HK SP5 Sporting Pistol

The HK SP5 was developed by Heckler & Koch as a semi-automatic, civilian sporting pistol (hence the “SP” prefix) that matches the look and ergonomics of the famous MP5 submachine gun. It is actually the second iteration of an HK commercial/civilian pistol inspired by the MP5 design.

The SP5 is designed and manufactured to meet the strict definition of a civilian pistol in the USA and can not be altered to fire in the full automatic mode. Other features on the SP5 — including adjustable target sights and the absence of a foregrip confirm its identity an a commercial product approved for sporting purposes by both the U.S. and German governments. The backbone of the SP5 is the roller-delayed blowback operating system, which is legendary for its accuracy, reliability, and smooth shooting dynamic. Originally perfected on the Heckler & Koch G3 rifle, it has been used on several other HK firearms still serving today around the world.

The SP5 is manufactured completely in Heckler & Koch’s Oberndorf factory in southwest Germany. It retains many of the critical elements of the MP5, including its precision-machined components and attention to detail. This high level of quality and workmanship is a result of making the SP5 in the same factory, on the same lines, and by the same workforce that has been making MP5s for years.
