I found these mag clamps in a store while on a road trip for 1 dollar each, ima try them with the mp5 22lr mags , couldn’t pass them ,if anything I just spent 2 bucks

Finished up today. Have a few spots to touch up and photograph and then off to the sticker store.

Couldn’t pass it up, ZF-5. Waiting for UTG, and the pdw brace.

Have a spare AR franklin armory binary not being used, will it work in a lee sporting lower?

Guys - I need some help. I just came back from the range with a couple of friends. Everything was going great until a buddy of mine had a failure. I didn't think anything of it at the time outside of it's never done that before (I've put around 3000 rounds through this beauty) but just as I was going to take it apart, our range time ended. I was unable to pull the cocking handle back and put everything away thinking it was just brass stuck in chamber. It wouldn't fire either.

I ran it with a Dead Air Wolfman and put around 200 rounds through it at the range it before this event happened. I just got home and realized that there is a live one in there. The entire bolt carrier is stuck in battery even with the stock and trigger pack removed. Moving the charging handle down is stopped almost immediately, and it barely slides back. The hammer was in the raised position when I removed the trigger pack. I did think that maybe it would fire the round if the hammer reset/put down and I attempted to shoot it again but I can't test out that theory at home.

I've taken some pictures to help - I'm honestly at a loss and there's a live one. Not nervous about it but don't want to mess around without having better direction. Any help would be appreciated!

What SS trip slip is best, and is there is any reason not to buy a lightweight steel trip from skoprints/deeznutstactical? I know the old design of the steel trips had some issues but I am looking for something more durable then pla+

Ordered it last week and she showed up yesterday. Very excited to take her out when it warms up again (I’m a floridian trapped up north).

Are there any flash hiders that fit a PTR 9R I'm having difficulty figuring this out/confirming.

Per Manu: Barrel is 16.5" Stress relieved carbine barrel, twist 1 in 10" RH

but having hard time figuring out what might fit it, if anything.

cheers in advance

I was able to snag a Grey Team AP5 package during Black Friday for a decent price and am now looking for a mount for a red dot. I prefer low profile and would like to co-witness the irons. However, I have used raised mounts before where I was able to use the irons w/ limited field of view like the Titan Tactical raised mounts.

What mount do you recommend as I am fairly new to the platform?

I would be using this for matches and as backpack gun for travel.

Really not much of a difference length wise between the MP5 and the SP5k variant. Guess just pick up whichever you want. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I have a Zenith ZF-5P post-sample MG that I made (spare me the dog jokes, I’m an FFL/SOT), with a full auto FCG and trigger housing that doesn’t seem to mate QUITE well enough to enable good full auto function.

Life happened, got way too busy, and I have a bit more money than time to get this one running.

Anyone have a recommendation for MP5 / full auto experts? I reached the point where I just want to send it in to a pro.

I keep seeing mixed reviews here and there, so, a bit hesitant to drop that amount on the Lee Sporting lower. Anyone with large round counts on these lowers?

Hello, what does the window look like for an eotech xps on SP5K? Does the front sight show at all? I have the MFI rail on there. Wasn’t sure if i can get away with an xps or i need an exps to avoid the front sight completely. Any pictures would be appreciated. Thank you all in advance!

Took my new mac5k to the range today For the first time, shot beautifully. Got it home to clean it. Took it out of the case and this metal piece fell out of the mag well. Any idea what it is ? I already did some research and it’s not the hammer stop checked and that’s still intact. (Don’t mind the charge handle bite on the thumb lol)

Finally got my Spectre 9 in and had to go to the range to compare asap!

Both solid silencers - As someone predicted in my last post, the AB F4L is still a /smidge/ quieter, but the Spectre 9 is able to 3 lug mount, 2 inches shorter, thinner, and almost weightless.

Overall, 2 incredible cans!

looking for ideas on a new handguard setup and wanted to know what models actually work with the rifle variant. saw a picture of this handguard and was looking to see if anyone knows the brand of it

Over the next few months, I'll be attending two courses that will require 1k rounds in total (which equates to about 1500 total on my ZF.....even more if I do some shooting outside of those courses which will most definitely happen).

I'm going to order a few extractor springs and a spare extractor for my shooting supplies box.

Are there any other spare parts I should have on hand, either in general or for these upcoming courses? (to ensure I can fix any common-ish failures)

The weapon in question is a Zenith ZF5.
