5 Reasons You Need A MP5
About this video
Colion presents his five reasons why he believes gun enthusiasts should own an HK MP5 or MP5-platform firearm. He covers the MP5’s iconic status following the 1980 Iranian Embassy Siege, its aesthetic appeal, its customization options, the relative availability of legal pre-1986 full-auto trigger packs, and the enjoyable shooting experience provided by its roller-delayed blowback system. Colion argues the MP5 is both fun to shoot and capable for self-defense purposes.
