The USC or Universal Self loading Carbine is a version of the UMP that could be owned by private citizens. It was designed following the Assault Weapons Ban of 1994 and conforms to those standards. Changes from the original UMP include a "thumbhole" type stock and grip (versus the pistol grip of the UMP), longer barrel, limited 10-round magazine, and semi-automatic only trigger group and action. H&K no longer manufactures this rifle. It can be considered a collector's item as the number actually produced may have been quite small.
