Question: After
reading the comparison between the AK47 and the M16, I
was wondering if you can provide us with some info on
the MP5 and FAL.
Answer: The MP5 and FAL can not be compared since
they are 2 completely different weapons, but since many
people have also asked about them here is some info. The
MP5 is a 9mm sub-machine
gun, made by the German company Heckler & Koch. It is
used in special ops or in security activity and not suitable
for urban warfare except for operations behind enemy lines.
I don't like 9mm subs because they lack velocity. The
best gun in this category is the
UMP-45
which is made by the same company Heckler & Koch. The
UMP-45 is a 12mm sub-machine gun, very accurate and has
an extremely high impact velocity. The
FAL,
is made by Belgian FN, a 7.62 mm NATO and is probably
the most famous rifle in Lebanon among the Kataeb and
Ahrar because it was widely used at the beginning of the
war. The FAL is very accurate and a lethal weapon when
used for medium range sniping, 250-750 meters, even without
scopes. It cannot be used in urban or guerilla warfare,
except for support. It is extremely heavy and lengthy.
