Anybody happen to have the dimensions for a Gen 1 cocking handle buffer? I have a lathe and some nylon and dont mind whittling one up.

If you can get me close on the large side of all the measurements I can figure it out from there.


Thank You

If you do make one, could you get in touch w/ me. I've been looking for a Gen 1 buffer also.

Thx...

Picked up my new 2nd gen GSG-5 today and I've been looking at this buffer mod with interest.

However, I'm pretty much a newbie when it comes to HK-firearms and I was wondering if there was a tutorial or instructions on how to get to the point of disassembling the cocking tube to get the buffer on?

Thanks!

-Remove handguards and barrel shroud.
-See the 3 screws on that big block underneath the barrel? Remove the top one, and loosen the two on bottom.
-Remove the big black screw dangling out the bottom.
-Now just hold the weapon with your thighs or a friend, and tug on the cocking tube smoothly forward straight down the bore line.
-Pull the handle to lock the bolt back, and move it up to the catch.
-There is a small hole on the right side, and in there is a phillips screw.
-Remove the screw, the handle will come off and the buffer tube will fall out.

Reverse procedure to assemble

I'll try and get those micrometers this week.  His whole family has been sick, so I was staying away.

I stopped down and got my brothers micrometer.  I am going out though, I will get pics and specs up tomorrow after work.

Anyone interested in one for a Gen1 when running the MC-74b laser? I have to imagine that it is different since the laser intrudes into the tube more than just the cap.

I think I'll make one and try it. I think I'll make some normal ones for the Gen1 and Gen2 as well.

Cheers!
