My newly acquired Classic Army MP5K have finally arrived. Purchased as a second hand from ASC, it came with a couple of stick batteries, five mags, a short silencer, an NCStar red dot sight, and an adaptor for an M4 rear stock. All of this for $280.
I have owned a Tokyo Marui MP5K previously but I decided to sell it as I was not a fan of the plastic construction. It was a fine gun and without problems but I dislike the creaks it made as I used it. This was also the same case when I had an MP5A2 as well. Nothing wrong with it, but the lack of weight and plastic body bothered me enough to get rid of it.
I was quite aware of the full metal Classic Army version of the gun but had given up hope that I would be able to find any. I guess in this case, patience paid off when I saw the gun for sale on the Airsoft Canada forum. It didn't take me long to pay for the item and a few days later it arrived at my door.
The seller had told me that the motor may have to be replaced as it made a funny noise when the gun is fired. Upon testing the gun, I did notice that it sounded like the motor would spin and then another sound as if it was spinning in reverse. It seemed to have fixed itself when I dry fired on full auto however. I will monitor the motor condition closely.
So far, I have yet to game this gun but I am eager to try it out. It will only be a matter of time until I can.
