TM MP5 NGRS Owners

[MilesR97]

I’ve just received my tm mp5a5 ngrs and the magazines seem quite difficult to put in and after loading them around 20-30 times they’ve slightly worn away at the side. can anyone confirm this is normal or not? cheers

Had the same, not sure what to do about it though.

same, i feel like sending it back and asking for another one but i dunno how that will go with such limited stock etc.. i really have to force the mags in though, it definitely doesnt seem right ?

 

[TheFull9]

Not to be funny but what would another one achieve?  It's the design.  For now all I can do is press the mag catch lever as the mag is going in, if it's as common as I suspect an update or aftermarket fix will come.

I didnt realise this was a really common problem and thought mine was faulty, but it seems its fairly normal, sorry.

Nothing to apologise about mate lol, but if there's 2 people in just this small thread it's probably common and a design flaw; someone else will now say they don't have it but I'd bet this issue will show up a lot as the guns get more prevalent and get used over the next year or so.  That's airsoft, unfortunately it's a niche tinkerers' hobby, and sure you have the same consumer rights as with anything, but you'd just waste your own time getting repeated returns quite likely.  Sometimes you've gotta bite the bullet in this game.

Just a heads up SRC stocks fit only require the hole drilling out to allow the tm pin to pass through about a 1mm too small of a diameter just waiting on my Midwest industries rail

mags are snug in mine , they have to be perfectly square or it’s a no go , depressing the mag release a touch also makes life a bit easier . The wear you are seeing would likely be 10times worse with a loose fitting rattletastic edition. Try a wipe over inside the magwell and the tops of the mags with some easyglide silicone spray , the key here is wipe .. dont spray it directly into or onto , just a little on a cloth .

Managed the spring upgrade on mine to an Eagle 6 M100, also seeing around 340.

Wasn't too difficult, just following the video and going slow. I found I didn't need to take it apart quite as much as they did (I didn't take the FCU off or remove the recoil unit).

Slightly arsed up putting recoil unit back together, but worked it out in the end. Also seemed a bit fiddly getting the fire selector back in.

At least the barrel/hop is accessible without taking the whole lower receiver apart, unlike the original. I didn't though.

Testing tomorrow I think...

Midwest industries rail turned up now to get some batteries small enough to fit

Hey folks, any of you have a recommendation for a speed loader like the odin sidewinder? 

I bought one from big dragon with an adapter but it seems the NGRS are a bit fatter

Alright haha, thanks for the link!

Thanks Stew, that's what I was hoping. 

Has anyone here tried the G&P flashlight handguard?

Hey, I tried this today. It won't fit without taking a bit from the insides. Personally not a fan of the quality, in my case the button for the light has shady contacts which makes it more of a strobe than anything else. Returning it.

Unfortunately all torch grips on the market require some modification to be "useable" I wasnt massively impressed with the quality of the VFC torchgrip I've got but its 10% of the price of a RS surefire grip

I'm still waiting in the hopes that TM will release one. If they do the same job as they have on the polymer on the gun it should be good.

Mind you, I'm still hoping they'll release some more mags, so...

regarding the stock , if the “fit” is anything like the adaptor I bought then I’d avoid it , very poor fit with no real way to correct it

looks lovely and I had high hopes for it but sadly it flops around like an old donkeys cock.

a 3D printed sleave between the receiver and the stock would probably work

Ii wonder if they’ve used the same specification for the fit of complete stock kit as the adaptor , if you want to take a look at the adaptor before committing and think you may be able to do a workaround then I’d be happy to send the adaptor for you to take a look at . It’s just sat here doing nothing at the moment , if you figure something out then do it twice and let me buy one  and if you don’t then just pop it back in the post .

offers there if it may be of help
