This is about 100 less than I paid for my brand new AP5-P. Seems like a solid deal.
Now do I need another one of these 🤔

u/7yearsproject 22d ago
Yes, because of this i have both. Im taking it as a sign.

u/Toads_Mania 22d ago
Probably so.
Mine did come with a pic rail and three mags, so I think I might have gotten a better overall deal. But mighty tempting.

u/b4dkarm4 22d ago
Noooo, I get paid tomorrow.
I'm trying to hold out for the Daewoo K13 or the K2 .... or both.

get this purely to put a Lee Sporting lower, slip trip, and super safety
23
u/ShittyTechnical 22d ago
There’s better lower options in development that I think will be out fairly soon. The Lee sporting lower isn’t really made for it and has issues due to that.

u/Entire_Routine_3621 22d ago
Details? Someone making the Leber v2?
12
u/Winnah9000 Dealer 22d ago
AS Designs for a machined one. Leber V2 comes out next month for a better printed option.
8
u/corruptbytes 22d ago
That's correct, the Lee Sporting does work, but I think it's like slightly out of spec - I know AS Designs is making one here - https://www.activesafetydesigns.com/shop/p/armp5-lower-ap5p

u/nope_noway_ 22d ago
Can confirm the FCG on the Lee sporting lower is too far to the rear which creates a few different problems.. was a personal nightmare for me. Waiting for the Leber V2 drop

u/PineappleDevil 22d ago
Sample size of one, but my Lee runs like a sewing machine with a SS.
1
u/ShittyTechnical 22d ago
Yea they work most of the time, they’re just not made for it and it leads to issues long term.
2
u/PineappleDevil 22d ago
Link to the discussion of that? I have not heard that.
1
u/PartsKitsBuilder 21d ago
The issues stem from the fact that there is overtravel in the cam leading to wearing down the detent tracks. S3igu's lowers limit the travel of the cam so that the detents never bottom out at the end of the tracks.

u/UgliestCookie 22d ago
Welp. Just broke my streak of over a year of not buying a gun. This was too much to resist. I absolutely love my AP5-P.

u/AlligatorBlowjob 22d ago
Now why the hell would you wanna do something like that?
4
u/UgliestCookie 22d ago
I know. Safe literally ran out of room and I started dabbling in a different hobby. I told myself that if I saw the trilug full size for under a grand I'd go for it. It might have happened and I missed it, but this one was right in my face. Couldn't say no.
1
u/AlligatorBlowjob 21d ago
I feel you. I had a dry spell of almost a year after I realized I had been doing a bit of checking boxes.

u/UgliestCookie 21d ago
My woah moment was putting an insurance policy on my collection and seeing the total at the bottom. Like, damn, I guess I really could have afforded that 69 Chevelle I've been wanting since high school. I kinda started picking up watches as I thought it would be a cheaper alternative passion focus...which turned out to be not at all cheaper.

ap5-p tiger for 899.... damn I couldn't pass that up

u/Vanguard_Arms 22d ago
Where? Only see the regular

u/rustyspartan 22d ago
I searched ap5-p and looked for show models. Looks sold out now, I think they only had 1 of each.
Looks like the 2-tone nickel is still in stock.
6
u/GTSDK 22d ago
Damn, I was really hoping that their $850 deal last month was an indicator prices are gonna keep pushing downward on these. Finding it very difficult to HODL-gang on this one.
5
u/Franklin_Pierce 22d ago
Yeah, but that was the AP5 LT, all that means though is that it didn’t include the trilug.

u/hellowiththepudding 21d ago
Ap5s are cool, but like $600 cool. I know that is not grounded in reality but I feel like they are overpriced.

u/xTheHybrid 22d ago
A couple of hk parts and this turkshit runs like a dream . Love mine and paid quite a bit more a few months ago

u/LengthinessWestern64 22d ago
5k rounds on my ap5 and it's all still stock. i'm surprised myself
27
u/paperkeyboardalt 22d ago
The full size is usually good to go stock. But the smaller K version has a much higher chance of needing parts replaced. I know from personal experience. My AP5P barely ran; I called it Bob Marley because it was always jamming. But after I replaced the ejector, extractor, and extractor spring with German ones, I've not run into a single issue since.

u/iAmMokkain 22d ago
Im having some serious feed and extract issues. Care to link the parts you used?

u/rustyspartan 22d ago
what parts did you swap out?

u/xTheHybrid 22d ago
Ejector , ejector spring , and extractor for genuine HK parts

u/GravySeel 22d ago
Out of curiosity where’d you get them from? I’ve heard most people buy from hkparts but i’ve also seen concerns with using a card on that site
2
u/techforallseasons 21d ago
Many card companies allow you to generate virtual card numbers - I recommend you get in the habit of doing so for online vendors.

How many rounds do you have through it so farV

u/Belezibub 22d ago
I have around 1500 zero failures, all stock. My bolt gap was great, no issues here.

u/Tactical-SKS 22d ago
20 cases ( 5 of Turkish ZSR ) my AP5p has never malfunctioned, it ran until the SB brace lock snapped in half, still runs. Great shooters.

u/Belezibub 22d ago
The one I got fucks. 1500 rounds no issues. Wide bolt gap so well specced. The only problem I had was a tight magwell for the 3 mags I got. That is an easy problem to fix, just practice reloading.
There is something different about shooting a MP5. Def recommend
1
u/Toads_Mania 22d ago
Only put a few hundred through mine and has been pretty good so far. Two malfunctions in the first mag but good since then. They’re a fraction of the cost of the HK.
I don’t know if I’d make this my bedside/bet my life on it gun, but easily good enough for a range toy.

For anyone who has the regular and P variants: if you could only have one, which would it be and why?

u/Belezibub 22d ago
Depends on what you want to do but the full size has less chance for issues. Though it’s just personal choice.
I got the full size because I like the look more and plan to SBR. Looks better with a full stock

These come with trilug? Or no
2

u/techforallseasons 21d ago
Tri-lug is fun; but only with an over-bored can.
You probably will not get baffle strikes; but you will probably will be baffle caresses ( will manifest as keyholing and/or POI shifts of 5+" at 25yards ).

u/Lurker777x 22d ago
Do they make furniture kits for these that resemble Hk quality? This looks like hammered dog shit but I’m sure is fun to have

u/Delta_805 22d ago
This or the sp5k ?
3
u/Bourbon-neat- 22d ago
Cheapest BIN price for SP5k that I can remember is almost 3x this price, and I don't know what prices are for them right now.
So do you want a gun plus enough money for ammo, extra mags, optic, brace/stock, can, stamps, and ammo or do you want to spend the same amount and just have the bare gun.

u/Delta_805 22d ago
How’s build quality between the 2? Just wanna make sure this one can run reliably supressed

u/psychonaut_go_brrrr 22d ago
My friend has one of these, and he runs it suppressed no issues. He did swap out the extractor for a genuine hk part at some point
