Well lets say thats what police says. Some MP-5s are semiauto only, but police also have automatic weapons like MP-5s, silenced MP-5s, sterlings, Swedish-K:s, Suomis and H&K and Sig assault rifles.

Politically correct term for semi-auto MP-5 is "support weapon". Most police officers use "support weapon". I have trained with our local PD and in that training we used full auto version of MP-5.
