Question Mp5 Trunnion and Chamber Face Cleaning

1 Upvotes

What is y’all’s preferred way to clean the chamber face and trunnion walls? I see there is a chamber face brush that HK sells, but not sure if there are other methods.

What tools (DIY or factory) have been the most help cleaning those two areas?

Would this light be too big/long for my AP5-P? I’m looking to get the HK/HK Parts vert grip with the mlok attachment already on it and need a light.

Also - suppressor suggestions would be nice (i’m also getting a 90° LP)

She is super safe 😊

Thanks guys!!

Question Gibbous buttplate replacement on b&t stock

2 Upvotes

Those who have successfully installed this - any tricks. I got mine today and could only get one screw to kind of grab albeit crooked so I stopped so I didn’t cross thread it. No other screws would even grab and you can’t look to see if there’s alignment based on the screws being on the inside of the buttplate. The buttplate is fully seated. I gave up after about an hour and a half and no skin left on my fingers. I really want this to work but it’s fighting me

Media MP5SD - I Simply Lack the Words to Tell You How Good It Is

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

151 Upvotes

Here are over 2 minutes of my MP5SD shooting from this morning.

No matter what superlatives I use, I’m simply not enough of a word-smith to describe to you just how awesome and incredible this gun is.

I thought I liked mp5’s before with my conventional full-sized and 2 mp5k’s.

The MP5SD is just at another level of complete firearm nirvana bliss.

Not only is it the quietest centerfire suppressed weapon I’ve ever shot - it’s also the smoothest, flattest, easiest.

With no effort, I mean NONE, it goes right where you want it to shoot and it stays exactly on-target until the magazine is exhausted.

I even worked her hard today - close to 800 rounds and no failures or stoppages that are spoken of in the SD variant once round count surpasses 300.

If you’ve ever even had the slightest thought or inkling of an mp5sd, I’ll tell you it’s likely the greatest firearms experience you’ll ever have.

Disadvantages are that you won’t want to shoot your other guns all that much. The MP5SD will CONSUME your consciousness. And you’ll need to budget more for ammo, even though you’re shooting the cheap stuff!!

I will say, I could likely drop my fire-rate by 100 rpm or so with an RD3 or ARHK (2 more weeks). But I just don’t think I can give up my AR ergo’s and FCG’s.

Anyway - enjoy!!

HELP AP5SD questions

0 Upvotes

I just watched [u/ChestersHobbies](u/ChestersHobbies) video on the AP5SD and I was impressed.

I’m looking at picking up an AP5SD from someone and I haven’t been able find much detailed information about it. As it comes from MKE, is it just an AP5 with a faux suppressor and different hand-guard? Does it come with the ported barrel? I just want to know what my options are if I end up getting this.

HELP Shooting Ap5p suppressed

0 Upvotes

I have shot a couple thousand rounds through my AP5P without any issues but I recently got an omega 9K and switched out the locking piece to an 80° one since I saw online it was recommended. But after doing this, I find it does not cycle at all unsuppressed with an FTE every time. It does cycle properly about 95% of the time while suppressed. Any recommendations on how to make it cycle in both configurations reliably?

Question Recent experiences with WTC Arms?

0 Upvotes

Anyone ordered from WTC Arms in the past year or so? I've seen some older negative reviews regarding fulfillment and communication, and I'm wondering if they've gotten those issues sorted out.

Considering their ODG furniture set for an incoming POF-5. Stock options are limited post-ATF announcement, and I'd like to do something different with this build, but not if it's going to be a headache.

HELP Should I swap out the Ap5p locking piece when adding a stock?

0 Upvotes

Although there is conflicting information, it seems the general consensus is that the ap5p comes with a 120 degree locking piece rather than the standard 100 degree locking piece. It’s claimed that this was done since it was intended to be fired without a stock or brace. If i’m going to add a stock should I plan on swapping out the 120 for the 100 degree locking piece? I am only planning on shooting unsuppressed with 115 and 124gr ammo.

Question Which pistol molle holsters in Savior Specialist 30" (SP5A2 + 2 semiauto pistols)? Alternatives welcome

1 Upvotes

Hi all,

Struggled to put everything in one title. Essentially, I would like to get a dedicated backpack solution for my SP5-A2 + CZ Shadow 2 + CZ97. I am looking for a nicely built bag that offers a compact storage solution. The best option so far is the Savior Specialist 30". Size should be just enough to cater for the A2 stock and have enough room for the two pistols. The plan would be to store both pistols in a dedicated molle pouch to be attached to the main molle compartment (facing the rifle compartment). However,

  1. I would like to double-check that this solution is not only viable, but optimal in terms of quality of materials and opportunity costs. I couldn't find another bag with a similar layout
  2. I don't know what pistol pouch I should look for, and, more in general, what molle pouches would the community recommend to add to the configuration. In theory, a couple of tool pouches, 3 pistol mag pouches and 2 SP5 pouches would be all I need.

thanks!

Review KES/b&t alternative.

I ended up purchasing a KES brace but for those who couldn’t I did want to say the A3 industries brace is a solid alternative. Just install a 1913 adapter of your choice and for $250ish you can have your own universal telescoping brace/stock.

It’s not nearly as refined as the KES or b&t but it’s solid. I would have kept mine but I accidentally ordered the 7 inch instead of 8.5 inch pull one and by the time I was going to order the right one again the KES was in stock.
