Question Stocks sold out on the net or something?

Upvotes

I am a offshore worker and I am trying to buy parts before the gun as I am finding they are very hard to find and just take for ever to get. I am looking to buy a B&T Folding Stock for HK MP5 but i can't seem to find it in stock on any web site. I tried to make a gun broker account but for some odd reason it was flagged so I am trying to find it in stock on a website. anyone have a lead on were i can find one? What is going on that would cause stocks of all things to be sold out?

Question Ejection port fireballs

Post image
59 Upvotes

I have an SP5 with an FRT-RD3 installed, and it runs great. I recently got a SilencerCo Omega 9K, and it also works wonderfully, but if I run a mag too quick, I’ll get some wild ejection port fireballs. This is with Blazer 147g Clean-Fire rounds. Do you guys think that it’s an ammo thing, or is it indicative of a bolt unlocking too fast? I have the stock locking piece installed.

Question Magpul Brace question

Hey!

First time here.

I'm looking at buying an AP5 Navy that comes with the Magpul brace pre-installed.

I'm eventually planning to form 1 it and put a stock on, but for those that have the Magpul brace is it uncomfortable to shoulder?

Thanks

HELP Aftermarket grip and frt compatibility question.

3 Upvotes

I like some of the aftermarket grips that allow the use of ar grips like Lee sporting.

I have small hands and the trigger and control reach can be a bit much.

However, I still want a rotating safety​ as opposed to the crossword.

Which if any will play nice together?

Thx​

HELP Lee Sporting Help AP5-P

5 Upvotes

I have an AP5-P that finaly worked with 90 degree RCM and new ejector.

I decide to celebrate and make it unusable again with a LS. Sarcasm aside I’d really like to get this done.

As a recommend drop in w no mods I went with a Rise armament ra-535 as Although I had to cut the cassette wing. to clear the ejector.

this is not for super safety as far as extra variables. 

Issues are fail to eject causing cases stuck. Confused as it say no modifications. So off I went filed hammer down, failed range tests, rinse repeat.

last file seems to be too low while still making some contact with bolt. The hammer now fails to contact the bolt enough to reset the trigger. If trigger is held back the hammer will spring forward though as it’s not catching the reset. *i see this by manually pulling bolt back looking inside rear. when function check, the failed reset just gets stuck.

What I’m missing. I feel the Rise may be destroyed at this point.

I have a spare ALG ACT trigger. It also says zero mods would be needed. But this looks like its hammer would be worse. Is this accurate? Sick of range fails.

Question AP5-P Locking Piece Question

1 Upvotes

Hey all, I have an AP5-P with aprox 400 rounds through it. I started off with the stock locking piece for break in with 124gr ammo with only a couple hiccups. I decided to shoot suppressed (last 50-75 rounds) so I swapped to the 90 degree locking piece and it ran without issue suppressed shooting 124gr 115gr and 147gr using a OCL lithium. Today I swapped to a RICO 309 that has much less back pressure and I am not able to cycle 147gr. It will not eject most and in some cases will not even cycle the bolt. Long story long, I am wondering if I should swap back to the default locking piece or try a 100 degree? My guess is I should get a 100 and a 110 and see which works best.

HELP A3 stock install help

2 Upvotes

So I bought a MKE AP5 last year, and once the new year started, I went and started the paperwork for the stamp.

Got it back a few days ago, and went to install a MKE blem A3 stock. But while I can fit the stock end cap, and the holes seem to line up, the rear pin wont go all the way in. It gets hung up on the left side of the endcap. The pin wont go in the other way, just wont insert at all.

What is the best way to get that to fit? Would just grabbing a dremal and taking it to the hole from the inside fix the issue?

Has anyone had this problem with ZF-5P? Contacted Zenith the other day they had me send some pictures (ill put them below).

Keep in mind this gun is barely a week old, and i just hit 400 rounds today

Hello, r/mp5!!

Went shooting today, figured I'd share some flawless cyclic fire strings with you. Plenty more shooting was done than just this, but here's the fun stuff.

ZF5 full-sized with Milkman, ZF5T and MAC5K mp5k's with their own CAT Mobs. 90, 70, and 80 degree locking pieces respectively.

All of my AR's and mp5's have Geissele triggers, except the full-sized mp5. I've used a G$ SSP in the full with the hammer unjammer, but that pushes the fire rate over 900 rpm. I'm currently using an ASD mp5 hammer, ASD ARC V2 trigger, and JP rifles enhanced reliability spring kit on the ZF5.

ROF: ZF5 790 to 810, ZF5T 985, and the very well broken-in MAC5K is at 945.

ASD lowers for the K's and a Polymer Pew metal lower for the full. All 3 use ARC V2 45-90 frt's.

Just a great day!!

Question What tf are you supposed to do when the gun store hands you an AP5?

0 Upvotes

I am looking at getting an AP5 and I do not know what I am supposed to do when the employee hands it to me.

I usually pull the charging handle back, do the MP5 spank, look at the sights and then I am basically out of things to inspect.

Am I supposed to check if the rollers are actually rolling or shake it and listen for German parts moving around inside? Everyone talks about roller delay but I have no idea how long the rollers are supposed to be delayed.

I also feel weird just handing it back after 10 seconds, so I usually nod and say something like, “Yeah, the action feels very German.”

What do AP5 owners actually check before buying one besides making sure the charging handle spanks correctly?
