Re: upgrading mp5
If you're looking at going the whole hog- go for a tightbore barrel.
Also, if you have upgraded the FPS you might want to upgrade the gears and piston... and their neighbours. As the rise in power from stock could damage the rifle!
Also, I recommend some 13:1 ratio gears and a high speed/high torque motor... a sub-machine gun with high ROF is always fun!
You might want to get someone with know how to help if you have no experience. Drop me a PM if you might, certainly point you in a few directions.

Re: upgrading mp5
From experience on my TM MP5, I'd recommend a Madbull Black Python II tightbore with a Systema hop rubber. On the shooting range at ****** *****, I can nail the 50m target quite happily - and the gun only does about 290fps. After that point, the range does drop off quite quickly though.
Probably should point out mine is not a CA - I'm not sure if the CA uses the same hop setup as TM or not, so your results may vary.
