    Feeding the MP5: 147-grain HSTs, 147-grain GDHPs, and 135-grain CritDuty +P?

    At this point, most of my defensive handgun ammo is either 147-grain HSTs or 147-grain Gold Dots, standard pressure.

    I also have some Hornady Critical Duty 135-grain +P that I bought because the HSTs are so hard to find these days.

    Is anyone aware of any issues I might have running them out of an MKE (Turkish) manufacture MP5 or MP5K?

    Thanks!

    No ability to comment on the exact loads you mention. That said, my MKE SBR (it began life as an ATI imported AT-94P) has digested everything I have fed it from crappy Tula steel case to 147gr Winchester Depend ammo with no issues. All shooting has been done from MKE or Korean contract mags.
