The MP5 was first introduced by Heckler & Koch in 1966, under the name HK54. This name comes from HK's old numbering system: the "5" designates the model as a submachine gun, while the "4" identifies it as being chambered for 9 x 19 mm ammunition. The current name dates from when it was officially adopted by the West German government for use by its police and border guard as the Maschinenpistole 5, or MP5, in mid-1966. The GSG 9, the counter-terrorist part of the Border Guard, then introduced the MP5 to other Western counter-terrorist units.
