MP5 Slip Trip V3

MP5 Slip Trip V3 Features

The MP5 Slip Trip V3 stands out with its unique ability to slide along the receiver rails, pulled by the bolt carrier for flawless operation. This design ensures compatibility with both semi-auto and full-auto cut bolt carriers, offering versatility across various MP5 models and clones.

Key highlights include:

• Collapsing Mechanism: Collapses upon firing to avoid affecting rate of fire or adding wear to the receiver.
• Minimal Modification Needed: Fits most setups without special adjustments, though some filing may be required for AP5 or AP5K models with full-auto carrier blocks.
• Community-Driven Design: Built on original concepts by hertzofheimer (Instagram) and meatbanana42069 (Reddit), refined with their invaluable feedback.

This practical solution prioritizes ease of use and durability, making it ideal for enthusiasts seeking reliable performance in their custom firearm projects.

MP5 Slip Trip V3 Parts

The MP5 Slip Trip V3 package includes STL files pre-oriented for printing, complete with brims and supports where necessary. Note that STEP files are not correctly oriented and should be used for reference only. These files are derived from the original Trip Clip STEP file, with measurements cross-referenced from related designs for precision.

For optimal results, print using PLA Pro or Polymaker PA6-CF for a high-temperature alternative. Detailed print settings are provided, and a comprehensive build guide is accessible via PDF at this link. Special considerations include using the "No Support" or "No Brim" versions (found in the Other folder) if adjustments to supports or brims are preferred.

Printer Compatibility & Settings

The MP5 Slip Trip V3 is compatible with most FDM 3D printers equipped with a 0.4mm nozzle. Recommended materials include PLA Pro for standard use or Polymaker PA6-CF for enhanced heat resistance, with specific settings available via the creator’s Odysee guide (@s3igu2). Ensure your printer supports high infill settings for durability.

Key print settings include:

• Temperature: 220°C (nozzle) / 60°C (bed) for PLA Pro
• First Layer Height: 0.20mm (or 0.15mm)
• Layer Height: 0.15mm
• Wall Loops: 4 walls maximum
• Infill: 100% Rectilinear
• Supports: Not required unless using specific "No Support" or "No Brim" versions

These settings ensure a robust print that withstands the mechanical demands of firearm integration. Always double-check orientation of STL files before printing to avoid errors.
