alex90 Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 anyone know of any tracer options for a sd5 such as an adaptor to go in the mp5 silencer slots or a tracer hop up ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiercel Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 As far as Im aware theres no off the shelf ready options available, which is a shame because the SD series look kickass. I believe the inner barrel runs all the way to the end of the mock silencer? If so then you cant really get a silencer tracer unit. So its DIY time! From what I can see your options would be: -Make your own tracer hop unit modification, plenty of people have done this for M4s, Im not sure if there would be enough room inside an MP5 to do this. -Buy a shorter inner barrel, and use a few extra CM inside the silencer end to make your own tracer unit.

alex90 Posted August 15, 2018 Author Share Posted August 15, 2018 i did see that but cant see how it would work on a JG and looks like the silencer looks vastly slimmer plus wouldn't need the barrel as got a prommy 6.03 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you've already bought a barrel I assume you mean you've bought a full length one in which case you won't be able to run a suppressor type tracer unless you want to have the worlds longest SD5. You could look at retro-fitting the guts of a B&T tracer or a Dytac tracer (maybe even an Acetech AT1000) into the body of the original suppressor but without any dimensions I can't say if it would work. And you'd need a shorter barrel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex90 Posted August 15, 2018 Author Share Posted August 15, 2018 the standard barrel poked about and inch in to the suppressor the new one just about flush of the start of the suppressor but was seeing if anyone new of any tracer silencers that fitted the sd5/6 locking tabs or if there was some fancy hop up unit like the 3-1 madbulls ones my last options was to try and split the standard one and fit the inners of a cheapo one and see if the idea was do-able instead of spending 60+ on a acetech Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately nobody makes a hop tracer or (as far as I know) a tracer mag for the MP5 so you're stuck with whatever you can fit into that suppressor I'm afraid.

Koromiko Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 @alex90 Did you ever find a solution/tracer unit? I have the WE GBB MP5 SD and really want a tracer unit as I mainly play at night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koromiko Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Interesting.... I’m a bit of a noob so apologies if I ask stupid questions. So was yours a WE model? And fitted it to the hop-up, wondering how does the power get to it? Presumably there’s a battery pack somewhere that you have to recharge? Where does it reside within the weapon? Thanks for responding btw 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for responding btw 🙂 Nope a JG MP5SD AEG, but it can be fitted to almost any hop unit a small hole is made inside the feed tube where a Madbull or similar LED is placed. It usually means that the first shot is generally not activated as it probably has been resting in the hop unit for a few seconds. But any subsequent shots are bright UV. Power feeds off of the standard gearbox wiring, no need for another battery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koromiko Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Ah cool. Though not sure that would work for me unfortunately as the WE is a Gas Blowback, not an AEG. Might still give them a call and see if they have any clever ideas though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clumpyedge Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 If the end cap of the suppressor on the gun comes off you could do what I did on the post attached below Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
