2017-02-24 at 7:29 PM UTCthe Heckler & Kock MP5 (maschinenpistole 5) was developed in the 1960's and is still to this day the most widely used submachine gun in the world, being used officially on contract by over 40 nations and numerous military, law enforcement, intelligence, and security organizations. the MP5 became iconic during the 80s as they were wielded by the SAS on international television as they took down the iranian embassy, rescuing hostages and killing five terrorists.
although SWAT and other agencies have begun to favor AR15 based weapons, as they become lighter, shorter, and more technologically capable, the MP5 is still to this day in heavy usage as we approach it's 50th birthday. over three dozen variants are in service, including the HK94 civilian variant which remains in high demand, perhaps due in part to the ineffable symbolism of counter-terrorist and special forces operations that the MP5 carries.
As the state of the art progresses, the use of the MP5 will likely continue to decline, as more advanced and superior platforms become available and common. However, it is unlikely that any other submachine will ever have the same preeminent status as the MP5. No arguments over the technical virtues and best use-case of firearms will ever be concluded to satisfaction, as we take the knowledge thereof to more and more subtle grounds of distinction and application; but we can consider as closed the question of which submachine gun has achieved the greatest notoriety and distinction; this honor, historically and into the future, will remain as the merit awarded to the reliable, the venerable, the ubiquitous, the faithful...
The MP5.

Free hint for fn herstal:
If you have to coat your casings in explosives to get the action to cycle, go the fuck back to the drawing board
hk is one of the best firearms manufacturers there is
what the shits are you talking about? no one coats anything with explosives -

2017-02-25 at 12:29 AM UTCI live in a big city and I just want to do sport shooting, target practice and shooting a can off a fence post, that type of stuff.
I don't live in the USA, I can get shotguns and rifles, maybe a handgun one day if I get a lot of licenses.
I was thinking of getting an SKS 7.62 rifle or something, maybe I can go hunting with my grandpa one day. What would you suggest for a first time gun buyer who never fired a gun in their life?. -

the first thing to know about getting advice on firearms is to take everything with a grain of salt and get second...third...and fourth opinions. despite how well meaning advice-givers try to be, that doesnt mean they know what the fuck theyre talking about.
second thing...if youve never fired a gun, find someone to let you shoot theirs to get a feel for it and get an idea for what you like and dont like. proper etiquette is to bring your own ammo.
an SKS is good for a first gun...almost ideal. its cheap, uses cheap ammo, is virtually indestructible, and is more accurate than an AK. the el-cheapo 7.62x39 ammo isnt made for accuracy...its made so you can make the gun go 'bang' with something coming out of the barrel...thatll eventually wind up in a dinner-plate sized target pattern. if you want to hunt with one, or take more precision shots, make sure you get real ammo from a quality manufacturer with an appropriate bullet. 7.62x39 is good for animals the size of medium sized deer (or smaller) at 100 yards or less.
i wouldnt get a shotgun as a first gun...but thats just me. theyre versatile depending on various types of shot/slug, plinking ammo can be cheap, but theyre definitely not ideal as a first gun. buuuuut...everyone is different and some people may love having a shotgun over a rifle. there are loads available that have lower recoil. i know people whos only firearm is a shotgun, or multiple shotguns.
for a first gun look for something that shoots ammo that is easy to get a hold of. i dont know where you live, but it sounds like ammo isnt as common to find as it is where i live. for instance...a 30-06 bolt-action could be good because the ammo can be down-loaded to shoot with virtually no recoil but when loaded hotter, can be used to hunt bears. the rifles are relatively cheap around where i live...and i dont know any store that sells ammo that doesnt sell 30-06. but thats just an example. where i live .223/5.56x45, .308/7.62x51, 30-06, and .270 win are ALWAYS on the shelf. even during the ammo shortages those calibers werent impossible to find, compared to other calibers.
as far as i know .22s are common all over the world and can be used to feed a pistol or rifle. ammo is cheap, the guns are cheap, but they arent good for hunting anything larger than a rabbit. -
