That is what I did when long barrel 94P models were all that was available. Sent it to S&H for a cut and crown and three lug adapter. Now here is the really, really important part. Most people simply thread the barrel and screw on the adapter as if it were some kind of muzzle device.
However on a true MP5 the threaded barrel continues right through the adapter and the crown is out in front where it should be. That is NOT how most people do it and that is why three lug / threaded Navy setups are so much more common.
There are a handful of guys I would trust to three lug a cut and crown barrel job and top of the list is Curtiss Higgins at S&H Arms.

It would be easier to buy one of the three lug / threaded setups already to go but if you are dead set against it, getting a long barrel Zenith is the way to go. Just make sure you get the pistol version because last I checked the rifle version had blocking bars in the magazine well to make sure it only accepted 10 round magazines and the trigger group and buttstock were a one piece contraption.
It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.
