expensive.
. Orange tip is obnoxious (there are threaded adapters that fit over it though)

Overall, this gun is straight up force multiplier. You will be feared after fielding this monster. I haven't had any problems with my gun yet and I'm glad I got it!

"Although I haven't used this machine pistol more than a couple of times over the past 18 months, its few uses have been enough to strike fear into the hearts of the opposition. The KMP9 has a distinct noise that can be identified by any player with a keen ear.

The KMP9 is actually perfect to a fault. Its powerful NS2 gas system sends hailstorms of BBs flying at an enemy at roughly 400 fps. That is impressive, considering its inner barrel length of 140 mm. The externals are just as amazing as the internals; the entire receiver is made of what seems to be nylon fiber or something of the like, and rail space is provided on top and on the right side, perfect for optics and flashlights. Plus, the full-size magazine carries 48 rounds, while spare 48- and 20-round magazines are available for purchase on evike.com.

On the downside, spare magazines and the fps-reducing bolt assembly are very expensive. Typically, these items cost roughly fifty dollars. Then, for someone who has never bothered the KMP9's internals before, it can be a bit of a headache to disassemble the gun; the fps-reducing bolt assembly isn't really a drop-in piece, since it takes several minutes to disassemble the gun to install the piece. Aside from that moment of difficulty, the gun performs well, and its loud roar and insane rate of fire will continue to terrorize the enemy teams for years to come.

Pros:
- Durable, quality internals and externals
- 48-round magazine
- Adequate rail space for optics, laser sights, and flashlights
- Foregrip
- High rate of fire
- Loud

Cons:
- Expensive accessories and parts
- The fps-reducing bolt assembly takes some effort to install, but it's well worth it.

"Amazing gun! I just bought this today, and I have to say that I heard it in the range at evike and thought it was a polar star! it shoots fast and sounds amazing! hopefully no one mistakes it as a real gun and calls the police (its louder than my reaL-steel rifle!)

Pros:
very sturdy
integrated grip
loudness (pro or con)
good weight
Very gas efficient! ( I went through 5 mags without refilling it!)

Cons:
Small sights! (i suggest the aim sports operator rds, as i need one!)
loudness (pro or con)
mags are expensive, and the release button is easy to press by accident

Overall:
Very good, if you consider it, buy it! Amazing first gun, and my mom and sister have both shot it, and they need to learn to use guns properly :|
by Dillon B. on 05/23/2014
"WOW, just wow. This gun is way better than i expected it to be, got it in last week, played about 10 rounds with it at my local CQB field and it performed amazingly.

PROS:
-Strong build, doesnt feel like it is going to break.
-with low power bolt it shoots around 290 with .20 bbs (perfect for cqb fields)
-Accurate, this thing is very accurate for having a such a short inner barrel
-Havent had problems with cool down on mag dumps yet
-With a REAPS bucking this thing is really accurate
-SUPER FAST ROF
-Very loud (could be a con for some)

CONS:
-Sights are VERY small and short, and with any mask on you will have trouble seeing through them
-Mags are quite expensive

OVERALL this gun is absolutely amazing, accurate, fast shooting, compact, light and perfect for CQB. I have used it several times and not on problem has come up, this is by far the best GBB SMG i have ever had the chance to use, i would choose it over the MP7 any day. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a gbb smg or just a smg in general, i love it.
by Max B. on 02/26/2014
"One of the best GBB SMGs out there. KWA outdid themselves on this gun. The accuracy, rate of fire, build quality are outstanding. I absolutely love this gun. It shoots around 24 + or - rps, almost a fast as the MAC-11, but far more accurate and more gas efficient. If you install the REAPS or Maple Leaf bucking, it can be as accurate as an AEG. And this gun is SO loud! The muzzle acts an amplifier. Your ears will start to ring after shooting this gun for a while!
The only downsides to this gun are the horrendous orange tip, but you can replace that for $20, the expensive mag prices (the problems with GBBs), and the EXTREMELY complicated internals (the hardest GBB to work on I have seen)
Note: if you are not fairly skilled with internals, you may have to have someone service your KMP9 for you.

Pros: relatively cheap price, good mags, excellent quality, amazing ROF, accurate, great kick, great gas efficiency, lightweight, scary to be shot at with!

Cons: mags are expensive ($40 each!), orange tip, complicated internals

If you are thinking of getting the MP7 or the KMP9, go for the KMP9. It's more complicated, but you have more options with it, and it is far more versatile. And it sounds cooler!
by Steve B. on 08/02/2013
"I have had this gun for a couple of days now and I can honestly say it is AMAZING!

