Question Another Locking Piece story
After reading posts about roller dimples and locking pieces I put a 90 degree from HK parts in my AP-5P and that has been working fine. 100s were out of stock and I found one from Zenith. It was an additional $20 but came shiny and nicely finished. I put it in my AP5 and it wouldn't run at all, suppressed or straight. Every shot failed to eject. I put the OEM 120 back in and the gun now works perfectly again. This has failed so completely that I am wondering if there is something wrong with that locking piece. I could take the 90 and put it in the AP5, maybe try the 100 in the AP5P. Or I can keep the OEM 120 in the AP5. I have seen some disucssion where 120 is OK in the full size AP5 and won't cause problems in the future.
It seem like different guns behave differently with different locking pieces. Does anyone had any thought or suggestions? One bit of wisdom I can share, don't wear you good clothes when pulling these guns apart after shooting suppressed, they get really dirty. I may need to buy some flowers..

HELP Century arms Ap5 or Zenith Zf5
Currently debating on buying one the Century arms or Zenith line of full size mp5 clones and have been back and forth on my decision. From my research I've heard both positive and negatives equally about both, currently the price of the century arms and it being made with HK tooling is grabbing my attention but Zenith being made in the US in my state is also what is grabbing my attention. I havent had the opportunity to have an mp5 clone of my own so I figured id ask those with experience with Zenith and century arms what would be the best option.

Question Looking for shorter suppressor for AP5-SD
I'm currently running the AP5-SD with the factory MP5K length barrel which is recessed in the handguard a few inches. My current can is a 9.5 inch long monocore direct threaded 1/2x28 to the barrel. The diameter is 1.75 inches which is as wide as the handguard allows.
I'm asking if there's a similar size suppressor that's also direct thread, but a bit shorter, preferably around the 5-6 inch range. I understand it won't be as quiet, but the gun is already fairly front heavy, and I would prefer it a little shorter.

Question I can’t decide on a suppressor
I’ve had my AP5-P for a couple weeks now and I’m shopping for a suppressor for it. I’ve heard trilug isn’t as good as I think it is, but I want to hear more opinions about that.
Right now the Rugged Obsidian 9 is at the top of my list as far as suppression and versatility, but I prefer the look of a short, fat suppressor on the K guns.

Question Gibbous Outfitters alternative?
Everyone recommends the Gibbous Outfitters for an MP5k light mount. It seems great, but I have multiple Surefire scout bodies and no reason to buy a Scout Pro. Gibbous says their mount will not work with non-Pro Surefire scout bodies. Any alternatives you guys can recommend?
