 SAFETY RULES
Please read this operator's manual before handling your firearm. The following safety
rules are placed in this manual by HK as an important reminder that firearm safety is your
responsibility. Firearms can be dangerous and can potentially cause serious injury, damage to
property or death, if handled im­prop­er­ly.

1. Never point a firearm at anyone or in any direction other than a SAFE direction, i.e. down range.
2. Treat all firearms as if they are always loaded.
3. Keep your finger off the trigger and out­side of the trigger guard until your sights are aligned on
the target and you are ready to fire.
4. Keep your finger off the trigger and outside of the trigger guard while loading or un­load­ing the
firearm.
5. Keep your finger off the trigger and outside of the trigger guard while pulling the firearm out of
a holster/carry rig/case or while returning it to a holster/carry rig/case.
6. Be sure of your target and the backstop beyond.
7. Never give a firearm to or take a firearm from anyone unless the action is open and the
magazine and/or chamber are free of any ammunition or brass.
8. Be sure that the ammunition you are using is factory loaded, is of the correct caliber for the
firearm in which it is to be used, and that it is not damaged in any way.
9. Before firing, remove the magazine from the firearm, lock the action open, make sure the
chamber is clear of any am­mu­ni­tion or brass, and check the barrel of the unloaded firearm for
any possible ob­struc­tions.
10. Before firing any firearm that is unfamiliar to you, make sure that you understand exactly how it
functions. A lack of familiarity with the firearm can result in serious accidents. Attend a certified
training course on any firearm which you intend to use or with which you are not sufficiently
familiar.
11. Always wear hearing and eye protection when using your firearm.
12. Keep all body parts, especially the hands and fingers, away from the muzzle to avoid injury or
burns.
13. Be sure that no part of either hand touches or interferes with the bolt. The bolt is moved
backward by the recoil force of the pistol during firing and may cause serious injury.
14. Firearms should be locked and stored separately from ammunition and beyond the reach of
chil­dren and/or any untrained individuals.
15. Avoid the use of any alcoholic beverages or drugs before or during your use of a firearm.
16. Discharging firearms in poorly ventilated areas, cleaning firearms, or handling ammunition may
result in exposure to lead; a substance known to be associated with birth defects, reproductive
harm and other serious injury. Have adequate ventilation at all times. Wash hands thoroughly
after exposure.

STOP! Know how to clear this pistol before attempting to operate.

1. Point the muzzle of the pistol in a safe direction and place the safety lever in the safe
position. Ensure the muzzle is pointed in a safe direction and that the operator’s fingers are
off the trigger and outside the trigger guard. Place the safety lever in the SAFE position (white
cartrtrdge symbol with white “X” through it). Safety lever is located on both sides of the
receiver.

2. Remove the magazine. Depress the magazine release on the right side of the receiver (release
lever for SP5) and remove the magazine from the magazine well.

3. Open and lock the bolt to the rear. Grasping the charging handle on the left side of the
reciever (located adjacent of the front sight) and move the bolt to the rear while keeping the
muzzle pointed in a safe direction. Place the charging handle in the upward, locking recess
notch. The bolt should be locked in the rear position. Watch for a cartridge or empty case to be
ejected out through the ejection port.

4. Inspect the chamber. Inspect the chamber for the presence of a cartridge or empty case by:
1. Visually inspecting the chamber through the open ejection port.
2. Physically inserting a finger through the magazine well and sweeping the chamber and feed
ramp area.
3. Removing any cartridges or empty cases from the chamber or from within the firearm.
The SP5/SP5K pistol is now con­ sid­
ered “Clear.” Additional safety information appears
throughout this manual.
WARNING! Read, understand, follow, and practice the safe firearms handling
instructions put forth in this manual. Failure to follow the safety rules and safe firearm
handling instructions taught in this manual may cause property damage, personal
injury, and/or death.

 SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION

The SP5 was developed by Heckler & Koch as a semi-automatic, civilian sporting pistol
(hence the “SP” prefix) that matches the look and ergonomics of the famous MP5
submachine gun. It is actually the second iteration of an HK commercial/civilian model
inspired by the MP5 design.

The SP5 is designed and manufactured to meet the strict definition of a civilian pistol in
the USA and cannot be altered to fire in the fully automatic mode.

For more comfortable shooting, the SP5 is equipped with an elastic “bungee” sling. The
sling is easily installed by snapping it onto the sling swivel hardware located on the rear of
the receiver. Using the sling makes firing the SP5 more stable and less fatiguing.

