YESS!!!!!!!! This is sorely needed! Thanks for doing this! You have a typo that I didn't want to mess with because I know you are working on this currently but to make sure you see it... Here. Thanks again! --Zackmann08 00:25, 31 March 2012 (CDT)
- Thanks, I probably would have missed that. No problem, I was bored and decided to make this.----JazzBlackBelt-- 00:49, 31 March 2012 (CDT)
Good job but I think the MK5KN is wrong, that is just an MP5K with a Navy trigger group. The MP5KN is an MP5K with the Navy group but with the longer threaded and lugged barrel found on the PDW. The PDW was actually developed from the MP5KN simply by adding a folding stock. --commando552 03:51, 31 March 2012 (CDT)
Great site, thank you a lot!! Fantastic idea! - hchris
Varients of other weapons
While I know it's really a G3 varient I think that the Flemming HK51K should go on this page as it can be confused for a MP5K from some angles.

There is no possible way someone will confuse this big old mag for an MP5K Excalibur01 22:57, 3 May 2012 (CDT)

HK53?
Why do we have the HK53 on the list? It isn't a 5.56 version of the MP5, it's a carbine version of the HK33. Jeddostotle7 4:26, 3 May 2012 (PST)
- It's not an exact guide as like the other ID Guides it covers things that look like a MP5 and could be confused by someone who isn't an expert on these things Rockwolf66 19:52, 3 May 2012 (CDT)
- True, true. I just hope we can get it more cleaned up. Jeddostotle7 7:43, 3 May 2012 (PST)
- What's not clean about it?----JazzBlackBelt-- 21:45, 3 May 2012 (CDT)

Remove the HK53 since it isn't a variant of the MP5. If you think about it, all the HK guns including the MP5 and the HK33 are different calibers of the G3 Excalibur01 22:58, 3 May 2012 (CDT)
- This isn't a list of MP5 variants (we already have that), but rather a guide to all things that could be considered an "MP5" by the average person. If they see something that they know is an MP5, but not which model, then they can come here and use the glossary and descriptions to determine the exact model. Much like the HK94, the HK53 is not an MP5, but looks close enough to it to be confused with the real deal. However, I always defer to the mods, so off it goes.----JazzBlackBelt-- 00:06, 4 May 2012 (CDT)
- Well I AM a mod and I don't think the HK53 fits as even a look a like to an MP5 Excalibur01 07:22, 4 May 2012 (CDT)
- It looks like an MP5 with a thicker magazine. I have no idea how you could possibly think it doesn't look like an MP5. On the other hand, the lead-in would need altering to include it, since at the moment it says "This page is intended as a guide to identify the various H&K manufactured MP5 variants" rather than "this is a guide to identify MP5 variants and weapons which could casually be confused for such." Weapons which aren't MP5 family (like the 5.56 MP5-alikes) would probably be better in a seperate table specifically saying they're not MP5 variants. Evil Tim 07:39, 4 May 2012 (CDT)
