Questions about MP5

[RaisinBran]

Hey fellow ASC members, I decided today to work on my old MP5 I got at the Nightmarket in Richmond couple years ago, here's the specs:

ALL plastic, okay grade better than cansoft though.

V.2 mechbox, I think it's broken.

Haven't checked the internals.

Anyway before anyone says, "get age verified and buy a new MP5" well I would but, do not have time for this, seeing how I'm tight on cash and don't really play much.

So as I was saying, I just want to make the guns internals usable because I want to have an SMG that goes with TM M4, so tell me if these would work:

Gearbox:

Motor:
http://shop.ehobbyasia.com/upgrade-p...3-p90-aeg.html

Selector plate:
http://shop.ehobbyasia.com/upgrade-p...2-gearbox.html

I haven't really upgraded any AEG's before except adding a Metal body to my TM, so tell me if i'm missing anything and if this is decent.

Thanks.

P.S. I just want to get the Mechbox working, Im pretty sure the hop up and bore works.

P.P.S. Almost forgot, it's an MP5 SD6 TM clone, don't know what Company, no ingravings.

You'll need a different trigger, a different selector switch cover set (part inside that acts as a mechanical safety), and a differently ported cylinder.

Why are you buying a complete mechbox and also a motor, when you don't even know what's wrong? Could be a $10 fix.

[RaisinBran]

No, because the Mechbox is like some clear V2 one, like the walmart ones.

Hmm, do you know where there would be an MP5 mechbox under 30 (before SH and taxes)?

[Darklen]

Good luck. Empty shells go for that or more. Also, you say your MP5 has a clear gearbox? Do you know that a standard V2 will even fit and work without being a pita?

[RaisinBran]

I'm pretty sure it'll work, because i put in my M4 mechbox and used the old Mp5 trigger and it worked.

Don't know if this will help, but these are some pics i took:




if there are more pictures that I should be showing, please tell me.

[Darklen]

Well if you already had a V2 in it and working that answers my question. To answer yours, I highly doubt you'll find a gearbox in the price range you're looking at. I just checked the classified here and complete gearboxes start at $80, going up to $400, and these are the used ones. Perhaps there's someone on the BCAC forums that can help you better.

Sorry to say, if you don't have the time to meet with an age verifier, there's not much help we can give outside of what we have.

i thought i seen JG V2 mp5 gearbox's at ehobbyasia for about 45.00 us. there a decent box.

[Darklen]

That's US dollars, roughly doublt that price by the time it gets to Canada, with exchange and shipping. And that's if CBSA doesn't decide to seize it or at least take an extended look at it.

i might be way off base and i am not sure this will help but i got my mp5 at velocity arms.maybe he (frank)can help you.

Add more torque to your AEG set up. Better than the average motor get these to run your upgraded guns that require a little more juice to get going.
