From classic action movies like The Matrix and Die Hard to gaming franchises like Call of Duty and Battlefield, the MP5 has stolen the spotlight to truly become the iconic submachine gun.
With the help of Keeper of Firearms & Artillery, Jonathan Ferguson, we’ve come to the Royal Armouries museum in the UK to take a deep dive into the MP5, the origin of its popularity, the weapon’s place in video games and, of course, answer the question: just why do people slap it?
In this episode of Loadout, Dave Jewitt visits the Royal Armouries to talk to Keeper of Firearms & Artillery Jonathan Ferguson to chat about the most iconic submachine guns of all time: the MP5.

Great episode guys! I should note that my initial impression of a supersonic crack from the MP5SD was incorrect - we tried subsonic rounds and the report was the same - what I took to be a 'crack' was really just the 'pop' of the suppressor, far louder indoors than out. I was, I think, believing the hype that the only sound you get from the SD is the bolt reciprocating, which is clearly not true if you look at other channels' footage.

@LitReflex001 6 месяцев назад

I have heard the same. Apparently you still hear it but it is somewhat quieter and obscures your location. Not that I would know.

@triadwarfare 6 месяцев назад

I remember some gun channel did a test (can't remember if it was garand thumb or brandon hererra since they were both in it). The SD variant required standard rounds as if you use subsonic, the gun will not cycle, as it was designed to bleed off the excess gas.

@jonathanferguson1211 6 месяцев назад

I saw that - it's odd because everyone else's video (and anecdotally from contacts) the SD should run fine on subs. Must have been the specific load they were using.@@triadwarfare

@jonathanferguson1211 6 месяцев назад

It seems to be only a few Db less than an ordinary MP5 with a modern suppressor (although due to the way Decibels work, still audibly quieter as all the comparison videos do show) - what design the suppressor is makes a big difference to both guns; the modern KAC suppressor for the SD is significantly quieter than the 70s factory one we used.@@LitReflex001

The HK MP5 slap is kind of the inverse of the M1 Garand iconic "ping!": the former is for having the gun reloaded and ready to fire while the latter is the inescapable announcement that the rifle has fired its last round from the clip.

Though amusingly, you could tell when one would be fired if you watched closely. Because non-firing prop versions had the straight Navy type grips, while the actual blank guns always had the contoured SEF type lowers.

@user-bt8xr5si9y 6 месяцев назад

I think that is because the SD basically turns Supersonic bullets into Subsonic bullets. I don't exactly know how it works and I'm surprised it wasn't mentioned in this video but a normal MP5 with an external suppressor will not yield the same quietness as the SD does unless you use subsonic ammo. That's what makes the SD different, it takes normal 9mm Supersonic ammo and is still this quiet. Infact it won't even function correctly with subsonic ammo as it won't cycle with it.

@Kraakesolv 6 месяцев назад

I saw the slap described in one of the first manuals from HK, both MP5 and G3. That said, it's more important on the G3 since the bolt might very well not go into battery if you are too careful with it. Used both for many years until they were replaced by 416 and MP7s.

@stickiedmin6508 6 месяцев назад

@@Kraakesolv It's curious that they waited until the PSG-1 and/or the G41 to try putting a manual bolt closure thingy on the weapons. The rationale for the device on the PSG-1 was that the operator of such a weapon would sometimes find themselves in a situation where they would want to stay as quiet as possible, making a noisy reload undesirable. With the manual bolt closure, they could let the cocking handle ride forward slowly and quietly, then push the bolt home with their right thumb. It would follow surely, that a similar device would have been just as useful on the SD variants for exactly the same reason? When quiet, and stealth are the objectives, noisy and loud reloading sounds aren't exactly desirable, no matter how cool or stylish they might look. The bolt closure on the G41 incidentally, had nothing to do with being quiet - HK were trying to compete for a universal NATO rifle and worried that the Americans would get upset if there wasn't a forward assist, like on the M-16...

The slap is one of the reasons this weapon is so iconic and why it's captured the public imagination as much as it has, to the point we still talk about it today and consider it the quintessential smg. I like to think that on whichever weapon the slap was introduced for, during the prototyping or trial stages for the weapon, one of the testers slapped the cocking lever and HK realised such a unique method of prepping the gun would make it stand out so went with it.

