'[R-PUB wrote:MrD;600633']Guys, the search for an animator goes on, to add new weapons into the games engine. Until then, the SA80 series carbine is going to wait, but you can at least view it on a table with MP5, Kalashnikov variant and a few other "toys"

Whats the two big toys on that table?

H-AT and Pilot Kits with MP7 or something equivalent.
The MP7 was designed to be a PDW (Personal Defence Weapon), and to be carried just like a pistol.
Has any1 seen the movie stealth, when the pilot ejects, she takes out her mp7 before.
that was a totally fake movie...

Sabre_tooth_tigger wrote:So is the HK53 related to a MP5
A quote from hkpro.com, a pretty reliable source regarding HK weapons:
Rifle power in a submachine gun package, the HK53. It is truly neither rifle, nor submachine gun, but a strange mixture of both. A submachine gun is defined as a select fire weapon, fired from the shoulder using a pistol cartridge. However, with only an 8.3 inch barrel, the HK53 hardly qualifies as a rifle. The HK53 fills the void where pistol cartridge submachine guns like the MP5 or MP5/10 and MP5/40 may not be suitable against armored suspects.
Many parts of the HK53 are interchangeable with the MP5, they are so similar in size. The example above shows us the newer style concave buttplate that until recently was only reserved for the MP5 series. It is now available for the 33 and 53 series. The forks are slightly longer on this model than for the MP5 series. The four prong flash hider seen here is now standard. It does much more to suppress the flash from this short barreled weapon than did the more standard flash hider seen on the 33 and G3.
There is also a frangible ammunition adapter offered as an option that provides the necessary back pressure to cycle the HK53 reliably with very light .223 caliber frangible ammunition that is now available for entry situations where deep penetration is more undesirable. This may prove somewhat unnecessary, since the national trend of adopting .223 caliber firearms for tactical entry is proving that there is generally less ancillary penetration of conventional .223 caliber projectiles than even pistol caliber submachine guns.

M2 .50 Cal on the RHS edge of the table and FN MAG 7.62 NATO MG in the middle.
FN MAG = Brit GPMG = US M240.

Show me a reputable source confirming the MP7 being used in such a role for one of the militaries currently* featured in PR and there may be something to talk about.
*Before anyone gets smart, yes the Germans are moving over to the MP7 from the MP2, and yes, they will be featured, provided of course that the community mod is deemed to meet PR's standard of implimentation. This is not relevent to the current topic at hand.

bump,
MP5A3 set as MEC crewman PDW based upon military advice from Eddie Baker.

But with the MP5, now give them at least one extra mag, 9mm vs 5.56 seems really unfair imo.

Its not armour piercing either, so hopefully its accurate enough for consistent headshots
