The only thing good about being cash broke is that is when the deals come along.

Some LE department has been sitting on a dozen of these (HK94s) since the early 80s.

I just nabbed 2 of them for myself.



When I free up some cash these are going to the smith for installation of a factory 3 lug threaded barrel, registered sear install and a complete refinish and tune up.

$2,400 each.

I've got a few pre86 transferrables cached away.

Post samples sears are mainingless unless you are a SOT manufacturer, which I'm not, and you may as well buy post sample factory guns rather than install them in pre89 imports which then cannot be owned by anyone.

Same deal with sears from pre86 dealer samples. The sear itself isn't registered in the case of dealer samples, the receiver is. Installing a sear from a pre86 dealer sample would only create a post sample machine gun that nobody technically owns.

So how does that work?  You have registered sears with paperwork for them and you can drop them into the receiver?  I thought the receiver had to be registered.  Or does it become registered when the thing is assembled?
If not, and you dropped a semi-fire control into the receiver afterwards would it be an illegal SBR b/c of the shorter bbl?

This is kind of off-topic, but does anyone sell fake suppressors for the HK94s and clones other than the ones you see on all the new BW5s these days? The kind I'm thinking of are the integrated suppressors that use a new handguard. I found a site that sold this kind a ways back but can't remember anymore.

Registered receiver is in the trigger pack. Swap packs and you are ready to roll.

When I have the work done I will register them as SBRs as well so they will be good to go if I don't have the pack in them.

How about leaving 'em as-is?

Reason being, real HK94's aren't exactily growing on trees, and the number of them in original configuration/able to be transferred as a Title I weapon are shrinking, because people pony the money up for one and then have it re-barreled with a 3-lug, turning it into an SBR...

I love my HK94 and I've considered re-barreling with a 3 lug and having a fake supressor tacked onto it for legality...but I don't like the thought of totally dorking it up, especially when, honestly, it doesn't need it. The barrel's gotta be 16" regardless...

Admittidly, I don't have any sears (illegal here, unless someone made some that qualify for C&R ), so I don't have that temptation.

OK, so the SBR issue is a reality...but you've planned for it.  I don't know the NFA rules very well at all.  I think I'm going to get my first stab at NFA stuff with a suppressor or two (22LR and/or an AR).

POS. Melted around the muzzle area after a couple hundred rounds...also required removing any sling.

All the "transferrable" MP5 are ALL HK94 registered sear or registered receiver conversions.

There are NO pre 68 transferrable MP5s.

I wouldn't exactily call it junk...I mean, it DID fit very well, it DID stay on, it DID look awefully nice.

It just isn't exactily designed or meant to be..you know, shot

It probably would be just fine if you don't go through 2-3 mags in a string like I do, and then let it cool down for a bit...part of the thing is that it distances your hand from the slim grip (mine has the slim foregrip) so you don't feel the heat when you shoot a lot...so going through 3-4-5 mags in a string is suddenly possible because, well, you don't feel the heat.

Problem is, that much heat...it'll start to melt the plastic around the muzzle area of the barrel.

I'm not saying don't buy one...just saying that if you DO get one, understand it's limitations. It does look real sweet. One guy thought I had a real can on it, last time I took it out with that shroud on it..the 16" barrel + 9mm = pretty damn quiet for a centerfire cartridge. Probably still need to wear ears, but it's not very loud at all.

Hell, I'd need to buy an HK94 or a clone before I even consider buying the shroud .

Is the actual fake suppressor some sort of metal with the rear shroud a cheapo plastic?
