Mosfet is a good idea no matter what. Even if it's just a basic switching unit to save your trigger contacts, it's never a bad thing. If you're handy you can pull a schematic and make your own, or they're cheap enough that it's really a 'why wouldn't you' scenario.
As for rate of fire in an MP5, yeah, my kid's stock Top Tech is hitting about 15rps. Is that so bad? I know, I know! Blasphemy!! hahaha. But consider this...it's still 15 BB's per SECOND. That's still a pile of ammo. If the enigmatic airsoft sniper can take a guy out with one BB, and you've got 15 per second, well, you've killed him 15 times by the time he's racked the bolt for another shot. Personally, I'd work on the range and accuracy of the gun over the ROF. Make those BB's really count. My old ground pounder only fires at 12rps, but effective range is well over 200ft. Even if you have awesome ROF, if they're falling short I've still got the range advantage and you're still very hit.
My kid and I had this discussion post game. His MP5 is a great little rifle but if we could get it to stretch another 50ft it would be absolutely epic. Besides, keeping the ROF down means less wear and tear on the internals...and less coin. Cheaper to shoot far and accurate than just dump it on the ground...just putting it out there...
