Armourpiercing Posted July 27, 2013 Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 Don't quote me on this, but all the MP5's that I have encountered that were not designated the "Asia edition" all seemed to light strike on anything other than 134a or what the Americans dub as duster gas on a warm day or warm full mag. Could this mean that it is for use in lower power countries (Japan)? Seems logical. AP. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
1st Commando Posted July 27, 2013 Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 Not sure mate as I use only propane/ green gas /top gas in mine and it's a Uk version and light striking has not been an issue Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Armourpiercing Posted July 27, 2013 Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 Make the mag warm and try. Even on hfc144 gas if the mag is direct from a warm place it won't fire for the first few shots. Also, you'll notice that the hammer hitting forward just feels limp. AP. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
L2E Posted July 28, 2013 Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 Never happened with my mp5. I live in Houston, TX USA and it gets to 100 degrees Fahrenheit for 3 months straight...also zero problems with bolt stopping followers...

1st Commando Posted July 28, 2013 Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 I was using it at training last week in direct sunlight at 90 degrees and the only issue i had was a double feed from the one mag that still has the horrid extended follower but i'll get a new hammer spring asap anyway Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rusTORK Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 (edited) My small research about VFC MP5K GBB and Folding Stock for it. Price: HK PDW Folding Stock for MP5K (Real Steel): $299.95 (HKParts.net) Choate PDW Folding Stock for MP5K (Real Steel, CLONE): $124.95 (HKParts.net) GWS HK MP5K PDW (Custom): $N\A (by request) They are used Choate Stock (that's why so small photo on their Facebook page). Diffirence between HK and Choate: Marking in the circle. HK have got "HK" marking, then Choate have got "Choate Tool Corp". It's also interesting to try fit Folding Stock from Marui MP5K PDW... ALSO, almost forgot about... first spot of MP5K PDW was from ACTION. And of photo was MP5K PDW with Foldign Stock. Edited August 20, 2013 by rusTORK Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rusTORK Posted August 22, 2013 Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 Got answer from VFC: Hello, VFC’s MP5K GBB can fit the real MP5K PDW folding stock. But Marui can’t fit on VFC’s MP5K GBB VFC service Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rusTORK Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 More updates: We will release the MP5K PDW, but we not sure that. Release the MP5K PDW folding stock KIT. VFC service Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Armourpiercing Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 I'll put a picture or two of my MP5K with folding stock tomorrow shall I? I'm going all out & doing an HK94 next! (chopped to match the 80's movies) AP. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 The cool thing is you can whack in an LED upgrade cell in it and it can compete with modern Surefires e.t.c. I am yet to find a way to boost the lumens on old school Surefires like the P114. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Armourpiercing Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 MP5K with real H&K stock & real 30 round magazine. The bolt assembly is actually about an inch shorter than the regular version & you cannot use azimuth bolt guides (but with the VFC MP5 K you don't need them. I have tried numerous times to make the FE aluminum loading nozzle work but in all four of my VFC MP5's its just plain shocking, really awful. The blowback is just sloppy with it installed & even on red gas it's just farty. I have tried different set ups internally & extrernally but it's just total junk. Ready fighter seems to be the the best so far along with the VFC MP5K loading nozzle. AP. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Armourpiercing Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 I'll add to that, the MP5k bolt assembly will work in the MP5 A2 series but not the other way round. AP. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
calbur20 Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 What's your verdict so far on the MP5K? Good? Bad? Meh? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Armourpiercing Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 (edited) Brilliant. Bolt has wider side sections at front and rear. Comes with a copper guide on one side as standard. Loading nozzle is way tougher. Bolt head is simpler but wider. Power is below 330 on green. Accuracy and hop are the same but it's not meant to be a ranged weapon. AP.
