convert mp5 stock to m4 stock?

[roacboach]

yeah, i'm not sure if you can actually do this.. but if anyone knows a way could you help me out?

[ProbeJax]

You want to put an M4 stock on an MP5? Or vice versa? Or do you mean literally turning an MP5 stock into an M4 stock?

[roacboach]

uh, put an m4 stock on an mp5

[TokyoSeven]

Ive seen it done, there was pictures on this site about it as well. I do not know if the thread still exists, but I can say the modifacation is possible.

[roacboach]

hm... do you know how it was done? because ive taken off my mp5 stock and i have no idea how i would even get close put an m4 stock on there

[dutchydoc]

What model is you H&K? I have put one on an MP5-k, I am guessing this is not what you have, as the way to go about it would be fairly obvious to you.

[roacboach]

uhhh tm mp5-j

[Ghillie973]

Talk to stalker, I think he had one on his mp5.

[dutchydoc]

Well the "K" has a metal plate on the rear of the gun, held by what i assume is the same two pins yours is, If the back end of both the J and the K are the same you could just buy the rear plate for the K, drill a hole in the center insert bolt and nut..job done.
Stalker has put one on as well, I dont know if he did what I just mentioned or if he devised another method to attach it.

Since I replied to his PM before I saw this thread:

Assuming the J model endcap is the same as the A5, yes. Remove all the stuff in the endcap until it's literally one piece (the cap). Find some large washers that fit the outside of the 'tube' inside the endcap, say 3-4, then add a 'penny washer' the same outside diameter but with a smaller inner diameter hole. Then you'll need a longer screw/bolt about the same size as that used in the M4 stock, long enough to pass into the endcap enough to fit a lockwasher and a nut, with 3-4 threads sticking out. Can use either Loc-Tite to hold it in place, or a second nut tightened against the other. That's pretty much it.

Enjoy!

Anyone have pics?

Mine above and Apocolypse' below (his is an MP5k PSW with the flat plate and a Crone stock mounted.)

Nice. I personally like the full stock MP5 with RAS front. Looks sexy

I think I am going to try this sometime, I just need a second stock attachment that I don't mind screwing up.

My idea is to keep the same two screw holes intact, by using them to secure on a piece of sheet steel with a carriage bolt through the middle (where Stalker describes drilling out the mounting bracket).
The bolt extends into the M4 buffer tube and attaches with the standard disc thingy that all armalites use.

This method would be entirely reversible...remove the screws and put on the old stock.

The way I've done a couple of them, there is zero modification (I never said to drill things out) to the stock parts. All are 100% reversible.
