Did you change the spring yourself? I took a SHS M120 that I cut myself to adjust the FPS. I played 2 games with it, I am at 330fps, perfect FPS with 27bbs second (lipo 11.1 1100mha).

I did not change the spring. All factory internals.

What magazine pouches are ppl running?

Lucky you guys... Meanwhile CBSA still looking at my gun from January....

And MP7 specific pouches exist.

I’ve seen the condor ones online, in the USA. I’ll order those if I can’t find anything better.
Anyone seen taco style MP7 pouches? Brand? Link?

Honestly I think when I get the MP7 I'm also going to just get a Haley D3CR with SMG inserts too.

Mine was 375/380fps, CBSA opened the box and tested the AEG. I was really clear with WGC shop, gun must shoot more than 366fps. By the way, the MP7 has a quick spring change by the way.

Haven't touched it, completely stock and it's shooting CQB legal. I don't know and I'm not gonna worry about it.

One more frustration I noticed. When firing full auto it's easy to push up on the fire selector with the knuckle of your thumb, and it doesn't CLICK to the Semi Auto spot, but it does switch the gun to Semi Auto interrupting your burst. I don't know if this is just mine, but I don't think the process of back and forth with Redwolf is going to be too kind to me if this happens to be a lemon, and if not then it's something to be aware of and maybe look into a fix.

Not a problem to me because I can't imagine going outdoor with this thing, and my field does a semi auto restriction, but a fix in a few of these areas would make our Canadian price tags be a little more stomachable.

I can get envious of my friend's Kriss, which has a spring de compressor, and battery cutoff on its safety, but maybe there just isn't enough space in the MP7 for those kinds of features anyway.

Again, a full scale MP7 AEG, I was onboard from the get go. But this thing is far from perfect and in my opinion there's enough here to consider and reconsider a purchase at our Canadian prices.

Just ordered mine, would a 1100 11.1 suffice or should I get the 900 that they recommend?

[Polskadude]

1100 11.1 single cell battery will fit. But it’s tight.

[JKxWKW]

just got mine, yea 1100 is a really tight fit, wouldn't recommend trying that size, ill have to order the 900mah one.

[p0nch3]

Can anyone comment on the size of the rifle? is it closer to the KWA size or the VFC/real steel one?

[BioRage]

Vfc = 1:1

tm/kwa = / = 1:1

I am able to fit the 11.1 1100 without issue. Check online, you have some tutorials to insert the battery.

Mat.

It's hard to make a recommendation for this one, it's expensive.... *really* expensive. And doesn't have a lot of the quality of life features you might hope for at the price; battery cutoff, spring detenser, lipo level detection, hell it's missing the RAILS when you get it. The empty mag detection is pretty great but the paranoia about breaking your mags if you insert them without depressing the follower is a minor inconvenience sure, but a thing nonetheless.

I think the external build quality feels a bit less sturdy than the KWA, and I think the stock sights are worse too. The selector switch also has a habit of getting jostled just a little up by your thumb knuckle and without clicking into place, it'll shift to semi auto. I've already mentioned I dunno if this is common, or just mine but it happens, and it isn't a big deal for me, but it'd be nice if it wasn't true at all. Apparently the hopups have a tendency to rip after a couple thousand rounds through. Mine's fine but I'm keeping my eye on it.

I've mentioned all of this before, and I'm doing so again because I also wanna say holy hell do I love this thing.

It works perfectly for my local field, snappy trigger and accurate as hell, it fits my playstyle so well. I've tried a UMP, MP5K, and P90 and I liked things about each of them but this is the gun I'd take if I could only have one.

If you're looking to buy this one, just be aware what you're spending your money on cause it's a lot of damn money.

Also, I know most people have probably figured out their own solutions by now, but Condor MP5 Magazine pouches with the flaps cut off work for me. It's a tight fit but the part of the magazine which goes into the pistol grip will also fit into the pouch. You won't be quickly putting them back into their pouches, but they hold and come out just fine.

Don't know if I got a lemon but I managed to break it already.

Piston teeth decided to disassemble itself from the piston. I realized afterwards that it definitely needed AOE correction. Running stock spring, got through 2 mags in semi with maybe 10-15 shots in full auto before it did this.

Currently chatting with VFC about it, first time they've seen this too so far.
