The G&G ones are hit and miss whether they work at all or pack it in before you finish the first mag. It seems with G&G, if you can get it to work for 1 day, you MAY have a decent gun.

The tappet issue is one thing, the assembly sucks, parts are TM quality at best, but the fit and finish are what will sell you on it. If the gun is a dud, you can always fix it.

I know retailers who are scared to sell the UMP because they know that it's crapshoot whether the thing works or craters right out of the box.

The ones I've worked on were either DOA (electrical problem) or tappet failure of sorts after 1 mag.

Marui might make one that actually works and mags would be easy enough to get.
