[edit] Government Defense Weapon

"Personal Defense Weapon" implies this is a weapon ordinary people can use to defend themselves. Unfortunately, illegitimate criminal governments "prohibit" ordinary people from owning firearms capable of firing "more than one round per trigger pull" or "armor-piercing" ammunition.

That being the case, until those who enact and enforce gun prohibitions are rightfully rounded up and systematically exterminated, the proper name for this should therefore be Government Defense Weapon, State Defense Weapon, or State Terrorism Facilitator. -- Kill the Gun Grabbers (128.2.141.33 03:47, 15 October 2005 (UTC))

Ummm... Actually the article merely defines the term, which is already is common use. The second paragraph states:

as defensive weapons for troops whose primary activities does not include use of small arms: vehicle and tank crew members, artillery crews etc.

Indicating the weapon is designed for soldiers. Megapixie 06:31, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

I was taking issue with the term and definition itself, which is in "common use" only amongst various government thug organizations, their suppliers, and the niche media outlets which cater to them.

Also of note is that if an ordinary person was found to be in possession of these types of firearms, the term would immediately change to "Illegal Black Baby-killing Assault Death Weapon", or some such. -- Kill The Gun Grabbers (85.31.186.13 07:39, 19 October 2005 (UTC))

[edit] Wrong Picture

The picture shown on the page doesn't actually belong to a H&K MP5K PDW but simply to a MP5A3K: the PDW variant of the MP5K has a folding stock and a longer (similar to the one of the normal models) barrell. Could someone please correct this? I would do it myself, but I'm not good at finding pictures (especially with all the rights-related issues).
