LEGO Gun of the Week - MP5K by ACYProduction
Posted by Merrie on 23rd May 2017
Some guns are popular for target practice, others are popular for hunting. This week's LEGO Gun of the Week is popular for Special Ops. That's a pretty high threshold for cool. The MP5 is a compact, sub machine gun previously favored by United States Counter Terrorism Units including Delta Force. This weapon is an air-cooled, selective fire delayed blowback operated 9mm Parabellum with a roller-delayed bolt. It has a 30 round capacity and is ideal for closed quarter combat. Developed in Germany in the 1960s, this is one of the most widely used sub machine guns the world around. This special LEGO edition may not be used for Special Operations anytime soon, but it does have some equally awesome features to its real life inspiration including a working trigger, a working magazine release, fire selector, and sights. Instagram user ACYProduction also provided some stunning photography for this piece. So if you'd like to see more builds with equally awesome photos, check that account out now!
