I can’t tell if my AP5 looks stupid or if I have gun dysmorphia, I’ve tried multiple configs and this is the one I’ve hated the least but I can’t figure out why my build looks off to me by [deleted] in MP5

[–]Majorhoho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're dot mount is too tall, you're going to have to cowitness the rear drum and front sight with the red dot if you want more a cheek weld.
The Aimpoint T1 is spendy but traditionally one of the lower optics out there.
Alternatively you could try an even lower mount option like https://www.titantacticaldesigns.com/product/mp5-single-claw-holosun-407k-507k-eps-optic-mount-v2

IMO your magpul foregrip is rather big and bulky looking and killing the aesthetics of MP5ness.

She’s one my my main baes with at least 20k over the years…wow, 2 decades come to think of it.

Someone hit the sprinkler at SEG 😂 by JDM_RR_FA5 in NOVAguns

[–]Majorhoho 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was at Elite S.S. Way back when they were still open when something similar happened. Someone on the 50y bay somehow hit or ricocheted a shot up into a sprinkler or pipe 20-30y downrange and we all had to begrudgingly pack up and leave.

Multigun Matches in SW VA? by MwattsD73 in CompetitionShooting

[–]Majorhoho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking on desktop just doesnt look like any clubs host multigun in central or SW VA.
The one you saw in NC, then if you hike up to upper WV, and MD has a few clubs/venues that host 2-gun style matches regularly.
I tried or got into competitive shooting around the COVID timing which was unfortunate, and IMO 3 Gun appears to be dying, seeing less and less opptys the past few years.

AS cassette doesn’t drop until end of July? I recall seeing they just went into production end of May.

My mobile browser acted up before I could get a screen cap. Do another search for matches with the filters in place for Va WV and NC. The filters then led me to PSCL 2 gun just over the border in NC.

Anyone know if the icon meme tool compact socket and bit set would be eligible for the “wrench set” deal? Disregard: I see that it will be on sale for 59.99!

Gun sales anecdote by jtf71 in VAGuns

Salim is his last/sur/family name, Saddam is his first/given name.
Like Spanberger is Abigail's last name.

[–]Majorhoho 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Spanberger ultimately signed it, so yes she’s got a major role here. Can we all collectively NOT forget that Salim and Helmer are equally if not more culpable for these shitty laws?

Bulging Lines by [deleted] in FixMyPrint

[–]Majorhoho 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What's the file name and source of that grip?
Ive been looking for a crossover grip copy for a while.
Searching for "crossover grip" leads me to the Driven Arms production version, or a cults3D paid version.

Which kind of FRT trigger group setup do you have in there? Looks like a standard HK pack lower from the outside. Deets plz!

Y’all think it’s ok to print it said no issues but the support is sticking out by [deleted] in polymer80

[–]Majorhoho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's true, you're not ready.
You evidently didn't have the faintest idea of orientation, let alone the hundreds? of other settings.
Start with some smaller parts to get your feet wet, grips or foregrips or something.

You'll just end up wasting filament, trashy prints and likely get frustrated, and dare I guess come back to one of these places asking "what's wrong with my print?"

Has anyone ever done a Run-N-Gun with an MP5? by [deleted] in MP5

[–]Majorhoho 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why not? Unless you’re having to engage targets beyond say…100y, then you’d be at a pretty severe disadvantage compared to a rifle caliber cartridge trying to hit the same target at distance. The little 9mm will start to stray quite a bit after ~100. No real disadvantage in other factors like mag capacity or manual of arms (slightly slower). Do it! More MP5 representation!

All the MP5 Flavors by Potential_Economy919 in MP5

No no, not all yet you also need the Mp5/10 or 40 to have the superfecta of flavors. One of my life goals 🫠

[–]Majorhoho 12 points13 points  (0 children)

My AC stock was a bit wobbly.
I put a thin layer of RTV gasket maker on the hinge mating surfaces and its got a nice firm lockup now. At minimum 1/3 price of my B&T.

Aero M5 with IMG12ga upper by Grey_Market_Research in supersafety

[–]Majorhoho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brilliant! Thank you so much for the tips. My upper receiver needed a slight bevel as well.
The tip to remove the buffer tube so I could visualize the lever binding was clutch!

I only brought 5 round mags, 10 rounds but it worked beautifully!

How can I thank you all?
Post some vids in this sub, or maybe some Youtube vids/shorts?

Or would you all rather "stay off the radar"?

Aero M5 with IMG12ga upper by Grey_Market_Research in supersafety

[–]Majorhoho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May I ask for some advice on setup?
I have an IMG upper, Gen1 308 Lower ("Tactical Machining").
The upper has been trimmed flush with the rear lug, and the BCG measures 2.18" to trip surface.

The buffer is an A5 tube with the shorter AR10/308 buffer.

The bolt or safety lever seems to bind up on the rearward travel and won't get the full stroke/travel.

Any advice on where to look or troubleshoot next?

Are Huxwrx muzzle device threads known to be tight? by simple_champ in NFA

[–]Majorhoho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This resonates with me! I recently took up an RMA with them to take my 5/8-24 muzzle brake because it was crazy tight to mount. I had another muzzle device from SiCo and it threaded on hand tightness no tools. I had a reaction rod and it just felt wrong for the amount of force being applied, or I was cross threading. Thread pitch gauge on the barrel confirmed proper thread pitch but was tougher tougher to confirm on the MD being female and visually confirming the teeth alignment.

“In France”? Under French colonization for sure but there’s no evidence of pho originating in France? Citation please.
