My oldest son was able to play with these last year on an experimental basis. The M4 does have a night scope. Does anyone recognize the scope name/model? I believe he said the sub guns were MP7s.

The MP7s were being evaluated at the USMC warfare lab. As I understand it, they are being evaluated as replacements for M9 Berettas for aircrew, tankers and others. My son thought they were pretty neat to fire!

I love the ergonomics of the MP7A1, it's size and fit-to-the-hand, are just perfect! Anything longer seems too big, and anything smaller too tiny. :)

The MOD police have bought 1500 of them in total. Mainly used to guard the likes of nuclear plants, gas plants and such things. The MOD police ones are all set up as semi automatic.

Heresa couple of photos I found around of them armed with it.
