Alternative MP5 Rail idea
30 October, 2010, 14:31
Hi there I've started this little project of mine to have a rail on the top of my MP5 to specifically fit a Eotech 553, I've cropped the rail of of an old M4 body and now I have no Idea what to do next.
It fits I know but, there is one problem, How would i get the Rail to stay on the Top of the MP5?
Here is some pictures of the Project so far:

I've thought of it, but it's not as long as I've seen and handled one before, they don't fit an 553 Eotech last time i checked.

Re: Alternative MP5 Rail idea
But the crappy cyma one has a seperate rail on the top so you don't have to dremmel either the scope or rail for the fit.

Re: Alternative MP5 Rail idea
Most of the other rails are single height and the attachment legs get in the way of your scope fitting properly withought loads of messing arround...Dont the cyma ones have a good sized rail?

Re: Alternative MP5 Rail idea
Ah c**p I went ahead and cut the rail ( I'd done it before I posted the thread)
I feel like an idiot, is there a way to stick the two pieces back together?

Re: Alternative MP5 Rail idea
Just buy one of the cyma ones...
Shadow you can see on yours that the rail is higher than the attachment feet. You may think it is obvious but if you look at the CA one they are more suited to singe or double scope ring type attachments.
