SP5 Thread

[Dog1]

Forgot to mention... Magpul does make a 50 round drum mag for the SP5 as well! Does add a decent amount of weight though.

It's heavy but it's not unwieldy. It's also very reliable. I've never had an issue with mine after almost 1500 rounds through it both suppressed and unsuppressed. It's somewhat of a pain to load, but it works

This is a long time “want” of mine, it will be mostly a range toy but once I get a suppressor for it there is a good chance it will become my HD gun.

It’s an H&K SP5 which is the civilian version of the MP5 sub machine gun in 9mm.

Also it’s bought and paid for gentlemen, should hopefully show up Wednesday!

Congrats! I love mine, but I can’t really help answer your question about accessory recommendations. I like the MP5 style gun in stripped down old-school mode. I put a vanilla A2 stock on mine after SBRing it and called it a day.

My brother got a factory b&t sbr recently and the stock for his has a recoil dampening system built into the stock. I'm guessing that's part of the expense. I don't know much about it (he has a billet lower on his that takes the b&t mags) but got to shoot it a bit today as I'm visiting where he lives. We popped my Obsidian 9 on it from my Scorpion as he wanted to see how much blow back he would get shooting lefty.

A APC9SD was considered and available, but it just does not have the “cool” factor an H&K does for me. Plus the B&Ts are just straight blowback and for some reason on a gun that expensive it just bothers me. B&T just adheres to the same pricing structure as H&K for stocks, all APC9s come with the buffer you just move it from stock to stock is my understanding. That being said for $4k before the stamps it’s a great way to get a true SD gun that makes all 9mm quiet

Yep, blowback but with the hydraulic assist in the stock. The stocks including the buffers are just silly money.

Precision Arms (in Indiana) has one-position F stocks for 574.99, and lots of other HK parts (they are a preferred dealer).

499 on GB from the same vendor. At least the same name.

Even better! Good catch- not sure why there’s a mismatch. I’ll stick with my boring but very functional A2 stock, however.

We are officially doing this MP5 now gentlemen, though I will be putting a Scout Light Pro Mini on the side since all serious defensive use firearms need a light

Bonus points (darn I wish we could still give rep) to whomever recognizes the movie

Sicario?

Sicario?

You sir are correct!

Mine is wearing a collapsible stock, yes I sbr'd it, a Holosun 510 and a Silencerco 9k.
I shoot nothing but 147gr out of it and it is stupid quiet.

I have a B&T APC45 Pro and have had a couple of CMMG Banshees in .45. The APC45 is a softer shooter, despite being straight blowback, versus the radial delayed blowback of the Banshees. That integrated buffer makes a big difference. There is absolutely a reason that B&Ts are that expensive and I’m even a huge fan of the Banshees!
