Heckler & Koch or simply “H&K” is one of the worlds best known gun brands. Their iconic MP5 is almost synonymous with Police and Military Special Operations and Counter-Terrorism units. Known for very unique and futuristic polymer designs, precise engineering, and high-performance.
Their name, specifically the later half, can still cause some trouble for many gun enthusiasts. While the German name ‘Koch’ actually has a number of valid pronunciations, it interesting to note that the when I visited their booth at this year’s Shot Show 2022, their staff representative insisted the official pronunciation was decidedly more American sounding, than German.
