Hi Jonathan, I was actually trained on this configuration. The way it is deployed is: left-hand carry with the muzzle pointing BACKWARDS; drop the case; bring the gun up holding the handle whilst swinging it around into muzzle forward position and to eye level; putting your right hand on the pistol grip and trigger, aim and fire.

Masamune Shirow likes that. Ghost in the shell shows a few things very similar.

Amazing that these things were actually made, and aren't just movie props! I'm surprised they recommended using it with the handle attached though, since that entire unit comes off with a single lever press. I guess with an item like this, if you ever need to use it, you probably need to use it as fast as humanly possible. So it makes sense to hold it in the off hand, drop the case, and move it straight into the dominant hand in one fluid motion, without bothering to hit the handle release. Still, really really cool stuff.

"Zerfallkoffer" would be closer to "fall apart suitcase" but "break away case" isn't far off so either would be good. As for pronounciation, the german Z at the start of the word is a hard z - much closer to a [ts]-sound (like in Tsunami or like "the explosive hiss sound of a snake") but aside from that the pronounciation is excellent. The pronounciation of "Schießkoffer" is pretty much flawless.

I had a play with one of these once in the very early 1990's and never saw or heard of it again. The RMP had it for CP duties. No idea how many were in service in the UK or if it was just for demo. The drill as I was told, was apparently to carry in left hand, drop case, keep hold of the carrying handle and get off the first burst before swapping to front grip. I do remember you needed a grip of iron to depress the release.

The RMP never used the ops case for the MP5K as they never had any reason to be covertly armed when protecting embassy staff - it's on or its not, if you think you will need a long weapon then let them see you mean business, the MP5K was used because it fitted in a vehicle well but it wasnt liked that well. 14 Int had MP5 PDWs with the folding stock but they just stuck them inside a walkers day sack for concealment. This thing was aimed squarely at European markets where there were concerns with the Red Brigades and the Mafia going after business leaders and judges.

@@dr_dr HK probably sent it to them for free hoping they might buy more. Being useless yet cool to look at they probably decided to put it on one of the demonstration stands for a giggle. The Hk53 was the preferred bang stick as it just had a lot more poke at close range for getting through car windows and doors while being no bigger than the MP5A3.

NGL, the way the case flys open rather dramatically definitely adds to the cool factor.

Regarding the transition from carrying to shooting. Without handling the gun, the way of carrying suggested by the manual makes sense to me in way: If there's an immediate danger, you get your hand on the trigger without having to pass the grip at first, enabling quick firing while the other hand is still on the top handle. It's probably not very accurate or comfortable, but could have you spewing fire a tad quicker in the direction of the engagement.

This was clearly the inspiration for the bodyguards’ guns from the opening scene of the original Ghost in the Shell.

I hadn't seen this one before. I knew about the operational briefcase, but this is actually a lot more practical. A semiautomatic version with no foregrip would also be legal to carry for Americans with concealed carry permits, since it would technically be a pistol. The original operational briefcase would be classed as an "Any Other Weapon" because it can be fired in its disguised configuration. This one can only be fired when it is outside the briefcase, meaning the case is just the equivalent of a holster.

Considering pronounciation - the first two were spot on. Zerfallskoffer is spoken with a hard "Z". Like Tsar - Zar in German.

I think that, since your right hand has higher motor function than your left, it would be a slight bit quicker to do it as the manual says, as you can grab it quicker. And you already have a general idea where your right hand wants to hold a gun, whereas the left usually just follows suit. Just my thoughts. This would, obviously, be reversed for left handers.

@jonathanferguson1211

Жыл бұрын

This is so cool 😍

Carrying left makes sense because you can have your shooting hand on the pistol grip the moment the case breakes away, so you can start firing even with your left hand still on the case grip if every second counts. Then you can switch your left hand to the foregrip. You have one less transition before the first shot. So the manual is plausible.

Love the punchline at the end. 'So if I saw someone with a (hard shell) briefcase 💼 and a shifty pair of eyes 😎 walking around, I might be suspicious.' Same as you would be if you saw some guy walking around in a trenchcoat in Iraq probably.

I want this for my MP5K. MP5K is one of my favorite firearms that I own.

Thats such a cool intro

I guess nowadays all these weird guns(briefcase guns, shoot behind the corner guns, guns that collapse into a container, guns that can be concealed in a sleeve, etc.) would still find usage, but they would require updating to either similar PDW rounds to MP7 uses OR to heavy subsonic ammo like VAL or Whisper, depending on if the gun has space for silencer. Besides nowadays for most of them you can get far better sighting equipment that would allow to use them "off hand" or in weird positions like lasers(existed, but were weak, fragile, bulky and too expensive), red dots(existed, but had same trouble) and even direct feed(technically exists nowadays, but we're not on smartgun level yet. But someone like secret service can probably afford and maintain it).

