From what I’ve heard they have super shitty triggers so personally I’d rather go the MP5 route

I'm guessing you're that user in the pistol caliber carbine thread?
I went GS upper and the rest are a Tom-Bostic converted UMP lower, a complete USC BCG, UMP stock, and an HDPS barrel.
Total was a little over $2k and I have no ragrets.

I have one in 45 and a part of the bolt sheared. Emailed Atlantic who said they'd give me a call which they never did. Sent a second email. Nothing. They're cool but not even close to worth 1k let alone 2k. The barrel wobbles and the threads are too long to put a suppressor on because the suppressor will have nothing to shoulder against. I fucking hate this gun but still love it because of the mw2 days. If it functioned proudly it would be worth like 800.

Are you using the quick detach barrel pin that comes with the Gideon Shadow?
Since I got one for mine and I had the same problem with the barrel being loose in the trunnion.
I just got an HK UMP barrel roll pin and now the barrel is solid as a rock.

I want to have TBT convert a USC so bad using a UMP kit, then finish an F/A conversion when I get it.

yeah, that's me. Your build looks great. I'm trying to get a good deal on a USC bolt from a dude on HKPRO forums. If not, I'll just buy the complete upper from atlantic. Have you had any issues with yours? Like failure to feed, double feeds, ejection probs etc

I'm still on the fence on whether to build the UMP clone out with parts or just buy a PTR 9CT Mp5 clone and throw a wide german forend on

btw, where did you buy your USC BCG?

>PTR MP5
> welded on pic rail

pig disgusting

Why didnt you just call them?

HK PRO forums, coincidentally.
I got the complete BCG, recoil spring assembly, and 3 German UMP magazines (2 brand new mags and one LEO marked magazine) for about $500.

holy shit what a deal dude, mad jelly

suerta la pistola

Yea I need to get one of them then. Wobbly barrel pisses me of

Working on night shift atm. Hard to be awake during normal business hours.

has anyone purchased the barreled gideon shadow receiver from atlantic? Does it come with an HK bolt like the pics show?

>"Exact markings on parts may vary from pictures"
It for sure doesn't come with an HK bolt. The bolt is a GSG9 US-Made bolt assembly.

How do the GSG9 manufactured bolts compare to German made? If anyone has any feedback from the US made parts, let me know por favor. I know that the HDPS barrels are supposedly A-OK

I'd be cautious with GSG9 parts, an user posted earlier that his GSG9 bolt sheared.

I want a goddamn USC BCG but nobody will sell me one lol

So he was a lawyer, who somehow afterwards became the world's most badass operator?

What did they mean by this?

last parts i need to stock block convert are arriving today, will send it to tommybuilt asap with plans to sbr and maybe rear fuze convert in the future.

the trigger is shit but landing every round on 100m on man-sized targets is easy. Also, reset isn't bad so fast follow up shots are easy.
