Description
🗡️ AP5-SD Full-Size Katana Integrally Suppressed Conversion by Ronin Arms™
Conversion Time: 2–4 Months | Hand-Built Precision | Made in the USA
⚠️ IMPORTANT CONVERSION INFORMATION
“In Stock” does not mean ready to ship. It means we have the required components available and can place your AP5-SD Full-Size conversion into our active 2–4 month conversion queue.
Your AP5-SD Full-Size conversion is individually built, fit, and tested one at a time by one gunsmith.
The 2–4 month conversion timeline begins once your firearm has been received, checked in, and all required components and information have been verified.
These are not pre-built conversions sitting on a shelf ready to ship. Every AP5-SD Full-Size conversion requires individual gunsmithing, fitting, inspection, testing, and processing before it can leave our shop.
⚠️ YOUR LOCAL FFL HANDLES YOUR 4473 & FINAL TRANSFER
RONIN ARMS™ DOES NOT COMPLETE YOUR ATF FORM 4473 OR YOUR LOCAL CUSTOMER TRANSFER.
Your Katana suppressor will be transferred from Ronin Arms™ to your selected local FFL/SOT. Your local dealer will handle the Form 4473, background check, and any other customer-facing transfer requirements applicable under current federal, state, and local law.
Ronin Arms™ handles the required manufacturer/dealer transfer process necessary to send the suppressor to your FFL/SOT. Your local FFL/SOT handles the final transfer to you.
Please contact your selected FFL/SOT with questions regarding the Form 4473, background check, identification requirements, waiting periods, or any other requirements that may apply to your individual transfer.
Conversion and transfer timing can vary depending on:
🔹 Receipt and check-in of your firearm
🔹 Receipt of your dealer’s FFL/SOT information
🔹 Current conversion queue and order volume
🔹 Individual gunsmithing, fitting, and testing
🔹 Form 3 submission and approval timelines
🔹 Scheduled shipping days
Each AP5-SD Full-Size conversion is individually inspected, tested, and verified to Ronin Arms™ standards before shipment.
As a boutique firearms manufacturer, we intentionally limit the number of conversions placed into our active queue to maintain quality and ensure every platform receives the attention it deserves.
One conversion. One gunsmith. Built the way it should be.
Our goal is simple: build it right the first time, not build it fast.
Thank you for supporting American manufacturing and the Ronin Arms™ family.

Being one of the more expensive conversions, I had some high expectations, and Ronin Arms surpassed them. I’ve watched/read several reviews of conversions from other companies and saw things like the a few supersonic cracks from 115s, leaving the standard cocking tube, no refinish, etc. The work and attention put into my gun was well worth the wait and price. They gave attention to the small details like lining the cocking tube up perfectly, clean welds on the SD cage to spec. As far as the actual shooting, this is the quietest, smoothest MP5 I’ve shot. I ran 300 rounds of 115gr with no issues, and thanks to their unique porting, it’s not filthy at all. Highly recommend.

I couldn’t be happier with my AP5-SD conversion from Ronin Arms. The entire experience was excellent from start to finish.
Misty was extremely helpful and responsive throughout the process. She answered all of my questions, helped me work through the shipping process, and made everything easy on my end.
Scott did an incredible job on the actual conversion. The quality of the work is excellent, the gun runs great, and it has quickly become one of my absolute favorite firearms to shoot. I had high expectations going into an AP5-SD conversion, and the finished product absolutely lived up to them.
Between Scott’s workmanship and Misty’s customer service, I had a great experience with Ronin Arms. You can tell they take pride in what they do, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone considering an MP5SD/AP5-SD conversion.
Absolutely worth it. Thanks again to Scott and Misty for an awesome experience and an even better finished product!