"Whenever I see a man with a briefcase, I think he has an MP5 (and I am jealous)."

Great German pronunciation and spot-on translations.

I just re watched ghost in the shell they have inspired by this the guards in the opening scene

For stylized variants of this and the Mateba, check the brilliant 1995 anime Ghost In The Shell. Yes, "Fallkoffer" means breakaway case, or literally "drop case". People often ask me what "Heckler and Koch" means and I used to answer "Nothing, they're just two very ordinary family names." That's not right, since family names often refer to a location or a profession. Heckler & Koch means "Lumberjack and Cook".

I can contribute something to this. A friend's former husband was crafting the handle fired versions of these using MP5Ks in his garage during the early to mid 1970s. US, in Florida. As well as other briefcase models with suppressed Beretta pistols. Model 92s, and later 84s or 81s, if memory serves. She swore that the suppressors had Beretta factory markings. He had reportedly made many variations under a contract and was well paid. His client was supposedly an alphabet agency.

Gun aiming evolution in progress I guess.

not a german speaker (not a native english speaker either, so this might be really wrong), but zerfall pretty much means "to fall apart" so "break-away" seems to be a fitting translation.

Carry it left handed but with the muzzle pointing to the rear. Bring it up to fire by dropping the case and bringing it up across your body. Keep hold of the carry handle with your left and then grasp the pistol grip with your right hand and push the safety/change lever all the way down to "A". Lean into it with your weight then have at it.

Regarding the utility - consider the temperature. If one is in "comfortable," perhaps 10 to 20 degrees C temperatures, having even something as large as an MP-5K under an unbuttoned overcoat is reasonable. But as the temperature climbs, the overcoat becomes a severe hinderance. You overheat quickly, and just as importantly, you stand out because you're overdressed. Even a suit jacket has to become thinner and lighter to deal with warm weather. Wearing body armour would only increase the risk of heat stroke. On the other end of the scale, below 0 to -5C you'll need the jacket buttoned for your own comfort. Below -10 to -15, depending on the wind, you'll need a heavy parka. Trust me, trying to get something out of an inside pocket when it's below -15C is *not* easy, and pulling off your glove isn't a good choice either - at those temperatures, you'll start freezing exposed skin fairly quickly. But - assuming the weapon inside was setup with an oversized trigger guard - I'm pretty confident I could easily operate the Zerfallkoffer with my gloves on. Living in central Alberta, I spend 3 months of the year dressed for -20 or below and another 3 months dressed for +25 or higher. If I was an executive protection sort, I'd be very happy for a discrete weapon that didn't rely on hiding it under my coat!

First saw one of these used by the UK Special Police (Firearms Unit SO9?) for when President Reagan went to UK in the 1980s. US Secret Service were not allowed to carry weapons (at least openly) but SO9 carried these along with handguns and rifles (H&K 33 SG1s). Some other special units were involved due to the "Troubles". H&K USA in Arlington and later Chantilly had these in inventory, but the "reach in" style leather case and later Operations Case were demoed to Police and Federal Agencies, and the drop free case was not. Biggest buyer of these was Saudi Arabia. I had two H&K MP5Ka1 fixed sight SMGs in my 24 hour command post with these drop fee cases. I traded the Saudi Security officer in charge a whole bunch of Marlboro hardpack cartons of cigarettes for one. I had a H&K MP5K-Navy SMG with the long barrel, and it worked fine with this case. Sold it to a collector in Indiana years ago for the price of a new Jeep......he had more money and desire for things H&K than I would have thought possible. Still nice to see a H&K rarity documented outside of Germany and the Middle East! Nice content Jonathan!

13:50 Don't you just hate it when a guy starts fisting his briefcase, and said briefcase starts screaming? 😂

I suspect the reasoning behind carrying it in the left hand might be to get your right hand on the trigger more quickly. If you are in an extreme close quarters situation such as being indoors in the same room as your targets then it might be more important to get shots off quickly than to take proper aim. Depending on how sturdy the briefcase handle attachment is perhaps it is even viable to still hold on to that when you fire rather than switching grips?

Because you asked in German the 'z' isn't voiced. In English 'Zerfallkoffer' would be writen 'Cerfalkofer' or something similar. Translated it means "disintegrating briefcase".

Left hand carry for right hander makes sense to me, because if the gun is deployed there propably would already be an ongoing life threatening situtation and in that case the priority would be to get the firing hand on the gun first and be ready to fire immediately. Getting the support hand on the gun would be a secondary priority in my eyes.
