Re: Looking for this MP5 MOD

I saw that photo as well and got inspired. I have have a bunch of parts on order (unfortunately back order) as soon as they come in I am going to be performing a mod similar to this.

I'll make sure I post pictures of the results...good or bad....

Re: Looking for this MP5 MOD

I got the parts.. but I'm figuring out whether I should:

- drill and scrape the foregrip
- saw off the lower tip of the A5 and grind to get the grip closest to the mag.
- don't sacrifice the right side because of the cyclone and keep the grip ergonomical.


What a dillema... it's an expensive piece of platic..

Re: Looking for this MP5 MOD

i plan to mod the shroud to my gun. Not my gun to the shroud.

So in that way i will cut the bottom piece until nessecasry, as well as the top.

Then on the cyclone side i will cut it to fit.

Pictures when im done!

Re: Looking for this MP5 MOD

it's a good thing the mp5 grip can be dissasembled in two parts. I'm planning to drill a hole in the centre for the a5 tip.

Funny, it looks cool if you only fit the upper part anddisplace the lower part...hmmmm

Re: Looking for this MP5 MOD

It looks like there are a few of us out there trying this one :-)

Good Luck to all of you and please post your results. I got my parts but I am waiting for my tools now. My father has a Dremel set he is mailing me. Once I get that you can bet that I'll be cutting that same day.

I plan on cutting off the fin on the A-5 and then cutting up the grip as needed to fit from there. I will be sacrificing the right side of the grip for the cyclone. I don't see any other way around it if you want the proper fit up tight to the magazine.

kinny you are very right about the X-7 grip. The fact that it comes in half is very helpful here.

Good Luck all!
