MP5 Metal bodies/ Recievers- Which fit well?

[HunterAndy]

Looking into replacing my Plastic TM mp5 body as the foregrip slots have broken off both sides and requires some 'leccy tape to hold it on.
Seen so far 3 types of metal body i'm most concerned about the most fitting one on a mainly plastic TM mp5.
There are ICS
G&G
CA
Can't seem to find any reviews or comparisons between the three.
All I want to know is whether they all fit with TM parts well, if any have instillation problems.
And which ones seem to be the best overall
Thanks for any help,

Andy.

dont foget about the cheap option of jg that are a tm clone

i have had CA's before you will not have a problem with most parts but with the ca the hop unit is different ( B&T model) as you adjust the hop via the ejection port

I have the ICS version, and it fits the tm parts with no problem at all.

Re: MP5 Metal bodies/ Recievers- Which fit well?

I've got a MP5A5 that I built out of various manufacturers parts. It started life as a TM.
Old style CA body (not B&T)
CA metal front end
CA gearbox (from a B&T) - TM gearbox also fit with no problem.
TM hop & inner barrel
ICS lower receiver / pistol grip
CA B&T sliding stock

All fits together very well and from some reports I've read is even more solid than a new CA B&T
