When I was taught to use an MP5 my instructor taught us to roll the gun inwards and rotate our hand around the grip (thus pushing the thumb forward) as if we were applying throttle on a motorcycle. He was also a motorcycle cop so I guess that made sense for him. His name was Ted Smith he was my friend and I miss him.

I got one that is made under license from MKE. It has the pin and paddle release. I prefer the MP5k-PDW with tri-lug. I have the tri-lug as well as threaded barrel. I plan to get a suppressor eventually. I like the cut drum sight. I've used it out to 200 meters. All the settings are the same but are different width. From what I heard it's because the K was initially developed as more a machine pistol with no stock. You can swap them out if you get the drum sight and tool. I love mine. My dad had it in the military for a short time before they switched to M4s because of armor wearing enemies. Before I got my tax stamp approved for the SBR, I would do the sling shooting method the SAS would use and I'm actually quite adept at running it like that. It's my favorite pistol caliber gun. I love roller delay blowback. Why I have a Cetme C (308/7.62x51) and Cetme L(5.56x45) too.

In a MP5 operators course where a lot of us were running optics, an instructor suggested somewhat cupping your hand or making an L shape with your hand and coming straight down to slap the charging handle. It's very reliable. Slapping would work sometimes, but others I would miss it, because the optic was in the way. I've also made a fist and hit it, but unless you're wearing gloves, you'll only do it a couple times before your hand gets sore.

Hi from the Czech Republic. I have recently bought exactly this variant of HK SP5k. It was used from the shooting range so the price was very low (well, low for original HK, you know what I mean 😭). I didn’t spend much time thinking before buying it and therefore I was very surprised by all the unpleasant things you describe: missing paddle, unreachable safety lever, no trilog, so little space for HK slap (UTG mount once hurt my fingers badly) 😤But it shoots so great! And the vibe! 🥰 We do have one love and hate relationship here for sure. 🤣 Thank you very much for a nice review!

We're on the same wavelength with the SP5k even though I picked up MKE's Z5k imported by Zenith firearms. It has the paddle mag release as well as the HK's missing pin in place. I actually think some people don't know the difference between the SP5k and the SP5k PDW. If I want to run suppressed I'll use my Z-5RS aka MKE SP5.

Right now it's the P-1. I'm using the lowest B&T Acro picatinny mount. The hood is in the way, depending on how you look through the sight. But it doesn't cover the target sagnificantly. It's OK for me, I also use the hood as an indicator to aim through the sight, if the battery should suddenly die or the electronics would fail

I think it was this one. hkparts.net/all-parts/h-k-sp5k-9mm-drop-in-paddle-mag-release-upgrade-kit/ Really tricky to install for me, because my sp5k had a blocker installed, that needed to be cut out first. After that getting the paddle in was tricky too, but not that hard. The Acro in this video uses a picatinny adapter and B&T Low Profile mount. It's in a somewhat 1/3 Co witness height. I switched to a full Co witness solution in the meantime by MAK
