won't fit 1300 nunchuck battery


?

Yeah I've got the Magpul, functionally I think it's the very best option going for the A5. Probably a bit bland looking these days but loads of battery room, comparatively not that pricey, as much M-LOK as you'll ever want and not bloody freezing in the winter. Mine took the tiniest bit of filing to a couple of corners internally to snap on perfectly, but they don't even always need that.

 
Back after 11 years off airsoft so I’m making some mistakes haha!

I went for the Magpul. Cheers

 
I have fitted a small nunchuck lipo on tamiya in a midwest grip(think it was vapex). It's super tight but doable - you have to run the wires on top of the barrel, and the battery at 4 and 8 o'clock.

I might change them to the new plug to make more space, but that limits the battery compatibility between other mp5's, and also if i do it wrong and blow the fet, it be proper buggered.

That said, i later moved the midwest grip to an A4 and went magpul on the A5.

Was that the 1300mah? I was close to fitting it fully but was a right pain. I do like the Magpul more than I thought and I love the NGRS Mp5 so much I might just get the A4 as well anyways.

Yeah it was a vapex lp302.

Put the wires above the barrel, the batts left and right and the connectors at 6 o'clock and its a squeeze but does all fit.

 
Anyone else’s tri lug adapter a wobbly mess? Tracer shooting all over the place. Shimming the end of the barrel with a bit of tape works as temp fix. Anyone done anything more aesthetically pleasing to fix this?

Is it snappy when you pull it in/out? I had the same problem and it turned out that the suppressor washers were stopping it from properly returning to the neutral position. I run it now with a slight gap and no washers and get no wobble.

Hows that rail fit and what about battery space?


Rail fits via the 4 clamp points by the ejection port/magwell. Battery space is admittedly pretty tight but it fits (barely lol). If you plan on getting stuff for the handguard I'd recommend either cutting the screws down or buying shorter ones. I used 8mm M4 screws to stop any puncture issues. it's the 5KU Monolithic Rail.

Installation is identical to this:




EDIT: Sorry forgot to show battery space with all the shit attached:

Work in progress. Swapping out this handguard for the Magpul go-to, have the Magpul pistol grip as well to put on. Just need to figure out the least awkward light mounting situation and I think I’m done

lovely looking MP5
 

I have my torch mounted on short piece of ris on the right side of the gun and use my thumb to push the button on the back of the torch rather than trying to find a way to mount the pressure pad. 
 

There’s also a longer version of the Cyma foregrip if you find it uncomfortable.

Amazing build. Did you use the Haga Defence adapter?

Cheers! It's the Bow Master version, I believe the one you might be referring to is the MBT style stock? Correct me if I'm wrong. I've bought a 1913 version of one of those for my GM SCAR. There's a couple of versions of this ACR type made by various companies but this one has the most solid looking furniture to me. Has a sling point as well.

 
My NGRS MP5 sneaky slut. I love this gun, shoots so well and works so flawlessly. Waiting on a longer VFC claw mount rail to move the optics back a little. 3D printed tail cap to fit the ICS folding stock, Prometheus barrel with 4uantum bucking + nub, M100 spring. I think it's right around 1j on 0.28s, sufficient for me.

Has a very "functional" pressure switch arrangement for the X400 clone, but i like it. The short rail section was machined to match the radius of the silencer, and a small screw is used to index it into the correct position.

Finally got round to fitting the Magpul handguard. Little bit of material removed with a rotary tool, fairly easy to do. Happy with the result. Odin Mini to complete the look. Only thing to consider now is whether I change the lower receiver for the Magpul SL style one, or would that remove too much of the MP5-ness of it all? ?

I jinx'd it, it broke last week. ?

Cycles but doesn't feed. I've now ordered a load of internal gubbins to fix/upgrade it.

Do you have the original standard handguard, and if so, do you want to sell it?

Since that's a Magpul stock and handguard at this point, certainly could go all-in and get the lower. If you search up images of that combo though you'll likely find some to see how it looks, the Magpul handguard is so good that it's almost the default at this point and a lot of people have the ACR type stock as well.
