Ca mp5

The "fair" price is whatever you are willing to pay for it. This is a gun that cannot be taken out of your home or shot so you'd be just as well off stapling the money to your wall.

I want a CA MP40 to complete my collection but those with them want around $900 and that is a lot of money to invest in a dead end item that cannot be used. So I am waiting till a current owner decides he'd rather have $600 in his pocket than $900 locked up in a gunsafe.

good luck with that...

a CA anything is worth at least what same gun in dewat form is worth...and dewat mp40s go for a bit more than 600 skins

what is the asking price on the MP-5 and what does it come with....?

 
It was a older gentleman who said it was originally a semi auto but when he had to register it, it was classified as a CA. It doesn't have the full auto select position as the picture has. It had at least one mag, no butt stock. He wanted $2500. I would say there's some wiggle room there as well. I just looked at the pictures I took and it may very well be a HK 94.

Were any semi-auto MP-5s ever available for sale to civilians? Years ago I knew a guy who had the barrel on his HK94 professionally shortened--it looked great.

Beautiful. Got to look one over at Depot in Regina. It ticks me off to see how many exceptional firearms got axed after C68. I have a buddy who has two FN FALS that were packed in grease from the OPP. Also serial numbers showed they were one after the other. Wish I could own one of those, plus a MP5. A real STG44, Steyr Aug.... etc etc...

If it really is a HK94 registered as a converted auto it's in the wrong class and may get gonged when you try to do the transfer. What's the barrel length? Does it have the three lugs for a QD suppressor? Genuine MP5s have the three lugs up at the muzzle (see Klunk's photo), factory 94's do not. The 94's came with 16.1 barrels but someone may have shortened it along the way. Unless they got their hands on a surplus MP5 barrel and did a rebarrel it will not have the three lugs.
 
Here's a picture I took, sorry about the poor quality.

... It would have been nice if you could have actually fired one. They are amazingly accurate. From the prone, no warmup or practice, it was easy to take out the entire CX leaving just a single ragged hole in the center from 50M. Even at a 100m all 30 shots could be held in the center. 'Carried one for years in my last posting, before retirement.Reliable like a rock ! ......Now, MP5 sights on a Winchester 94, and you'd have a damn near perfect Deer Rifle for in the timber ! ....

with the plastic two position navy lower, i'd guess it at one time may have been full auto and the lower was changed to semi.. it does have the three lug barrel. my hk94 has metal lower, but it also has the three lug barrel.. thinking a barrel change would be a huge job to do.

Unless someone did a "clip and pin" job on the lower then it appears to be an MP5 not an HK94 with a new barrel (impossible to tell without seeing the gun without the lower)

The barrels are a PITA to change, they are pressed in with a 9-ton press and a welded-in cross-pin. Requires totally re-finishing the gun if re-barreled and special jigs so you don't mash the receiver.

In the USA a re-barrel is quite common, in Canada it wouldn't be worth it at all when you COULD get a semi MP5 without too much effort.
 
looks like the real thing to me...

for some reason the factory didn't paint/highlight the F on the selector...the pic looks like it is there though...

also...the lower is a 2 pin...not a single pin and clip

you might get grief doing the transfer...ask the owner to start the transfer before payment...if it gets held up by the JBTs at least you can walk..