Pros:
lightweight
gas efficient
loud
powerful
high ROF
sturdy
small and maneuverable

Cons:
Too loud (if you play CQB)
by Jameson W. on 04/23/2013
"I have had the kmp9r for three or so weeks and I play once or twice a week yet have had no issues with it. MY kmp9r shoots 310 with 0.25g bbs and is accurate to 50ft which works fine for ME since I play at a cqb field. As long as you apply some silicon spray before and after your day of fun. It it very loud which I like and has a fun kick that isn't bad enough to hurt MY aim. On my first day the left rear sight protecter was shot off and Evike is sending me a replacement which I really like b/c I want to play while I wait for the part.
Pros:
Shoots at a great speed for indoor
Is loud
Accurate for indoor
Small
Great feel
Good hop up control

Cons (bringing them up now):
Need a flat head screw driver and needle nose pliers if you don't want to destroy your fingers
Not accurate for field
Can't use the iron sights with a mask (I use the dye i4) but can be avoided when using a sight

As I see it the pros kill the cons like I kill the enemy teem when using the kwa kmp9r. (The standard kmp9 is just as good)

"This gun is awesome! The KWA MP9 is one of the best airsoft guns I have purchased. For the power and the price, this gun is totally worth it.
by John C. on 11/02/2012
"If your thinking of buying this gun and stop thinking and just buy it. It shoots a little to hot for cqb (400 w/ .2) I tried installing a flute valve and my bolt broke so just go the easier way and buy a low power bolt so unless your a gun pro dont install it because in the long run it will be the best for you.

Pros:
Accurate
Great weight for the gun
Great look
Amazing sound when shoots(Pro or Con)
Intimidating
Gas efficient

Cons:
I didnt find any
by Marcus H. on 08/26/2012

by Kyler R. on 08/22/2012
"This is literally "THE MOST RELIABLE GUN OUT THERE"
out of all eletric guns, gas guns, smgs, anything. you can drop it on the ground, out of a window, through glass windows, pools, water, lake ,pond its like a lifeproof case for an iphone! it can do everything a real gun can do if more.

PROS
-very accurate, like most gas guns are consistently accurate also
-good rof
-reliable
-very upgradable(if you know how to do it, be careful)
-folding stock(comes in handy around corners
-lightweight never get tired running with it.

Cons
-distance isnt too great but its a CQB weapon anyways
-big orange tip, not removable
-expensive gun
-expensive mags
-gas usage is expensive
by Glenn T. on 08/16/2012
"Guns very good i gotta say got it today and i loved it but since its my first gas gun the mag got a leak cause i cocked it without the mag in you suppose to put the mag in then cock the gun and that will prevent leaking like what i did also gotta say that its very loud added a noveske and it echos the walls of the cqb field



Pros:
Loud
Mag expensive
hard recoil
blowback
super strong wont break
accurate gas efficent


Cons:
Shoots high for cqb fields
by Roger L. on 07/24/2012
"Got this gun not too long ago and I have to say wow. It's very powerful, loud, and on full auto it scares people. I just installed the low power bolt because my field with its fps rules wouldn't allow me to use it within 15 ft. Soon I'll be getting a threaded adapter and a sound amp so when I'm in buildings it will be really loud. IMPORTANT NOTICE: I have checked a lot of reviews and a lot of magazine problems are due to people putting the mag in before making sure the bolt is locked back. So just lock the bolt back before you put in the mag and along with proper maintenance this gun will last. This gun is really meant for close quarters so don't be expecting to get long range hits.

Pros:
Loud
Powerful
Great for cqb

Cons:
No warning about the mags
May need low power bolt if your field has strict fps rules.
by Benjamin M. on 04/05/2012
"I bought this gun from airsplat recently, and am very satisfied! The build is extremely nice, I dont feel like this will ever break. Not to mention great FPS! A little hot for CQB, but there is a low fps slide available for this gun. Without adjusting the hopup out of the box, this gun was incredibly accurate. And the ROF is incredible. And after cleaning the mags, it cycles a whole clip very cleanly with no sputters. But before you buy, know that spare mags are EXTREMELY hard to find, almost no site has them, and when firing full auto, you will run out of bb's in about 2.5 seconds.

Pros:
Good FPS
Accurate out of the box (can find a balance between range and fps when playing with hopup)
Solid plastic construction
AMAZING ROF = 20 rps
quality mag, conserves gas quite well, and holds a lot of rounds for a GBB
Plenty of rail space
LOUD
Folding stock

Cons:
Terribly hard to find extra magazines
Ugly orange tip
Mags dont feed well at first, I fixed this by cleaning it and using heavier BB's (.25)
Gas blows in your face when looking down sights (only a minor nuisance)
Not really anything else.
