Piece of advice for all owners of this baby. changing from semi to auto etc use both sides or you will damage selector. and that little wobble in stock , just put a bit of insolating tape where rail travels on both sides and done :)
Also refused optics due to the fact that it spoiled the iconic look of the native sight, lol I had to buy Platinum for the sake of gearbox and the standard version for the sake of the correct charging handle. It was a kind of funny constructor, now I am completely satisfied with both the appearance and the rate of fire
I’m a little confused, this mp5 looks identical to the one on taiwangun under the name “high speed” not blue. Is that the same gun or am I missing something, I’m quite new to airsoft and am looking for my first mid range metal mp5
So the blue series is basically a designation given to those cyna products that come with better spec internals. The high-speed series also had different internals, such as a high torque motor and gear set - the difference being that the high speed variation is geared towards a higher rate of fire and snappier trigger response
Its been absolutely fantastic. Truth be told, my son now uses this mp5 as I've treated myself to the NGRS version from Tokyo Marui. But maybe its even more of a testament that the cyma continues performing so great even though my lad is 'less careful' with it
Hello Sir, I bought this exact gun and I am happy for this but I have the following problem: Hop up adjustment strip is way too loose and goes back to no hopup after several shots. SO I was thinking of simply taping the hop up strip in place after I have adjusted it to the desired hop up ammount. My question is do you feel this is a good idea since it appears very cheap and effective solution to me however I am unable to find any mention of such solution for this style of hop up and I am worried fixing the hop up strip might damage the gun or something. If anyone has the same problem how did you solve it? Do you think my idea will work?
A friend had a similar issue and solved it in much the same way you've suggested here with no problems. If you're planning to stick to a set weight of BB's, I night be tempted to hot-glue it into position as it might just look a bit cleaner that the electrical tape solution.. you could always strip the gun down and tighten it all up properly, but that would likely void warranty etc.
The way I understand it the speed edition is basically cyma's version of a TM HiCycle. Geared slightly differently for a higher rate of fire - I don't think there would be any difference in terms of quality.
First port of call would be your fire selector.. As I said in the video, even on these blue editions, they feel like the budget selectors you'd expect to find on a low-end rifle.

Solid advice 👍
I picked mine up for about £140 from TaiwanGun prior to brexit. I'd say it shoots on par with my Hera, to be honest. It's one of my favourite RIFs
That's an amazing price - what an absolute bargain!
@@pewpewpaladin It's probably the RIF I use most, too
I’m about to pick this one up for my self looks great I’ve always wanted a mp5

Just need to get a torch on the handguard and I'm set..

Classic MP5!
That's I want, robust longevity of a gun; does it still serve you well?
I don't have much money to spend on airsoft replicas and I want it to last.

@@pewpewpaladin thank you very much for reply. I was gonna do it but now I will do it with CONFIDENCE!
Do you think the speed edition they have now would be better than the blue? Is the difference worth the price difference? Thank you!! Great review!

@@pewpewpaladin awesome, thanks!
Good looking gun
Agreed - I think the retractable mp5's are the best looking variants available.
I got the highspeed version but my semi sometimes shoots full auto i dont know what’s problem

Can you do the hk slap?
Ahhh 5:00 yes, that's the point where my mind decided to buy it
Do they give an American plug for the charger if you order to America?
If you try and import from a UK store, you will get a UK style plug. Can you not find anyone in the US that stocks it?
@@pewpewpaladin unfortunately because of copyright laws in the US, stores cannot sell mp5 replicas that are not given the "ok" by HK themselves
@@nocooldudes7614 so does that mean its umarex or nothing?
@@pewpewpaladin yep
250 pounds? I’m seeing one on Taiwan gun for $165, US. That’s literally less than the all polymer EF one lmfao
Thats crazy cheap!
@@pewpewpaladin yes, yes it is. I would buy from there then hehe
