The MP5 is one of the most powerful submachine guns in the GTA series, with devastating effects to both the player and non-player targets alike. It is arguably a better substitute for the [[Micro Uzi]] and [[Micro-SMG]], holding a better rate of fire and more damage per round. However, like the [[Micro-SMG]], the MP5 has the disadvantage of disallowing the player from discharging the weapon while running, allowing the player to only stand or stride while talking aim or shooting. Since its inception in GTA Vice City, the weapon is favored by both the [[Federal Bureau of Investigation|FBI]] (and GTA IV's [[Federal Bureau of Investigation#Grand Theft Auto IV|FIB]]) and GTA IV's [[NOOSE]] tactical units as a weapon of choice. All renditions of the MP5 hold 30 rounds per magazine. | The MP5 is one of the most powerful submachine guns in the GTA series, with devastating effects to both the player and non-player targets alike.

GTA Vice City and San Andreas feature an MP5A3, and GTA Liberty City Stories features the MP5K which looks a little lengthier than the other renditions. In Vice City Stories, the SP89 (a civilian version of the MP5K which is an anachronism for 1984) makes an appearance, but the model is more like combined parts of the MP5A3, MP5K and MP5SD. In GTA IV, the MP5A3 was scarpped and was turned into an MP10. In GTA Chinatown Wars the MP5 is called the SMG, just like any other rendition. | ||
