The Walther MP series of submachine guns had been developed by Karl Walther company in 1963. This family included 2 weapons MPL (MachinenPistole Lang - Long Submachine gun) and MPK (MachinenPistole Kurz - Short Submachine gun). The only difference between MPL and MPK was in barrel and barrel shroud lenghts, otherwise both guns were similar. The MPL and MPK were used by some German police forces, and only one significant export sale was to the Mexican navy. Production of the MPL/MPK had been ceased in 1987.

Both MPK and MPL are blowback operated weapons, with "L"-shaped bolts, most part of which, in forward position, was located above the barrel, to save the lenght of the receiver. The receiver had been made from stamped steel and formed a vented heatshield in the front part of the gun. Guns were select-fire, with safety-fire selector switch at the left side of the receiver, behind the trigger. Sights were of flip-up type with 2 settings, for 100 and 200 meters (for MPL), side-folding buttstock was made from thin steel tubes.

durfte letztens mal mit einer "L" eines kollegen schiessen.

verhält sich relativ moderat und angenehm.

leider fand ich die visierung etwas mickrig und nicht optimal.