When shooting, the operator should push the SP5K forward against the tension of the
sling using a two-handed grip; ensuring the forward hand gasps the handguard and that
hands and fingers are kept well away from the front of the muzzle.

ALL NFA RULES APPLY. WARNING: 1. The addition of the H&K stock to a H&K type
pistol with a barrel shorter than 16 inches in length results in the manufacturing of a
short-barreled rifle (SBR) which falls within the classification of firearms subject to NFA
controls [26 U.S. Code §5845(a)(3)]. Even if the pistol is not assembled into the butt
stock, possession of the pistol and the butt stock would constitute a short barrel rifle
(SBR) which may not be lawfully possessed unless it is registered to the possessor in
the National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record in advance. 2. The Addition of
the H&K stock to a H&K type pistol with a barrel of 16 inches in length or longer results
in the manufacturing of a lawful sporting rifle. Prior to converting the pistol into a rifle,
ensure you follow the guidance in 18 U.S. Code § 922 (r) and 27 CFR 478.39. It is YOUR
responsibility to ensure that all laws and regulations are followed.

 SECTION 4 FUNCTION AND OPERATION

OPERATING PRINCIPLE IN BRIEF

The cycle of operation is a reoccurring sequence of mechanical events which takes place
in the operation of this self-loading firearm.

There are three commonly accepted operating principles used to operate an auto
loading firearm. They are utilization of the kinetic energy released as the round is fired.
The powder in a modern cartridge is converted in a half dozen milliseconds from a dry
powder to expanding gases 900 to 1,000 times the volume of the powder. Additionally
the pressure of this expanding gas can average 38,000 psi with a peak of over 43,000 psi
in a 9 mm x 19 cartridge.

This firing causes many things to happen. First, as the gases expand the bullet moves
from the case into the barrel and the force required to move the bullet causes an exact
force to be exerted in the opposite direction. This will become recoil energy and is the
power behind two of the operating principles.

Second, the gases behind the bullet are continuing to expand. They push the bullet down
the bore imparting spin to the bullet by the inscription of the bullet on the lands and
grooves of the bore. These grooves are in the shape of a spiral which makes the bullet
turn as it travels down the barrel. It can achieve a rate of spin of almost 80,000 rpm in a 9
mm. The expanding gases if vented and applied to pistons or rods can be made to power
the mechanism of the auto loader.

One of the features of the gas operated gun is that the barrel is stationary and that the
gas is vented from the barrel forward of the mid point of the barrel. This creates a delay
which enables the bullet to leave the muzzle and the pressure to drop to a safe level prior
to the action opening.

In the recoil operated system the barrel and breech, barrel and bolt, barrel and slide
remain closed while the mechanism is in recoil until the bullet leaves the bore and the
pressure drops to a safe level. This is done through timing, but the barrel in a recoil
system moves. Examples are numerous as all Browning design pistols are recoil operated
including pistols like the HK USP series, HK45 series, P30 series, P2000 series, and VP
series.

Blowback is another method of operation using recoil energy and includes two types,
simple and the delayed. The simple blowback system uses the mass of the bolt to cause
the delay necessary for the bullet to leave the muzzle. Many fully automatic submachine
guns and .22 LR semi-automatic firearms use simple blowback.

Delayed blowback however, instead of using the mass of the bolt, incorporates a
mechanical “disadvantage” which must be overcome to unlock the bolt and open the
action. In the case of the HK SP5 Series (and the HK MP5) disadvantage is caused by the
rollers engaging the barrel extension and locking piece. This type of bolt system enables
the bolt mechanism to be lightweight.

The SP5 Series and MP5 function through the utilization of the symmetrical transmission
of energy. The equal and opposite reaction to the bullet traveling down the bore provides
more than enough energy to function the gun.

11
CYCLE OF OPERATION
The cycle of operation is a reoccurring sequence of mechanical events which takes place
in the operation of a self-loading firearm. The sequence for the SP5 Series pistols begins
with a loaded magazine inserted into the magazine well.

1. FEEDING Removing a round from the magazine.

As the bolt moves forward under the pressure of the expanding recoil spring, the feeding
pawl on the bolt head rides between the lips of the magazine stripping a round out of the
magazine and feeding it into the chamber.

2. CHAMBERING Placing the round in the chamber of the barrel and seating it fully.
The bolt pushes the round forward into the chamber until the mouth of the cartridge
comes to rest on the end of the chamber.

