the extended charging tube is also good as a replacement if the threads on the inlets are messed up. I just swapped it out and its good to go.

Any recommendations on a good third party pressure valve? The gen1 mags have terrible cooldowns. And when I ordered the mags they sent me these old gen1s... quite disappointing.
And what about inlet valves? I cant seem to find any third party steel versions, how does the action inlets hold?
- apapparently the umarex PPQ m2 uses the same inlet valves! I took one and tried and it worked flawlessly.

Another thing is... does the tsc brass magic inserts really work? And there are 2 coloured inserts... what is the diff?

Thanks... these mp5 mags are a headache with the crappy valves and charging tube. Even the new mags use really bad charging tubes with bad threads and no o-rings... the new pressure valves however seems to have a larger output.

Majority of the mods you shouldn't bother even playing with.
I've come to the conclusion using the original VFC parts from Gen 3 gun is the best and most efficient. The azimuth stuff is a hit or miss. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't.
The Action charging tubes are really damn good. I use them on most of the mags that I have that have had leaking issues.
The cooldown on the MP5 is really bad unfortunately, you will need to stick to semi-auto most of the time.
The space with the spacer (hop-up nub) is the one you need for sure. That is the best one to get the VSR10 accuracy. The gun will start to over-hop, but that's when you will need to start using .25g and .28g.
