H&K MP5 22lr (Field Strip & Reassembly)

[@joeb9763]

Great tutorial! Just bought one for my kid. Thank you for the training

[@crookedwookie8782]

This was terrific, thanks. I wanted to strip and clean mine after the first trip to the range and I was terrified to pull it apart and not be able to get it back together again. 😅 You made this really painless.

[@masterpieceinprogress143]

How do you like it? Any malfunctions? What kinda ammo you using? How many rounds you put through it? I really want to get one because 22lr is my favorite caliber to shoot and this thing is just too cool.

[@crookedwookie8782]

@@masterpieceinprogress143 it was pretty much the most fun I've had at the range, ever. I put about 250 rounds through it, a combination of CCI, which is pretty good stuff, I believe. I had maybe two malfunctions, either failures to clear or failure to feed, I forget. And my first time with it, I can't swear I didn't rack it wrong somehow - weak HK slap maybe, lol. I put a claw mount and a good Holosun on it (green dot cost about as much as the MP5 did) and it is a tack driver. 10-15 yards, it was just making one big hole wherever I aimed it, it was an absolute laser. Also found a video on KZbin and it's incredibly easy to break down and clean, which is a plus. Let me know if you have any other questions.

@@crookedwookie8782 How has your MP5 held up after seven months? I'm really thinking about buying one as my first gun and would like to know what you think of it. Would you still recommend?

[@deadstig345]

​@@eduardoprisbrey9157Not OP but I've had mine for almost 4 months and it's my first gun. I've put almost 1000 rounds through it with no cleaning, and it only malfunctioned when I ran armscor ammo through it. I put CCI and federal ammo through it and it fires every single time. I'd definitely recommend this for your first gun, ammo is cheap at around 8¢ a round if you buy bulk, you can't go wrong with it!

[@tomd1435]

Buy the pistol version !!! already set up for threaded suppressor, use SB Tactical (FS1913) folding brace on a 5 slot 1913 rail mounted on the butt cap! Looks and works great. No SBR !!!stamp

[@8u2b]

Tom D do you know of any videos showing how to attach the pic rail to the butt cap? TIA

[@BigBoss_670]

Thank you. Just got mine today and the manual was showing the pistol version. My stock was on pretty well and I didn't wanna risk breaking anything.

How do you add a suppressor?

[@cmar3576]

This is something I'd be curious to find out about. I don't run anything suppressed myself, but I know alot of folks who do. I'll look into it and see if anyone I know is running one suppressed , if so I'll post back. 👍

The rear pin on mine is EXTREMELY hard to remove. I think the holes in the upper unit are misaligned. I'm tempted to try to drill it out and make it fit better, but that's probably not a good idea. As it is now, I have to use a screwdriver or punch tool to push it out all the way.

Not that I know of. The pistol version looks more like the classic mp5. You can put a brace on them as well.

Mine (pistol) is brand new, didn’t have the chance to go try it yet. I’m worried as the charging handle is extremely difficult to rack back, like very very hard. Did you have this problem ? Any advice ? Thanks.

[@cmar3576]

Thats awesome!! I want the pistol version. At first mine was a little stiff but by no means hard to manipulate. It should loosen up as you shoot and it gets broken in. Make sure it's lubed up good. If it's new I would think its lubed up but can't hurt to check. Hope you have fun with it. 👍
