This is a MP5 I just finished today. It has the plexiglass block, the side window is plexiglass. It is all made from pvc eccept for the wood forgrip and butt. I used a 12 in. airsoft barrel on this one. The air gun is hooked up to 2 elbows and a line that goes to the block.

looks good, Im always happy to see BBMGs look at least something like a real gun.


Now all you need is a portable Air source and you could hop into a CQB match and own.

That looks very nice! looks like it would be a TON of fun to play with...

Probably up there with some of the better airsoft BBMG's I have seen, you must be then envy of your friends with a gun like that :D especially since you built it yourself.

EDIT: 400th Post! Happy 400 post day to me!

Nice work!
I love MP5's :)

Maybe consider an orange tip to avoid trouble and misunderstandings.


Besides the looks:
How well does it work?

Shoots great. I'll have to post some videos if the weather gets nice. This has the same air set up as the MP 40 I made last year. It has a 1/8 in. tube that runs to the elbow that is screwed in the block. I think it gives it more pressure, but I could be wrong.

When I saw this MP5 destroyed on my prototype I cried :(.

This is another beautiful BBMG by Stephen Holidays... it looks so bloody realistic too! U've just like totally inspired me to actually attempt to make my guns look real... cept my construction skills are pretty dim but it's a good inspiration.

A lot of areas don't require and orange tip.

Very sharp work indeed! The handle/grip detail is well thought out...I love all the woodwork...and extra credit for the chamber window install.

Doink....just hit my favorites list... :wink:

Thank for your input. Now that the pistol grip with the blow gun worked out well, I may have to rework some others I made with this type of grip.
Any ideas on a portable set up for this? Maybe a 20 oz co2 tank regulated to 120 lbs? I've seen NeoSpuds set up.