3. LOCKING - Closing and locking of the breech mechanism prior to firing.

The bolt, being pushed by the recoil spring, continues to apply pressure to the base of
the cartridge until the extractor cams out allowing the bolt to snap forward. The front of
the bolt head hits the back of the barrel and stops its forward movement. Once the bolt
head has stopped moving, the bolt carrier and locking piece continue forward for about
4mm until the locking piece forces the locking rollers out into the locking recesses of the
barrel extension.

4. FIRING - Ignition of the propellant powder.

The trigger is pulled and pushes up on the rear of the sear causing the front to move
down releasing the hammer. The hammer falls to the firing pin and overcomes the tension
of the firing pin spring driving the firing pin into the primer. The primer detonates,
igniting the propellant powder and firing has occurred. When the sear releases the
hammer the spring in the sear causes the sear to travel a predetermined motion. This
setting of the sear allows SEMI-AUTOMATIC fire and the sear is reset to catch the
hammer before the hammer hits the firing pin.

5. UNLOCKING Removal of any blocking mechanism from the breech so the breech
can open.
The resultant force of the cartridge firing creates an impact on the bolt head that sends
force through the rollers into the locking piece, knocking it to the rear. Once the locking
piece moves from between the rollers, the bolt is unlocked.

6. EXTRACTING removal of the fired cartridge case, or a round from the chamber.
As the bullet is leaving the cartridge case, expanding gases pressurize the inside of the
case and the flutes in the chamber. This prevents the case from sticking to the wall of the
chamber and residual gas pressure floats the case out of the chamber on this film of high
pressure gas.

7. EJECTING - Expulsion of the round or fired case from the gun.

The extractor holds the empty case to the face of the bolt head as it travels to the rear.
The carrier rides over the rear of the ejector and the front comes up through the face of
the bolt hitting the case as the bolt moves to the rear. The extractor creates a pivot and
the ejector provides thrust as the case is knocked out of the ejection port.

8. COCKING - Resetting of the trigger mechanism to enable subsequent shots to be

fired. NOTE: cocking is NOT complete at this time!
While the bolt moves to the rear the hammer is pushed back and the bolt rides over it.
When the bolt moves forward for the next cycle the hammer starts forward. The shooter
releases the trigger causing the sear to snap back into position and the firearm is ready
for the next shot.

12
SAFETY/SELECTOR LEVER FUNCTION

NOTE: The SP5 Series has ambidextrous selector/safety levers, that is safety levers
located on both sides of the lower receiver. Either lever can be manipulated and
moves the lever on the other side. Unlike some firearms, the selector/safety levers
can be placed on the “SAFE” position even if the firearm is not cocked.

“SAFE POSITION” – Place the selector lever with the point facing towards the closed
white box containing a bullet symbol with an “X” over it (downward, Fig. 6).

“FIRE POSITION” – Place the selector lever with the point towards the closed red box
containing a red bullet symbol in it (upward, Fig. 7).

 SECTION 5 SIGHTS, AIMING, AND SIGHT ADJUSTMENT

SIGHTS
The SP5 Series is equipped with the same sighting system installed on the HK MP5K and
the SP89 — a protected front sight blade (Fig. 9) and an adjustable rear drum (Fig. 8)
with various width notches for precise shooting and rapid target acquisition.

Fig. 8 – Rear Sight Fig. 9 – Front Sight

NOTE: HK SP5 Series pistols are test fired for accuracy by ensuring the point of
aim equals point of impact at 25 meters (27.3 yards). Individual results concerning
accuracy and/or shot placement are affected by such factors as stance, grip,
engagement range, and ammunition. Use of different types of ammunition can change
the elevation and windage of the position of point of impact. The sights can be
adjusted to correct changed position of point of impact.

AIMING
The correct sight alignment and “sight picture” is depicted in Fig. 10 below. Common
sight alignment errors are shown in Fig. 11.

Fig. 10 – Correct sight alignment

14
 Fig. 11 – Common sight alignment errors

SIGHT ADJUSTMENT
Sight adjustment for the SP5 Series is made on the rear sight drum. The rear sight can be
adjusted for precise shooting or for rapid target acquisition. Movement of the sight will
be in the same direction the shooter wants the impact of the round to move. If the hit
is to the right of the intended target, then the sight and the impact must be moved left.
For precise shooting, adjust the rear sight to a narrow notch (Fig. 12). For rapid target
acquisition, adjust the rear sight to a wide notch (Fig. 13).

Fig. 12 – Narrow sight notch Fig. 13 – Wide sight notch

Use an HK sight adjustment tool ( Fig. 14, HK part # 3000009) to adjust the rear sight.
The sight adjustment tool includes two components, a Phillips screwdriver and an
elevation adjustment module (stored in the handle of the screwdriver).

