- You are correct that HK does/did make an MP-5 in a 10mm
- chambering. However the design was made well after the May 19, 1986
- machine gun law change which forbids private ownership of
- newly made automatic weapons. Hence, because the guns are
- made "post-86" they are transferrable only to police, government,
- and class III machine gun dealers as sales samples only.
-
- Life sucks doesn't it? All because of something someone passed
- on a day in May of 1986....
