Best MP5?

CA B&T series still hold their place for best overall inside/ outside quality relative to price from what I understand. G&Gs (esp the traded Umarex re-brands) are very nice guns, but a few of their parts are failure prone and suffer some body based compatibility issues.

In my head, the next MP5 I build will be a CA B&T, but since I know that I'm frugal and impulsive it will probably actually end up being a Cyma. I've just been that happy with my SD6.

Whatever you do, buy a full-stock one if the thought of wobble upsets you. I personally don't care, but I've never handled a collapsible MP5 that didn't wiggle or give evidence of future wiggling. Breast-boning an MP5 in 2nd stage around corners has it's benefits though, YMMV.

I have Cyma mp5sd6 , Cyma mp5 Pdw ,Cyma mp5k .full metal and wicked to use !Girl friend runs a classic army mp5k !

I have the Systema TW5 and so far, I can say it's probably the best looking and functioning airsoft MP5 out there. I can snipe guys with sniper rifles at long range thanks to the PTW hop up. I can tell you one problem with it, although they are PTWs, they're not like the M4/m16 PTWs you see on the market. You can't even use the same motor from a M4 PTW so when your motor gets shot, you'll have to take the motor assembly apart and fix it yourself.

EDIT:

Also, putting on a collapsible stock is going to be a pain mainly removing the charging handle to make room for the battery.

I'm a fan of the classic army mp5's and I know where a place in Canada sells them for cheap and with free shipping if you want me to pm you the website.

I've got an Ics mp5 mx pro, with 3 rnd burst, auto spring reset, split gearbox, basically a lot of bells and whistles right out of the box. The gun is great except for one thing, the selector switch is crap! our team tech had to play around with it to get it to work right and although it works again it has a lot of play and is too easy to slip out of position. I do love the 3 rnd burst especially on an mp5 as the mag cap is lower than other guns. (only a factor outdoors in hicap games). also this gun has a good rail system and comfortable stock. If you have any more questions about this model feel free to ask.

I've got a 2nd or 3rd hand purchased TM MP5, modded to a Swordfish configuration. Great CQB-sized gun. Keeping my eye out for a cheapish second TM MP5 in order to configure to a more conventional MP5 setup.



Only regrets - it doesn't get used very often .. but that's my own darn lazy fault.

thats one awsome looking MP5 I must say A close buddy of mine is looking for a MP5, He has seen and likes the ICS models a fair amount. TW5 is the best sadly he doesn't have the funds for that, Although it would be worth it preformance wise.

I had TM MP5 AEG and VFC (GBB) MP5.
I have to say that the VFC MP5 GBB is much more fun in CQB environment. The gun is fun and realistic. The AEG version of the MP5 was boring, and felt like some kind of toy.

The VFC GBB MP5 needs more tender loving care to get it running reliable. Mags need to be resealed with blue gasket marker and parts need to be upgraded to version 2 from VFC (can contact VFC for warranty parts).

It all depends on what kind of player you are and how experienced.
