Uzi in German service
Brother in Arms,
I cannot confirm your info. I served from 1985 to 1986 in the regular German forces as Panzergrenadier/Jäger. As MP we used solely the MP2A1 (with folding stock). Noone that I talked to in the following years had an MP5 as weapon. From all I know, the MP5 was used by specialized units only (KSK, Kampfschwimmer, Feldjäger und Fernspäher). The German Wikipedia lists weapons of the Bundeswehr. There it says, the Uzi remained in service up to 2002.
Here's the Link. Unfortunately it's all in German, hope Info is still usable!
