Grumman Posted June 15, 2007 Report Share Posted June 15, 2007 Just wondering, do any manufacturers make the older straight MP5 magazines. I hear the real steel versions were dropped for the curved ones because the curved magazines feed better. I seem to remember seeing an airsoft version on a gas SMG, however I'm after AEG magazines. Suppose it's the classic look that's appealing, they also look quite good and I'm fond of UMG mags. on that note, would UMG magazines fit in a MP5 magwell? Also, MP5/10 mags would be cool!

Samm Posted June 15, 2007 Report Share Posted June 15, 2007 Mass produced? No I'm afraid. Only custom jobs. Link to post Share on other sites
Tom Andrews Posted June 15, 2007 Report Share Posted June 15, 2007 I'm pretty sure straight mags won't fit into curved mag magwells. Link to post Share on other sites
casey_cole Posted June 15, 2007 Report Share Posted June 15, 2007 I have seen people hacking the bottom off a curved mag, and replacing it with an Uzi or UMP or other straight mag. Normally it looks cack - but maybe a complete bondo'd rebuild would look better. CC Link to post Share on other sites