Fig. 14 – HK sight adjustment tool

15
 Fig. 15 – Insert elevation tool Fig. 16 – Adjust rear sight
module into rear sight

Elevation Adjustment – Point of Impact TOO HIGH

1. Insert the elevation tool module into rear sight while inserting the wedges of the tool
into the slots of the rear sight (Fig. 15).

2. Insert the Phillips-head screwdriver into the elevation adjustment tool module A , press
downwards and hold it (Fig. 16).

3. Turn rear sight drum counter-clockwise B (Fig. 16). Turning by one click changes the
point of impact by approximately 1.375 cm (0.55 inches) at 25 meters (27.34 yards or
82 feet) range.

4. After correction withdraw the Phillips-head screwdriver and remove elevation tool
module. The catch bolts will then re-engage in the slots. After performing the elevation
adjustment set the desired sight notch again.

Elevation Adjustment – Point of Impact TOO LOW

1. Insert the elevation adjustment module tool into rear sight while inserting the wedges
of the tool into the slots of the rear sight (Fig. 15).

2. Insert the Phillips-head screwdriver into the elevation adjustment tool module A, press
downwards and hold it (Fig. 16).

3. Turn rear sight drum B clockwise (Fig. 16). Turning by one click changes the point of
impact by approximately 7 cm (2.76 inches) at 25 meters (27.34 yards or 82 feet) range.

4. After correction withdraw the Phillips-head screwdriver and remove elevation tool
module. The catch bolts will then re-engage in the slots. After performing the elevation
adjustment set the desired sight notch again.

16
 Fig. 17 – Lossen screw Fig. 18 – Turn windage
Adjustment screw

Windage Adjustment – Point of Impact TOO FAR RIGHT

1. Loosen screw by turning counter-clockwise with Phillips-head screwdriver (Fig. 17).

2. Turn windage adjustment screw clockwise (Fig. 18).

3. Tighten screw by turning clockwise with Phillips-head screwdriver.

Windage Adjustment – Point of Impact TOO FAR LEFT

1. Loosen screw by turning counter-clockwise with Phillips-head screwdriver (Fig. 17).

2. Turn windage adjustment screw counter-clockwise (Fig. 18).

3. Tighten screw by turning clockwise with screwdriver.

Any corrections which may be required when sighting-in the SP5 Series should be
performed by adjusting the rear sight for elevation or windage. The pistols are designed
to be sighted in at a range of 25 meters. REMEMBER THIS HELPFUL FORMULA: LL=C
(Lower or Left = Clockwise rotation)

17
 SECTION 6 AMMUNITION

WARNING! HK specifically disclaims any re­spon­si­bil­i­ties for any damage or injury

that should occur because of, or as a result of, the use of faulty, remanufactured, or
reloaded (hand load­ed) ammunition, or of cartridges oth­er than those for which the
pistol was orig­i­nal­ly cham­bered for.

HK SP5 Series pistols are designed to fire quality, factory-loaded am­mu­ni­tion, load­ed to
NATO or SAAMI (Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers’ Institute) spec­i­fi­ca­tions
for use spe­cif­i­cal­ly in handguns.

The following guidelines should be considered when se­lect­ing the cor­rect am­mu­ni­tion for
your pis­tol:

1. Be sure the am­mu­ni­tion you have chosen is com­pat­i­ble with your pistol-proper caliber,
cartridge, bul­let weight, etc.
2. Prior to loading the mag­a­zine and cham­ber, carefully in­spect all car­tridg­es for the
following ab­nor­mal­i­ties:
• Cracked, split, dirty or cor­rod­ed cases
• Improperly seat­ed pro­jec­tiles and/or primers
• Damaged pro­jec­tiles.
3. Do not attempt to fire a cartridge in which the pro­jec­tile has been forced back into the
case. Upon firing, this con­di­tion may result in increased chamber pres­sure above safe
lim­its.
4. DO NOT USE:
• Reloads or remanufactured ammunition.
• Aluminium or steel cased ammunition.
• Non-jacketed or exposed lead ammunition.
• Corrosive ammunition (primer and/or propellant).
• For­eign and/or out­dat­ed mil­i­tary sur­plus
• Any ammunition that exceeds NATO or SAAMI (Sporting Arms and Ammunition
Manufacturers’ Institute) pressure limits.
• Corroded ammunition.
• Dented Cartridges.
• Cartridges with loose bullets.
• Cartridges exposed to extreme heat above 135°F (57°C) until they have cooled.
• Use only authorized ammunition that is manufactured to NATO and SAAMI specs.
• Ammunition that is wet or dirty.
• Ammunition ex­posed to oil, grease, wa­ter or direct sun­light. If possible, re­move
contaminants be­fore use and cool down am­mu­ni­tion ex­posed to di­rect sun­light or
heat. (Ex­po­sure to sourc­es of heat could raise the cham­ber pres­sure of the car­tridge
above safe limits.)

