The only thing I would have an issue with (if I had the money and was in the market for a transferable machine gun) is you can't replace the barrel on an MP5 if I remember correctly. There's no telling how many thousands of rounds that gun has had run through it.
I don't think that's correctly. I think they're press fit, similar to how AK's are, into a trunyon that is welded into the receiver. Granted it's not as easy as it is for an AR. I'd have to look though.
Yep, barrels can be replaced.
You'd need a quality smith familiar with roller locks to do it, which isn't going to be cheap.
But then again, nothing in the machine gun or HK world is cheap.
For those who aren't aware, the reason HK sears are so desirable is you can use one sear on a bunch of different guns that all take HK trigger packs.
For example...MP5s are nice. I like shooting them.
You know what's more fun?
Belt fed HKs.
If I ever won the lottery my first two purchases would be an HK sear and a HK23E.
