The Heckler & Koch MP5 is a submachine gun which appears throughout the Hitman series.
Description[]
Hitman: Codename 47[]
The MP5 is one of the games least common weapons, only appearing in four levels. It has a higher rate of fire compared to the Uzi.
Hitman 2: Silent Assassin[]
The MP5 is one of the two concealable fully automatic weapons available to Agent 47 (the other being the Uzi). It is first acquired in Invitation to a Party and Tracking Hayamoto. It holds 30 rounds in its magazine. It also has a suppressed variant; the MP5SD3, which is not concealable.
Hitman: Contracts[]
The MP5 can only be found in the last level, Hunter and Hunted. It also holds 30 rounds. It is used exclusively by the GIGN. Unlike other games, it is not concealable. A suppressed version of the weapon can be unlocked by completing Slaying a Dragon with Silent Assassin rating. This version replaces the aforementioned MP5SD3.
Hitman: Blood Money[]
A customizable MP5 is available under the name "SMG Tactical" and can be fitted with a silencer, butt stocks and a short barrel modification. Again, its concealable trait has been brought back.
There is also an uncustomizable version used by NPCs and can be picked up by 47 as collectible weapon. It is based on the MP5A2. Like its customizable counterpart, it is two-handed and can be concealed.
HITMAN™[]
Appears as the "HX-7", based on the Heckler & Koch MP5A3 once again, and with a 25-round capacity magazine. This version is not concealable, but can be placed into containers.

Trivia[]
- In Codename 47, the weapon is the most accurate fully automatic weapon, even using the weapon without firing in bursts won't affect the accuracy much. By Blood Money, the MP5 has decreased accuracy and increased recoil..
- The MP5K-PDW is seen earlier in Contracts mission Deadly Cargo, in the loading image. It was not featured in game.
- Strangely enough, in most cases, the MP5 can be concealed, despite it being fairly large and two-handed.
- In Silent Assassin, there is a suppressed MP5, but this an unconcealable variant called the SMG-SD6. This suppressed MP5 only appears on Hidden Valley, At the Gates and Shogun Showdown. It can also be unlocked as a Silent Assassin reward.
- In Contracts, there is a suppressed variant that can only be legitimately obtained by beating Slaying a Dragon with a Silent Assassin rating.
- The MP5's real-world successor, the Heckler & Koch MP7, is available in Blood Money. Unlike the MP5, it is one-handed and less visible to NPCs.
- In the PC version of Contracts, the MP5 and its suppressed counterpart can be spawned using the console command "Give MP5".
