MP5K

The Heckler & Koch MP5K is a submachine gun featured in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. The MP5K is the 'kurz' (German for 'short') version of the MP5, featuring a shorter barrel and no stock. As a result it has a higher rate of fire, and is favored by bodyguards because it is easy to conceal and fires the light 9mm Parabellum round making it easy to shoot at close range. The original version of the weapon, the Heckler and Koch MP5, was featured in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare and was voted favorite weapon of that game by users in 2009. This version is best at short range as it has fairly high recoil but it can be used at medium range in the hands of an experienced user; however long range firing is possible but requires very steady and quick bursts and typically an immobile or distracted target.

Campaign
It is seen used by "Takedown", during "Exodus"(in South Virginia) by fellow Ranger teammates, by various hostiles in conjunction with a Riot Shield. In the campaign the MP5K does not have a foregrip although in multiplayer it does. The version shown, the MP5K-PDW, which has a slightly longer barrel in order to improve accuracy back to full-size MP5 levels. However, that variant also came with a folding stock.
