Developed in the mid 1960s, the MP5 stands as one of the signature weapons of the late 20th century, deeply associated with advanced military formations like the British SAS and specialist police units like modern armed response/SWAT teams. Most "MP5" SMGs on the American market are HK94 semi-automatic carbines converted by American firms; H&K was disinterested in the civilian NFA market. This example was manufactured in 1972 in Germany and imported through SACO, with a hooded post front sight, 4-position rotating drum rear sight, and the "MP5" nomenclature on top of the receiver along with the serial number and "12/72" date. The receiver is in "pin" configuration, with a pin-compatible trigger pack, synthetic trigger housing with right-handed selector and "S/E/F" (safe/semi/full) selector positions, 1972 production bolt head and two-position telescoping buttstock. Two magazines are included, which are secured with a set of aftermarket "jungle mag" style brackets.

Excellent, with 90% of the original matte black finish, showing some mild high edge wear and handling/cycling marks. Some oxidization is present on the trigger pack. Mechanically excellent.
