But good GBBR doesn't need that, my GHK AK works flawlessly without that. Big cons is material quality of nozzle in AK, if you put RA tech nozzle, you have no problem with that.
Great overview! I also got mine in germany a few weeks ago. The f mark is very small on the lower grip pack. U cant really see it at all. We didnt get the cool proof marking but have individual serial numbers. I hope i can get my hands on cool stuff when zib reopens on the 19th. :) 👋🏻 i was lucky and got a real slim line handguard from old police stock.
Great overview! Just subscribed. Btw, which vfc gun would you say is louder, the mp5 or the 53? Im hoping adding a foam suppressor will quite down the muzzle report a bit but if the action is very loud then might not be worth it
I have a holster for a browning hi power , I purchased it 1988 on camp and used it for plain clothes duties. It’s not the military issue one which was cheap and awful but a good quality leather one.
Hey! I've received mine just some days ago, and i have been wondering, if it is normal that the Front Sight Post (and a little bit of the outer barrel) has some (very little) wobble out of the box? I have tried to tighten the screw underneath the cap of the Front Sight Post, but it is already well tightened already.
Then something might be loose on my end. I have spoken to some users on the Heavy Recoil Club Discord Server and the issue is known (luckily normal?). Some possible fixes are to either remove the front cap of the FSP (there's a pin on the side which needs to be pressed in) and tighten the screw underneath it, or: Loosen the screw, remove it and squeeze something thin and stury (like a sheet of metal) between between the rod and FSP. I have yet to try the second possible solution.
Great video, I've got to try the VFC G3 and loved the kick off it. How does the 53 compare to it with kick, is it less? Also are the mags as hard to seat in as with the G3?
@@HTISAirsoft cheers, great to have someone who can compare as having a tough time finding one in stock, never mind getting hands on to test. Would it have similar kick to the VFC 417 if you've tried that? Seems the G3 has more feedback then most.
No the MP5 sd has a different cocking tube and front sight unit to regular MP5 and HK53 . You would need to cut off the hk53 front end and weld on an sd front end
You can indeed..... Actually I'll have to check that way around . I'll come back to you on that. The external parts you can for sure but I doubt the internal pack can as the mp5 lacks the bolt stop lever on the mags
"Look GHK, return spring" shots fired lol
Oops did that stay in 😜

Superb piece of kit. Nice Browning HP too👌🏻
Thanks, it's lovely but it's not great as a sidearm compared to more modern GBB pistols aadly

Both of those are very similar in sound . The FAL is by far the loudest

UK camp ? If so that will be Paul Evers /PWL . The US tended to go for bianchi or uncle mikes for leather

I've not noticed any wobble at all to be honest

@-Dezhen worth trying those and see if that fixes it . I must have been lucky with mine
Hi mate silly question but how do you take the muzzle device off? is it a case of lifting the pin and unscrewing?
thanks
Just unscrew, it's pretty tight though. The clip just tensions it to the rachet on the barrel
@@HTISAirsoft legend mate thanks I wasn’t wanting to bollock anything
@@TFU774 no problem

The mags are easier to insert although I'm well practiced with the G3 anyway. The recoil is certainly a little less on the 53 but faster cycling

@@mkblaze8590 the G3 kicks more than the HK417 in my experience but the HK53 feels a little less
Do you know if you can fit sd handguard and suppressor to the vfc hk53?
No the MP5 sd has a different cocking tube and front sight unit to regular MP5 and HK53 . You would need to cut off the hk53 front end and weld on an sd front end
Do i spy a Gerber DMF Tanto in the top left?
You do indeed. Very handy knife
can I use the hk53 trigger group on mp5?
You can indeed..... Actually I'll have to check that way around . I'll come back to you on that. The external parts you can for sure but I doubt the internal pack can as the mp5 lacks the bolt stop lever on the mags
Can I ask where you got the back pack please
It was a surplus item I've had for years. They are super rare to find
@@HTISAirsoft saving for a 53 want period kit to go with it
@@johngriffiths3309 oh nice, it's super nice
does it have steel internals?
I'll update you shortly with a list of what's steel
@@HTISAirsoft hope its fully steel like the gen3 416a5/d
Is that a WE Hi-Power?
It is indeed
