Modern production of the Girandoni air rifle, except not extremely delicate

The thing shot .51 caliber BB's with the muzzle velocity of a .45!

They don't sell MP5SFs here, at least not that I've seen. They are sold to and usually seen in the hands of various Europen Law Enforcement Agencies who want the MP5 system with a semi-auto only firemode. It seems a bit strange, but some LE guys over there don't see the need for full auto weapons, and if you think about it, full auto is mostly for suppression, and I can't see many scenarios where suppressive fire could be called upon in LE duty, aside from North Hollywood type gun battles, but those are few and far between.

Oddly enough they will do all kinds of firemodes on the MP5s. I saw a guy selling some MP5s for his LE agency here in America and they had semi-auto and 2 round burst firemodes, no 3 round or auto. Interesting stuff.
