Worth anything as far as what? Money? Gold? Dead hookers? You might want to try non run on sentences and be more literate, this will help us determine what it is you are asking.

Did you mean something along the lines of:

"Now I would like to try to trade the MP5+cash for an AK47, M4/M16 or buy a new gun. Does anyone know of any good guns in the price range of $100-150?"

?

Thanks to axis' translation I think I can answer this question (thanks axis :P).

Ideally, if you really hate your Mp5 you could sell it and probably make profit off of it if it works (being a CA I wouldnt be surprised if it doesnt :P) and depending on the age of the gun.  50$ is a killer deal for a fully working CA gun, despite my reservations about CA.

To answer your question about decent guns in the $100-$150 range... well... there are a few that are ok.  I bite my tounge when I say this, but the JG "Enhanced Gearbox" versions are mildly impressive for the price tag.  It appears that JG pulled it's head out of it's collective arse and started producing quality gearbox internals.  It's NOT perfect, so dont get the impression it is, but it gets the job done and is relativly inexpensive.  For a base for upgrades it would be a pretty solid base gun.  

There is also a hole bunch of CYMA product lineup that sits in that price range as well that is quality bits of kit, again, dont expect them to be perfect, but for the price they are pretty nice guns.

What you should do is spend a little more, at a minimum spend it on an SRC Gen III gun (OnTarget Airsoft has them, they are a little pricey in the mid $200 range) or save up and buy any of the more "name brand" guns like ICS, G&G, VFC, KA, whatever.  You will find that as the price goes up, so does the quality of the gun (imagine that) although that analogy is not always true, for the most part when comparing the "Clones" to the "Originators" (funny because at some point and time all the companies have cloned something from the TM guns) that holds true, but I personally detest the internals of VFC guns and they are almost $100 more than ICS for certain guns.

i agree on the JGs. i had a JG M4 S-Syestem (TM clone) with the enhanced gearbox and it was extremely reliable. i would recommend the s-system for a beginner gun but be advised my gun was shooting a little hot when i got it (about 410fps) so if you end up buying the JG put a few hundred rounds through it to get the spring to settle down some.

reliability and accuracy first.
then RoF.
in my opinion.

metal bushings/bearings
spring guide w/bearings
hopup bucking/nub
nozzle w/seal
tbb
piston/pistonhead
dean's connectors
low resistance wireset
bigger and/or better battery
new gears and motor
new gearbox

In that order. by the time you get to having a better battery, you'll have a beast of an AK. if you decide to majorly up the rate of fire, with gears/motor etc... you will more than likely need a new gearbox.
