HK 53

About The Heckler & Koch HK-53 Machinegun

The HK-53 is a very compact version of the HK-33. It is similar in look to the MP-5 but uses the .223 Remington rifle bullet instead of the MP-5's 9mm Luger handgun round. The HK-53 was first produced and distributed in the mid-1970's and is still in production. The HK-53 uses the same delayed-blowback and roller system that the HK-33 utilizes to reduce the impact of recoil.

Additional information on the HK-53 can be found at Modern Firearms HK-53 and HK-53 page.
