I've been kicking around a mate to my MP5 fullsize. I just saw Coharie/BMP/whoever is doing Fullsize-Ks. Being the normal receiver with the short barrel, cocking tube.
Are there any disadvantages to this setup that I am unaware of? The issues I know of are:
Is this is a legit way to get a slightly longer, but far less expensive version of a K? Am I missing anything regarding the shoot-ability or function?
With a Fullsize-K receiver, the extra MP5 parts I already own (stocks, trigger pack, bolt head), all I need is a K carrier and locking piece? Right?
I hate to even ask this.... but how are the latest Coharie/BMP/ToddyB receivers? If I'm JUST using their receiver is it in spec enough to work as well as an MKE?

- The K fullsize is longer than a real K receiver... but how much? A saw a photo that looked to be approx 1".
- You can't use any K stock or trigger pack... but if I already own a fullsize, that's kind of better for me for parts interchange isn't it?
- A custom recoil guide rod must be used, I read a length of 8 7/16" total, made from a G3. I have no idea what spring to start with.
