Are you sure your not thinking of the G-36K? I thought the C was a cut down version of the K? Like the M4 carbine is to the M-16. I could be wrong...

also, most of the standard MP5's have the capability to be silenced because of a threaded muzzle or the 3-lug flashhider.

and on the topic of the MP5 (the best submachine gun, ever) it also comes in 10mm and .40 caliber for those that dont like the 9mm.

I prefer the UMP .45.

Read quite a bit at world.guns.ru. I see.

Thats the modern version, made with threaded muzzle to accept US-made detachable silencers.

The MP5A3 didn't have a three lug mount, the N/A4 version does.

The army carries the m16a4 and the m4 its mission dependent but if your not infantry you have a m4 its becoming the standard in the army. While the army is testing new weapons no replacment has been found.

Just a advantage I haven't seen yet is that the SMG does not generate as much sound in buildings so that the operator is unable to hear,
or your ear's don't ring for as long.

Weapons are tools and the military uses what is needed to get the mission done.

I thought the Army used the A3, and the USMC used the A4.
