    I’m thinking of trying to SBR my MP) clone and looking to see if there are any stocks that would help get it over the stupid 29 inch rule. I was thinking about the new magpul adapter that allows buffer tubes and AR stocks to be added to see if I can push it over the length limit. Anybody form 1 an mp5 here? Any suggestions for a stock?

    Search, there is a whole thread on this.
    All-time classic thread, too, IMHO:
    https://www.mdshooters.com/showthread.php?t=180811

    Word of warning: there were some "solutions" in that thread that I don't think would stand up in court[1]. Long story made short, you can't really do it on a classical MP5 SBR. You need a longer barrel, or you need to pin and weld a muzzle device on it.

    [1] Nothing is going to top the "PS90s are legal because my FFL lied on the form and called it a pistol" thread, though.

    Appreciate the guidance. I especially appreciate the link. I’ll be honest, I don’t think the search function likes my phone, but I’ll keep trying on the future. Thanks.

    You can get stock extensions for the PS90 that makes it over 29" :)

    I gave up on the SBR thing for MP5s. Use the new-ish PDW brace, see pic below.

    The folding brace LOP was too long for me. On the MP5K that same folding brace was perfect. This "HKPDW" brace actually has 2 positions and the long position is perfect for me.

    LOP for HKPDW Brace (per a member at HKPro):
    Fully Extended: 12 5/8” / 32cm
    Halfway Extended: 11 1/4” / 28.5cm

    I measured the SB Tactical Folding brace at 13.75" for LOP.

    Don't pay $260 for these. You can find them new for $190-ish.
