So I just got my CA MP5 full stock yesterday and was excited and nervous about putting this thing on. Got the dremel out today and finished fitting everything together nicely. All that's left is to make an adaptor to hold both the stock and the receiver together and strengthen it (right now its just friction fit and a bit of overlapping). This will probably be started soon.
Both (minor) modification to the gun and the stock was needed. Basically I found the gun was too big for the stock to slide over properly. Solution: Dremel off half of the tabs blocking the groove, slightly widen the groove, and slightly widen the opening of the stock. Took approx. 2 hours however much of the time spent was checking and rechecking for interference.
I must say, I am in love with this gun now! It absolutely amazing to shoulder and wield around. Hopefully a CQB game will present itself soon.
Immediate future plans (when funds available) are to put a longer tightbore and hide it with a silencer. Hopefully a new cylinder will not be needed.
Here's a link to a picture of it.

That is wicked man. MP5K is one of my top 3 fav guns of all time. Good job on the full stock.. its a wicked CQB weapon now.. large battery rules.
It should have been a gun that a brand like Classic Army or ICS should have made, you know, metal body, better internals.. large battery.
The gun is twisted. enjoy it.
