Overview

The Heckler & Koch UMP (Universale Maschinenpistole, 'Universal Submachine Gun') is a blowback-operated submachine gun developed by German manufacturer Heckler & Koch in the late 1990s. Designed as a lighter and more cost-effective alternative to the roller-delayed HK MP5, the UMP is chambered primarily in .45 ACP, though versions in 9×19mm (UMP9) and .40 S&W (UMP40) are also available. It features extensive use of polymer for the receiver and furniture, a side-folding stock, and Picatinny rails for accessory mounting. The UMP has been adopted by various law enforcement agencies and military units worldwide.