@archer8492 6 месяцев назад

I think the MP5 is probably one of the first guns I was ever aware of growing up as a specific type and model of firearm that I could recognise across different films and games (probably thanks largely to Die Hard and The Matrix). It's undoubtedly iconic, and just seems so perfectly engineered that I always enjoy seeing them being used and manipulated as all the sounds and movements are just so satisfying. Great episode, glad the venerable MP5 finally got covered in this series.

@JS-ui5ew 6 месяцев назад

Bundeswehr not encouraging the slap may have been to do with the largely conscript army at the time? Manual of arms may have been adapted due to concerns around largely having civvies with not much training or time?

@JS-ui5ew 6 месяцев назад

The slap they've referenced would be the same for G3 and MP5 as they're using the same system. MP5 was (is?) used by the Feldjäger which is the military police but never by the regular forces as far as I am aware (exclude special forces here who always have more leeway in what they use).

@Gameprojordan 6 месяцев назад

Manually moving the handle also stops unwanted flagging of the gun. Someone could slap the gun and push it downward or two the side by accident. The force of hitting the gun on its side and only having your 1 hand actually holding onto the gun could cause it to pivot

@odinlindeberg4624 6 месяцев назад

You can chamber a round in the G3 by slowly pulling the handle out of its notch and then letting go, so the spring does the work. If you do the same with an MP5 that's been in use for some time as most of the Bund's weapons always have, the spring might not build up the momentum to push the chamber into a fully closed position if you don't hold it the whole way back. As far as I know, anyway.

@user-bt8xr5si9y 6 месяцев назад

@@JS-ui5ewYeah. The weapon is only used by KSK, combat swimmers, military police and long-distance scouts within the Bundeswehr in various versions.

Back in the day we called it the "girlie-5" (In Norwegian it rhymes with MP-5), because the standard military assault rifle at the time was the G3,- variant AG3 which is, as Alex pointed out, in the same family, but very much the big brother. So support and base security usually had the MP5. 18 to 20 year olds being what they are off course tacitly mocked the non-grunt's little sister of weapons. Being a signaller now in the national guard I have the MP5. Having used and handled it over a few years, I now see how it fit's its role perfectly. Accurate, lighter, rugged and reliable.

@gagewesterhouse9558 6 месяцев назад

For those who don't know guns; 'DOWN-LOADING' a magazine means loading your magazine NOT to capacity. For example, with the MP5, you'd load 28 or 29 rounds instead of 30. The reason you would do this is for reasons of RELIABILITY. If your gun or the magazine you are using is having ammunition feeding issues, 'down-loading' can alleviated those issues. Usually, you only see people doing this with magazines that are either higher capacity or, much more commonly (interestingly enough), LOWER capacity than that gun's usual magazines. For example, with the AKs, which take 30-round magazines usually, often you'll see people 'down-load' their 10-round mags to 9 or 8, if they live somewhere the law makes them use 10-rounds mags. Edit; you also would download your magazine if you have a new magazine and the soring is so stiff that it doesn't have enough give to it to easily seat your magazine in the gun.

Clicked to find out what slapped means. Also mp5 is the best looking gun to me, especially with a silencer.

Always down to see Jonathan geek out about the MP5

MP5 became one of my favorite firearms from playing as HUNK in Resident Evil and as the SAS in Call of Duty 4. It's easily top 3, alongside the Thompson SMG and the M1 Garand. I wish I could fire a real one of these sometime.

Was happy to hear the hk slap song!

I think the MP5SD is the perfect apocalypse weapon. Primarily as you can feed it whatever 9mm ammo you find and the porting in the barrel makes it sub-sonic and very quiet. With a regular SMG or rifle you still need sub-sonic ammo to make good use of the suppressor

Getting slap happy before the new year.

Even though my heart will always belong to the P90 and MP7, there's no denying that the MP5 is the most iconic Sub-Machine Gun.

The MP5 and the AK47/AK74 are the most iconic weapons of the cold war era.

Even before I really started getting into guns I loved the mp5. Easily one of the greatest guns ever made.

You can see the helicopter guy doing the slap in james bond tomorrow never dies.

Okay, now I want to see Jonathan on the range, maybe a guest on Garand Thumb. He's surely a good shot with all his handling experience.

The discussion rapidly became awkward when a friend who owns an mp5 described the slap as "giving her a nice spank"

This is the submachine gun MP5, the keeper of 9mm bullets and tracer rounds from Heckler & Koch in Germany, which makes thousands of iconic weapons from throughout history.
