This is going to be a TL:DR as I like to be frank, open and honest about what I am selling.

 

For Sale is my G&G MP5 SMG (non working).

 

Bought this as my first AEG when I got my UKARA back in Nov 2014 brand new from a reputable Airsoft store and it has been used on probably about 5 to 6 skirmishes (my M4 took over as soon as I got it).

 

This is one of the G&G MP5 AEGs that had the G&G proprietary pneumatic blowback action, it worked flawlessly and as expected, back when it was an AEG I was getting 60 metres accuracy on this gun (measured using a range finder).

 

In Nov 2016 I purchased a Polarstar JACK with the appropriate nozzle and installed it into this AEG, whilst this disabled the use of the pneumatic blowback it has worked flawlessly. As I had a spare G&G MP5 gearbox box I used that and got rid of the original one plus motor.

 

Since then I haven’t used it much, only once at the Mall in Reading and once at Red1 The School. I attempted to sell it as a whole package MP5, HPA etc but it wasn’t getting anywhere so I have split the MP5 down.

Comes with the following:

• G&G MP5A5 with retractable stock
• 7 x G&G MP5 hi cap magazines
• 2 x unknown brand mid caps
• G&G MP5 front hand guard
• Night Evolution M300 Scoutlight
• Madbull Black Python 6.03 tight bore barrel
• Padded Hard Case
• Manual

 

Other stuff added but not in photos:

I will probably throw in the MP5 mag pouches I have as well as I will have no use for them afterwards

 

Things not included:

• Original MP5 claw sight mount (lost somewhere)
• Original MP5 handguard (lost somewhere)

 

Condition:

The MP5 body has obvious signs of use such as a scuff mark here and there, its still solidly sound

I have spray painted some key parts gold as I wanted the MP5 to match my general gun layouts of black and gold (big fan and owner of several SAI guns), I have done this to the best of my ability but it is flaking off here and there.

I have also had to mod the receiver of the MP5 to accommodate some of the bits I wanted to, firstly I dremelled in grooves on either side of the receiver in order for it to accept the front hand guard which fits perfectly with no perceptible wobble.

Secondly, I also had to drill (widen) out the base plate for the motor so that a HPA airline could run out of it. See below picture:

 

I drilled a slightly larger hole where the wires come out into the front handguard in order to pass through the HPA FCU wire harness with connector through. See below picture:

 

Lastly, 2 of the seven hi cap magazines have lost their retention pin, I managed to cobble together a pin and used some tape to hold it in place. They still work fine if a little stiff to get in and out of the mag well, see below pics.

 

Can it be converted back to AEG?

In short, yes.

The gearbox in the MP5 has never been used as an AEG, I had a spare and literally removed the old one and replaced it with the new one.

 

I think the gearbox already contains the following from memory:

• Gearbox casing
• Pneumatic blowback piston, cover and springs
• Safety lever
• Trigger
• Spring guide
• Selector plate
• All required screws

 

I will provide the following for free:

• Cylinder
• Piston head
• Piston

 

If you want to convert it back to AEG including the pneumatic blowback, the pneumatic blowback parts are still in the gearbox to do so but you will need a rubber o-ring to go between the cylinder and pneumatic blowback parts. Alternatively just use a single sealed cylinder which will disable the pneumatic blowback.

 

All you will need to add is:

• The necessary wiring
• Motor (long shaft)
• Gears
• Spring (of you choice)
• Cylinder head
• Tappet plate
• Nozzle
• Necessary version 2 springs

 

I believe you will also need a new motor base plate as the original has been drilled out to allow the HPA line to pass through.

I will not split the package as all needs to go. Not interested in swaps as I more or less have all the guns I ever want/need and frankly need the cash for other financial commitments.
