Selecter Switch replacement

[ltjimster]

Hi again guys,

I have a ICS MP5 that has a pretty loose selecter switch plus one side has abit if the metal rod broken off and isnt really that secure. Was wondering whats the best way to sort this?

Can i just replace the selecter switch itself or do i need replace the plate as well? I've been told i need to open up the gear box to do any of this but i've never done that before

Thanks
Jamie

Anyone know how to sort this, i've tried already just taking the selecter switch out and out it back in again.

It's a tiny bit better but its still pretty loose, doesnt sound like it clicks into place properly

Re: Selecter Switch replacement

whats bit broken?

the bits your thumb hits to change ROF?

you can buy those bits on there own...

Yeah the thumb bit itself is fine, its the end of the rod that the thumb bit screws into that has broken off abit, so i would need to buy a new selecter switch because its loose at the end and gets knocked off easily lol.

But like i said the selecter switch when turning is quite loose and i can't tell sometimes if its in single or full auto unless i fire it, should i replace the selecter plate?

Pictures help

But you can change the selector switches without removing anything else.

oh yeah i figured that bit about changing the switch, that bit is a piece of P*** lol......... I know I'm going to have to go into the gearbox to change the selector plate but do you recon that would sort my loose switching between Modes??

Does it not "click" into place?

If so, you just missing the tiny nub that sites inside the switch.

ics selector switch for MP5 is rubblish imo, TM and CA have that reasuring "click" which ICS seems to lack....anyway the switch has a spring and a small catch which i think is made up with a tiny ball bearing
