But this can be achieved with an SMG, so why?
Ugly abomination.
i know, specifically crafted to buy abominations.
What bizarre requirements have they listed that somehow exclude every single 9mm carbine and SMGs? Are they requiring that they be manufactured in designated congressional districts again?
Why would the US army ask for a compatibility with a gun they don't use?
Oh, they wouldn't? And it's entirely bullshit? Ok then.
The main disqualifiers are total length with stock extended and the magazine placement in front of the grip.
High-cap Glock magazines are ubiquitous and known for reliability, with a focus on the former in relation to acquirement for the US Army.
Why? Can't they use an MP5K? Or something way less ugly?
The MP5 was considered but the overall length was a problem. People thought they were setting up the requirements for the MPX because SIG, but even that gun doesn't fit.
I think I found a weapon that would be perfect for this! It just needs a 9mm Parabellum barrel and an ugly wirestock.
Can't they convert some MP5s to MP5Ks? Am I stupid?
