MP5K

The MP5K is an SMG featured in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. The MP5K is the 'kurz' (short) version of the MP5, featuring a shorter barrel and no stock. As a result it has a higher ROF, and is favored by body guards because it is easy to conceal and fires the light 9mm Parabellum round making it easy to shoot at close range. The Full version of the weapon, the MP5 (hechler & koch) was in Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare and was voted favourite Weapon by users in 2009. The short version is best at medium range but can also be used at close range.

Trivia

 * In reality, the Russian police wouldn't use MP5Ks, as they are NATO weapons built in Germany. A more realistic choice would have been the PP2000, which is however used by some Russian soldiers in other campaign missions.
 * In single player, the MP5K does not have a fore-grip, however in multiplayer, there is a fore-grip.
 * Most MP5k models feature a PDW style folding stock; though this option is not available in game.
 * In the multiplayer icon of the weapon, it is the older SEF version, however, in the game it is the newer fire selection version.
 * The MP5K is used a lot less than the COD:4 MP5
 * The MP5K is almost impossible to control with the rapid fire attachment
 * The MP5K seems to have switched spots with the mini-uzi as the MP5K is much harder to control over the mini-uzi. Where it was the opposite in COD:4
 * Many players were diappointed with this new gun replacing the old, very popular MP5 from Modern Warfare 1.
