The HK MP5K is known as the 'Room Broom' because of its compact size. By Staff Writer
The HK MP5K is based on the successful HK MP5-series of submachine gun produced by the German-based firm of Heckler & Koch. The HK MP5K is a specialized shortened version of the base submachine gun featuring a short barrel and forward grip for added control when firing.
The HK MP5K is sometimes dubbed the 'Room Broom' because of it's intended purpose. The compact size and man-stopping firepower make sure that the weapon delivers as advertised. The base system features only single and automatic fire capability. Three round bursting mode is available on variant models (listed below).
Versions include:
HK MP5K - Base model
HK MP5KA1 - Features smaller iron sights and smoother finish on upper chamber.
HK MP5KA4 - HK MP5K with three round burst capability
HK MK5KA5 - HK MP5KA1 model with three round burst capability.
