TM MP5 NGRS Owners

There's some awesome looking builds in this thread. I do love the moe handguards.

Which moe handguards are folk using, real steal from Brownells etc?

 
To anyone looking for magazines, Impulse101 just got restocked. Made an order as soon as I got the email alert ?

 
It was a bit of a improvisation so i did not documented the process, but I did it without a lathe. The electrical tools I was using was basically a dremel and a drilling machine. And the parts I used from ICS was the handguard ”base” and grip, front sight, silencer and the silencer adapter that was originally mounted on the ics outer barrel. Added a very short barrel extension because the placement of the adapter was adjusted slightly.
Could you send some pics of all the parts needed? I would very much like to try and make this conversion as well, and document the process as well for everyone else here. Especially if all you need is a dremel and drill. Cheers

 
gutted - Impulse have the 72 round magazines in stock - but no shipping to the UK currently!

 
Hello from Spain,

I got mine a couple of months ago, and apart from an update for an mlok handguard, and internally some prometheus parts, pdi barrel (6.01, i think  it is not necesary) and the hop up rubber.

BUt I am having some issues with some mags. I have 4. 

I would say that with all of them sometimes it is not feeding. and I have to press the mag from the lower part to the fire direction, in order to ease the feeding of bbs. I don't know if somebody has experienced a similar issue.

Maybe I have to disassembly the barrel/hop unit and assembly again taking care of alignment of everything... i dont know.

any advice?

thanks everybody !

 
depends on if the problem was there before you disassembled. If it wasn't then a rebuild would be the first thing to try.

 
Long shot, but I’ve got three hicaps for sale, or preferably swap for mids. Anyone interested? 
 

happy to pay a little on top for some mids too actually! 
 

 
Did the unthinkable and opened up my MP5 and let the Japanese pixie dust out

changed the bucking to a nineball purple rubber and also chucked in an eagle6 M100

managed to find a YouTube video of some Japanese guy taking the gun apart and it wasn’t too bad, struggled with removing the fire selector until I realised you have to pull the trigger as you pull it out

Work in progress SD, not the most authentic but will do the job, makes fitting batteries in easier the handguard is held on by a 3D printed cap which is then pressed against by the printed suppressor. Underneath it all is still the original gun with the tri-lug and the adapter it comes with, with an Acetech Blaster M module in front of it. Will have the suppressor made in metal in the future.

Great to see the TM finally producing the SD6, I expect the RAS version will be next or even one with a full stock... Sadly getting hold of the original MP5 is still a tad of a ball ache! Good to see that the mags are slowly becoming available too...

Awesome @JamesWills. That's the first I've seen of the insides of the MP5 gearbox.... Other than what you said in your post was the tear down straightforward?  I'll have to have a look for that video just for educational purposes of course ;)

Hope you managed to bottle that Marui Pixie dust ;)

 
Interesting. Slightly tempted to get one, since I assume the spare parts to convert your existing A5 won't be out for an age. Battery space should be better, but kind of hard to tell until we can get a look inside the handguard. I wonder if they've come up with an improved retention method for the handguard pins...

Translation for the video doesn't seem to be up yet, but it looks like just a standard suppressor rather than a tracer unit or anything fancy. I did think perhaps they'd make the full stock version first, but I guess not.

Any ideas on the accessories? Looks like a mag clamp (not a high cap as I first thought), rail mount, micro red dot and possibly dedicated mount for that.
