The MP5 Submachine Gun
Leroy Thompson
Since the mid-1960s the Heckler & Koch MP5 has become the most
widely used submachine gun in the world, especially among
counterterrorist and special-operations units. Lightweight and offering a
blistering rate of fire of up to 900 rounds per minute, the MP5 quickly
earned a reputation for accuracy. Fielded early by West Germany's GSG 9
counterterrorist unit it was soon adopted by the SAS. Today military
and police agencies in over 80 countries from Albania to Zambia utilize
the weapon. Featuring specially commissioned full-color photographs and
expert analysis, this engaging study charts the origins, use, and impact
of the MP5, Heckler & Koch's innovative and long-lived submachine
gun.
