I've been waiting for them to release the old style A3 receiver, I'm drooling uncontrollably right now. Hopefully they'll update the internals and implement a reliable last round stop mechanism.

Also excited about the 3 round burst. To my understanding the WE version doesn't replicate the H&K mechanism properly, it's more of a copy of the AR15 and it doesn't shoot 3 rounds every single time.

Guess it's time to start saving...

so what internal upgrades have you guys made to your mp5s?

Sequential recommended using the stock bolt?

edit: I have azimuth bolt guides on the way, and black talon bolt head set

enhanced feeding ramp is a must have upgrade.

allows for an end plate

for those who have an MP5K PDW, is your barrel one piece?

one piece barrel:


two piece barrel:


the two piece barrel means the 3 lugged end is threaded onto the main barrel

I bought the MP5K PDW conversion kit, which means it comes with the 2 piece barrel. I'm having a bit of trouble attaching the 2 piece barrel because the base doesn't have the dent to allow the sling pin to properly enter the front sight.

this is the one piece pdw barrel and has the proper indent:


two piece without proper dent:


if the lugged is threaded slightly to make room for the sling pin, it doesn't sit tightly with the threaded base

the vfc conversion kit is a PITA. i have the TSC one. had to remove the sling loop to install it.

[adeng]

if you notice, the TSC one is wider and one piece. the VFC is short and threaded inside. you can still use it, but without the sling loop.

yea I got rekt. I have been trying to get both the threaded lug end on the barrel as well as trying to get the sling pin into the sight. the threading on the sling pin is fully worn lol.

Question: anyone here using dropleg pouch for your MP5 mags? what type and brand do you use?

[Russgunner]

Hello all I just joined these forums and what are your thoughts on the ghk ak74mn and we tech pmm or pistol mackorav modreized?

[lassegmail]

Anyone had issues with the hopup not staying put?
My SD adds what seems to be full hopup after a few rounds.

I'm having some problems installing the crusader feeding ramp. it doesn't sit flush in the receiver. so basically it's difficult to get close enough at the end so the screw can sit tight

edit: I'll wait till I get a dremel or something. the receiver that I have for my MP5K fits slightly smaller than the original one. for example the mag fits tighter in the current receiver than previous one. I used a file in an attempt to reduce the size on the ramp but I'd need a dremel to cut it more precise.
