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.

They must have been ERTI-task force (probably Karhu), then. The military grade hardware for them is off limits by the law otherwise. If I may ask, what kind of a circumstance was it when you trained with them - I'm just curious, since I have some history of co-operating with various PDs in Finland and I've never seen them carry a fully automatic weapon.
(ERTI: erityistilanne = special circumstances, usually siege or heavily armed criminals etc.)
