Manca's retro MP5
This guide details the process of customizing an MKE-made MP5 clone, specifically a Zenith Z-5RS, with retro aesthetic elements from an HK G3. The build involves adapting original G3 wooden furniture, including a stock refinished with Tung oil and a significantly modified handguard, along with a steel G3 lower receiver and an AC Unity pistol grip. The project highlights the challenges and rewards of creating a unique, classic-looking firearm from modern components, emphasizing significant Dremel work and custom fitting.
