Heckler & Koch MP7

-
The "Heckler & Koch" MP-7 Submachine Gun was developed at the end 1999. This is a new generation weapon which is classified as a Personal Defense Weapon (PDW). Although it's internal design and automatic principle is similar to the submachine guns the MP-7 takes intermediate position between the submachine guns and the assault rifles. When high-quality body armor has begun to make guns that fire pistol ammunition (such as HK's earlier MP5 or USP) ineffective. Hence to such respond HK designed the MP7 (along with the brand new UCP pistol, which uses the same ammunition) to penetrate body armor, but small enough to be used in place of either a pistol or a submachine gun.

The HK MP7, first announced in 2000, entered production in 2001 and, by early 2007, is officially adopted by German military, as well as some German special police units, such as KSK. The British Military Police issues HK MP7A1 to its personnel since 2005, and it is believed that some South Korean special forces also use MP7A1

The MP7A1 is somewhat unusual for weapon of such small size, since it is gas operated, rotating bolt design, which strongly resembles the action of the HK G36 assault rifle.

Mr.Lee failed to perform a couple of important lesson which lead to his demise which is when one park he’s or her’s vehicle especially a 3 tonne truck to unload any sort of goods it pays to have a common sense to turn off the engine. No matter how long the stop takes or how long one driving experience has in his/her entire life. And secondly the parking brakes are installed for a reason. It pays to use it when parking. Where Mr.Lee fail in common sense makes up in creativity or in this case uniqueness on how to get a first class ticket boarding flight to St. Peter’ gate. As Mr.Lee got down from his 3 tonne truck to unload the bricks he left the engine running while uploading the brick from the back of the truck. The 3 tonne truck moved backwar...
