K'NEX MP5A2
While gun manufacturers are consistently creating new products to keep up with today's technology, some firearms just out right refuse to accept being replaced. The H&K family of MP5s are a perfect example of a firearm that will not relinquish its spots in many organizations and militaries around the world. Combined with many iconic movies utilizing the guns, the A2/4 variants of MP5 quickly took the spot as my all time favorite smg. This K'NEX replica foregoes my urge to someday hold and shoot the infamous rifle.
