Can anyone identify this type of gun?

Our police usually use the MP5 but this looks a bit different!

It looks similar to a Steyer AUG. But its not. not sure, it looks like the french pup guns. (rounds twards the stock, barrel shorter.) Looks similar to the Israeli tabor as well. Not sure bud.

The type of gun is the G36C. You can get a G36K but the barrel length is short on this gun indicating it is the type C version being carried here.

MP5s are used, commonly, by UK Police as is the Glocks pistols. The M82 can be use for sniping along with SAR21.

I suppose the list of currently used Firearms, by UK Police, goes on and on.

That type of weapon was derived from the old UZI.

It has gone through a lot of modifications and has a larger calaba round, but the principle is the same.

It is designed primeraly for street fighting at close quarters. Not much more than a city block at a time. Basically classified as a machine pistol.

Don't know if they have the same problem but the old UZI was prone to accidental discharge. Fixed firing pin.
