| One of the world's most wide-spread SMGs. The MP5 began it's service in 1961 with the Bundeswehr (West German Army) and other German law enforcement agencies. Today, MP5 has been adopted by many armies and law enforcement agencies, including the US Army and Navy, as well as the SAS and many other forces. The MP5 is offered in the following base configurations: A1 - without stock A2 - with fixed polymer stock A3 - with telescopic metal stock SD1/SD3 - variants with integral silencers and stocks as in the A1-A3 models MP5N - US Navy model with 3-round burst mode and ambidexterous fire selector The MP5 is a recoil-operated, roller-delayed blowback select-fire weapon (overall design is very similar to the HK G3 battle rifle). It fires from a closed bolt, thus achieving very good accuracy. Standard sights are a select range of peep-hole rear and post from sights. MP5s may be equipped with night vision aids, telescopic sights, laser aiming devices, and tactical lights. Old variants of the MP5 had ported metal handguards and straight box magazines; newer variants have polymer handguards and curved box magazines to ensure reliable feeding. For some time, HK produced 10mm auto and .40SW versions of the MP5, named MP5/10 and MP5/40, respectively, but now they are discontinued in favor of the newest HK UMP submachine gun. MP5s are rugged, reliable, and accurate weapons, one of the best in it's class.
