Heckler & Koch HK77UKS*

  Developed after the HK77UK, the HK77UKS is a continuation from the branch in the United Kingdom. Using the same ceramic frame, and firing the 9 x 7mm caseless round, with a 45-round ammunition clip, the HK77UKS is a carbine with no equal.
  The weapon uses a rather different approach to maintain it's small size. Instead of a 'typical' ammunition clip, it is fed from a hopper that is built inside of the sliding stock. The rounds are stored perpendicular (like the FN P90) and fed through a special extraction system. The rounds are stored in a 9 x 5 arrangement, with five columns of nine rounds. The extraction system is based on the never made LMG11 system. Designer Karl Erns used this as the method to operate a high capacity weapon with the small size of a carbine. In fact, the HK77UKS is only slightly larger than the FN P90. This is fed into a recoil operated, rotating breach system that aligns the round to the chamber of the weapon, using a small flap. The firing pin used to fire the round is right behind it, thus eliminating the rod needed to absorb the recoil, allowing the weapon to be smaller. With this design, this is able to provide an impressive 500 rpm capability. The receiver itself is below the barrel, right after the chamber. Thus producing a weapon with good all around firepower and large ammunition capacity, yet staying compact.

  Clip design

  A small port allows the stock to function normally. Ejection of jammed rounds is accomplished only on the right side of the weapon. The barrel ends in a sound supressor, the same used on the HK77UKSD, with a vertical foregrip behind it to control it during full automatic fire. The collapsing stock features an autostabilization system, while the compact frame allows it to be carried almost anywhere. It is fully "smart", with an integral Smartlink II system combined with a second generation rangefinder to improve accuracy. The selector switch is the standard "0-1-3-30" configuration. One major difference between the HK77UK is the use of a picatenny rail in place of the scope system found on the former. This allows a wide variety of optical and electronic aiming devices to be used. Offered is an iron sight system that can be mounted if needed. It only costs 200¥ and is available with the weapon. The weapon, whether barrel is the same length, keeping the same 'footprint' as well as keeping costs down. This of course does not make the weapon unreliable, but a sure way of keeping performance similar, regardless of version.They also offer clip holders using the TAG FireForce II system, with a specialized holder that holds two clips.
  Dissasembling the weapon for cleaning is also easy, with the weapon designed to be. The Rotating Breech system, despite it's complexity, is also easy to clean. A maintenance kit is installed in the butt of the rifle that has the proper tools to clean it. Additional kits cost 50¥ and weigh .2 kilgrams (weight for the weapon includes this). An instructional chip is also included with the weapon.
