why the heck would anyone want one of those?
Same reason people want cars and bikes that will do 180 MPH...because.
but after having shot a mp5 im kinda spoiled
I am much more impressed with Ruger's 9x19 machine pistol. You can take Suzy Homemaker, with no experience whatsoever, and have her hit man sized targets at 100 yards in about 10 minutes with one! Much cheaper than the MP-5, but doesn't have the same sex appeal.
