swatti Posted April 19, 2014 Report Share Posted April 19, 2014 Battery in mag. Link to post Share on other sites
Horsem4n Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 the way I think they'll go is a battery forgrip. You guys remember the jg mp5ras? It was front wired and came with a forgrip that had enough room for an 8.4v mini battery. though, a 1300mah lipo nunchuck will fit in that heat shield. Link to post Share on other sites
Rob15 Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 Im also VERY worried of the battery-space and very sad they didnt go the battery-in-mag way. I shall explore that option and have very high intent on bying the AEG. Didn't ARES do that once and everyone said what an idiotic idea it was? I think they were wise to not put the battery in the mag, it'd also lower the capacity which would put more people off. Don´t you have the new vss vintorez foldable stock that stores the battery in the "silenced" barrel? do the same here and a 7,4 lipo is small enough. That seems a sensible idea, a short mock suppressor to fit on the threaded barrel with a lipo in should be fairly easy to do and could be made to fit flush against the heatsheild.

DarkLite Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 I'd imagine a bit of creative milling would allow for a lipo to fit in the heatshield. I'll be watching this. Closely. Link to post Share on other sites
Brigg Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 I imagine it would just be something like this, the forward grip that was already available for tec-9s: http://www.avguns.com/accessories/forward-grips/tec9.jpg A small battery could fit in there easily. It does kind of ruin the look though. Of course, Im not really interested in an AEG one, Im looking forward to the Maruzen clone version. But Im always happy to see companies take a break from the "slightly different M4 festival" and make something else. Link to post Share on other sites
GI0VANNI Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 As the Pope inspired me too, I am all about the "creative milling" or if no other way the silencer, but let the thing it´s perfect "bad ask" looking please. Link to post Share on other sites
kojak Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 I wouldn't say it ruins the look, but almost every photo I've seen with the foregrip is of the MP-9 version with a wire stock: If you're on a specialty weapon like a bolt action or RPG, a compact AEG secondary can really save the day when it all goes wrong. I've done it with a GBB MP7, but carrying enough ammo for the average (airsoft) firefight is just not practical. So I'm wondering--is this really that much smaller than an MP5K?

bobthebuilder Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 I wouldn't say it ruins the look, but almost every photo I've seen with the foregrip is of the MP-9 version with a wire stock: I think that may be a legal thing. If I remember right under US law, fitting a foregrip to something classed as a pistol makes it an NFA item, I think putting it in the "short barreled rifle" class. Since the MP-9s are NFA items anyway, it doesn't matter, as the stock makes it an SBR whatever you do with the rest of it. Link to post Share on other sites
Habakure Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 Not loving that forward grip tbh. Link to post Share on other sites
GI0VANNI Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 I insist, for a full AEG internals with front grip would stay one of my 3 MP5Ks, not proprietary mags, plenty of space for batteries and is an H&K, "no compromise". I would like the look if a nasty naked pistol of doom, not that. Anyway if must have the front grip and stock, may it be: BerettaPM12S.jpg Link to post Share on other sites

FireKnife Posted April 21, 2014 Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 Maybe it is too much watching of Miami Vice but even with the fore-grip I still like it. If it means good capacity and a stable place to store the battery I am all for the fore-grip. 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites
swatti Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 While that grip may just be the salvation for this gun, i must admit it looks eyes-bleeding-ugly... Depending on the magwell i will be exploring the battery-in-mag option or stuffing a battery under the heat-shield. I saw a picture of "rounded" lipos once meant to fit a tube of sorts with electronis in the middle taking most space. Still, im bying this. Was there an ETA when its out?

Hopewell Posted April 26, 2014 Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 There is all this talk of this being smaller than an MP5k, but after a bit of a think and a google, it didn't take long to find pics of the (proprietary) gearbox. All of a sudden it hit home that if anything, this will be larger than the MP5k. With a proprietary gearbox on this I would be put off to be honest. I would however be interested to see whether it is a V2 or a V3 style trigger! Link to post Share on other sites
swatti Posted April 26, 2014 Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 I dont see an issue with a unique gearbox, its less likely or takes longer to clone and basic TM gearboxes just wont fit into every gun. Also every new gearbox is an oppertunity to turn another gun into an AEG. As for the trigger, im interested if its going to be a microswitch. Also still wondering where im going to place the mosfet... Link to post Share on other sites
Horsem4n Posted April 26, 2014 Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 gun size wise, the guns may have similar lengths, but the tech 9 is definitely shorter height wise. i photoshooped together a size comparison. slightly different angle and i adjusted scale based on adult head sizes, but you can clearly see how small the tech 9 is to the mp5k. of course, there is a little difference between RS guns and AEGs, but thats mainly just width.

renegadecow Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 Might be better to use mag width as reference. I've seen people with enormous heads. Link to post Share on other sites
swatti Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 Lets just wait this gets here and il put it side by side with my PDW Is there an ETA when its released? Link to post Share on other sites
GI0VANNI Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 from guns.ru: MP5K Caliber: 9x19mm Luger/ParaWeight: 2 kg without magazineLength (stock closed/open): 325 mmBarrel length: 115 mmRate of fire: 900 rounds per minuteMagazine capacity: 15 or 30 roundsEffective range: about 25 meters About the intratec tec 9 no luck there but form the user´s manual: http://www.nazarian.no/images/wep/205_tec9.pdf 10.5 or 12.5 inches depending on the model: 26,670 cms or 31,750 cms. So, for barely 2 cmd and thinking about the proprietary mags and store for the battery, would keep the mp5k if needs a front grip. Link to post Share on other sites
