	It could be a (mock up) [[Sadu ASALT-96]] . The only different is the sight at the back as far as I can see.

			:Unfortunately, I highly doubt it. First off the Sadu is basically an Uzi with the fire control group moved so it retains most of the standard Uzi receiver. This gun appears to have a standard MP5 style receiver which is a totally different shape, and it would be impossible to fit an Uzi type receiver inside it. As far as I can tell there is no part of this that points to it being a Sadu, if for no other reason than it looks too much like a real MP5. --[[User:Commando552\|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552\|talk]]) 20:04, 2 March 2014 (EST)

	If it was, I doubt it was filmed on Ramstein itself.

	::No, I don't think the reverse stretch is actually a "real" reverse stretch by the look of it, but rather a reverse stretch built from the same copy/mockup/whatever. There are better shots of these MP5s in the last episode, such as here:[[ File:Strike Back S04E10 163.jpg \|thumb\|600px\|none\|]]In this shot you can see that the weapon is slightly "cruder" in appearance than a real MP5, like that hollow tube cocking handle and the extra pins in the trigger group. Even the magazine has what appears to be a random bolt or pin going through the bottom of it. I almost wondered if they are another gun entirely that is inside an airsoft MP5 shell or something weird like that, as it is odd that the receiver of the weapon is dead on, yet it has weird differences that don't belong on a real MP5. --[[User:Commando552\|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552\|talk]]) 21:08, 22 November 2013 (EST)		::No, I don't think the reverse stretch is actually a "real" reverse stretch by the look of it, but rather a reverse stretch built from the same copy/mockup/whatever.
