Heckler & Koch Briefcase Gun

The latest Armourer’s Bench video looks at the ‘Spezialkoffer’ or ‘Special Case’ developed by H&K in the late 1970s. It was designed as a discreet, clandestine weapon system designed for personal protection details who wanted to keep things business casual. The ‘Special Case’ offered the firepower of an MP5K in a concealed package which could be brought into action rapidly.

I also put together a full accompanying blog, with more photos, about the ‘Spezialkoffer’ over on the TAB website, check that out here!

Developed by H&K in the late 1970s, the 'Special Case' was designed as a discreet, clandestine weapon system designed for personal protection details. The 'Special Case' offered the firepower of an MP5K in a concealed package which could be rapidly brought into action.

I discuss the history of HK's briefcase gun and take a look at how the MP5K fit inside and how the trigger mechanism worked to allow the gun to be fired.  

Hey guys,

So firstly our next episode is out later today - it’s on the very cool Heckler & Koch Briefcase Gun!

Secondly, Youtube are rolling out a new ‘Premiers’ feature that schedules a video and sends out reminders when it goes live at 10.30PM GMT, 5.30PM EST 2.30PM PST. More importantly the new feature gives you the option of a live chat feature when the video becomes live so you guys can jump into the chat with me and tell me how bad my German pronunciation is in the video!

I think the live chat will be fun if you guys want to ask questions or anything like that - give anything a try once, hope you’ll join me! - Matt
