Heckler & Koch MP5 A3 
Submachine Gun (SMG)

The MP5 Submachine gun, for 9mm x19 (Luger) ammunition, is an automatic small arm produced in accordance with the most advanced manufacturing methods. It permits either single shots or burst to be fired from all positions.

The submachine gun is recoil-operated, with stationary barrel and delayed roller locked bolt system.

Its high accuracy in single-fire mode results from the fact that the submachine gun fires from a close bolt, in conjunction with the recoil operated delayed roller locked bolt system.

This delayed roller locked bolt system also allows the weapon to be held easily when firing bursts.

The MP5 offers absolute safety because it fires from the closed bolt position.

The ammunition is fed from a 15- or 30-round magazine.
