| Where can i find a GSG-5 scope mount? |
| in the other GSG thread there are tons of poeple that show links for the scope mounts they got...i got one off ebay...in general people are buying mounts made for airsoft as they are way cheaper, i got one made by UTG, solid aluminim, good wuality, only problem with airsoft is some of the real cheap mounts are made of that shit pit metel that snaps realy easily... |
|
In the world of airsoft, brands actually matter like they do with real steel firearms... Would you buy a no brand name, super cheap $30 lower receiver off of gunbroker??? Big brands like Marui, Classic Army, Hurricane, Guarder, ICS, etc use decent metal and production methods. |
|
This looks awful inexpensive at $9. NcSTAR MP5 / Setme Scope Mount Low MDMP5 NcStar MP5 Mount |
How about leapers (UTG). i see people useing the mount in the other thread, and it seems like its works fine. Also, i ordered it from airsplat, as im cancelling my order with botach due to hearing horror stories. |
YEP, thats the exact one, i got mine off ebay for 19.99 shipped, but its the UTG low profile, from the info i have read they use good strong metel, not the shitty stuff...hopefully it fits, and i also think it looks nicer then the other styles. |
Thats the one I got at the show this weekend which looks like this mounted 
|
what brand name of retractable stock is that? or what airsoft gun brand name did you pull it off? |
45B10, I got your email. Thanks for the info. Now if you would be so kind as to let us know what brand of stock that is and if it interfers with the ejection port, that will help us too. |

The stock came off a HFC MP210 Pump Action Model # HA210. Its about 1/2 metal. The stock arms are metal, but the receiver cap is plastic as well as the stock pad. Youll have to use the screw that came with the toy to mount it to the GSG, but its sturdy once its on. The only positions are open and closed and the arm covers part of the ejection port like the rest do.Im gonna ream it out a tad so I can atleast use the screw that came with the GSG. For all those that have wondered a real MP5 stock WILL NOT work and cant be made to work the best I can tell. Im a armorer for the Army and have my gunsmith license that was issued with my dremel tool  but I wont chop a 300+ dollar stock to make it work. Hope this helps some.

Would you recommend that mount? (I'll send you an IM also) |
I just received it from Opticsplanet.com. At $9 and with other items that included free shipping, it was worth it just to see it. It feels solid and good. The brand is NCStar. I'd recommend it. |
its to long and would interfere with the cocking lever.
I ordered it from www.airsoftgi.com $50 but it is solids aircraft aluminum and fits like a glove. |
ebay also has the ones made by spider-fire that are about $15 shipped. they look/feel exactly the same without the tmarkings. I have one that i ordered from ebay but didn't want to take the chance on it was pot metal. honestly i can't tell the difference. they both feel the same. now i haven't mounted the spider-fire one so i couldn't tell you if it would break or not. the only bad thing was it took about 2 weeks to get here from ebay. |
