If you got a MP5. chambered it with 5.56 NATO ammo. Would it become an AR or would it still be a machine gun?

It would become an HK 53

OP here, let me change the question. If you got a kriss vector, chambered it with 5.56 NATO. Would it still be a submachine gun? Or would it be reclassified as an Assault Rifle?
>>
>>29313608
it would be absolute garbage. The barrel on that thing is miniscule. It would be an assault rifle though.

H&K classifieds the HK53 as a submachine gun, but these are the same people who load magazines backwards.

OP is not Autistic. OP is either a troll, or a fucking moron.
An Autistic person who's interest was in guns would know far more about firearms than you.
An Autistic person who's areas of interest did not include firearms, would not ask a question about them of a firearms board.

Agreed, I also find it funny that they moved the red dot sights on the other two rifles based on where the text was.
>>
>>29313903
replace "sniper" with "DMR" and it makes more sense.
>>
>>29313978
Even then it makes little sense. Red dots aren't suited to adjustments to windage and elevation in the field.

This is what you literally asked OP

No, submachine guns by definition fire pistol cartridges

>Or would it be reclassified as an Assault Rifle?

Assault rifle is a role, not a classification.

What the fuck is this about anyway
>>
>>29313560
MP5 is a submachine gun. It is made by H&K. An AR is an assault rifle. It has different guts. Ammunition type is only one of many possible differences between guns. You would also need to do a lot more than switch out the chamber. the 5.56 is a much larger cartridge. You would need to do a massive amount of work to the innards of the gun. Quite frankly I suspect if you told a gunsmith you wanted that done he'd laugh then die spontaneously of a heart attack. It makes no sense. Your entire post makes no sense.
>>
AR is not an acceptable acronym for assault rifle you mong. Everybody will think you're referring to The AR 15. To answer your question though, a select fire roller delayed blowback rifle chambered in an intermediate cartridge, regardless of any previous designation it might have had prior to being chambered for an intermediate cartridge, would most definitely be an assault rifle.

Optics (on the built in version at least) and caliber kind of ruin it for marksman, among other issues.