WARNING! HK firearms are designed to function with quality, manufactured brass-

cased ammunition. Use of steel or aluminum-cased cartridges is not recommended
and could adversely affect safe and reliable functioning. Use of cast-lead bullets is
also not recommended.

NOTE: HK handguns are safe for use with new, high-quality U.S. factory ammunition
manufactured to SAAMI specifications. For further information go to www.saami.org
or contact the manufacture of your ammunition directly.

 SECTION 7 INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Know how to clear an SP5 Series pistol before attempting to operate.

CLEARING PROCEDURE
1. Point the muzzle of the pistol in a safe direction and place the safety lever in the
safe position. Ensure the muzzle of the firearm is pointed in a safe direction and that the
operator’s fingers are off the trigger and outside the trigger guard. Place the safety lever
in the SAFE position (white cartridges symbol with white “X” through it). Safety lever is
located on both sides of the receiver.

2. Remove the magazine. Depress the magazine release button on the right side of the
receiver (Fig. 21 A ) or paddle on the SP5. Remove the magazine from the magazine well
(Fig. 21 B ).

3. Open and lock the bolt to the rear. Grasping the charging handle on the left side
of the receiver (located adjacent of the front sight) and move the bolt to the rear while
keeping the muzzle pointed in a safe direction (Fig. 22). Place the charging handle in the
upward, locking recess notch (Fig. 21 A and B ). The bolt should be locked in the rear
position. Watch for a cartridge or empty case to be ejected out through the ejection port.

4. Inspect the chamber. Inspect the chamber for the presence of a cartridge or empty
case by (Fig. 22):
1. Visually inspecting the chamber through the open ejection port.
2. Physically inserting a finger through the magazine well and sweeping the chamber

FILLING AND EMPTYING THE MAGAZINE

NOTE: Do not attempt to load more than the prescribed number of cartridges into
the magazine. Do not alter the shape of the magazine housing, fol­low­er or spring.
To do so may cause stoppages or the mag­a­zine may not seat properly in the pistol.

Filling the Magazine

Fig. 25 – Loading the magazine Fig. 26 – Unloading the magazine

1. Hold the magazine in the non-firing hand with the back side of the mag­a­zine resting
against the palm .
2. Using the firing hand, hold a car­tridge between the index finger and thumb with the
projectile facing the palm.
3. Press the rim of the cartridge down against the forward edge of the mag­a­zine follower
or on the top car­tridge al­ready in the magazine (Fig. 25 A ).
4. Slide the cartridge back into the mag­a­zine under the feed lips (Fig. 25 B ).
5. Repeat steps 1-4 until the magazine is full. Do not overfill the magazine.

Emptying the Magazine

Exert pressure with a finger on the base of the cartridge (Fig. 26) and push each cartridge
forward out of the mag­a­zine until the magazine is empty.

LOADING
1. Lock charging handle rearward. Ensure the safety lever is in the “SAFE” position.
2. Pull charging handle all the way back and hold it (Fig. 27 A ).
3. Lock charging handle upwards in place into recess notch in receiver (Fig. 27 B ). The
bolt group is held in rear position.

20
 Fig. 27 – Lock charging handle

4. Insert magazine. When inserting the magazine into the SP5 Series pisols, the bolt
group should be locked in the rearward position.
5. Insert full magazine into the firearm until the magazine catch engages.

WARNING! Risk of injury or death from accidental discharge of SP5 Series! A

loaded SP5 Series pistol is always a potential source of danger. Only load the
firearm immediately before firing and unload the firearm immediately after firing.

6. Pull the charging handle all the way back.

7. Let the charging handle snap forwards. The firearm now has a round in the chamber
and is set to “SAFE”. If the charging handle is locked back in the recess notch,
vigorously slap it downward with your non-firing hand. Do not “ride” the bolt forward.

WARNING! Dropping and/or jarring a loaded firearm may result in a discharge

of the firearm, even if the safety is in the “SAFE POSITION.” It is the operator’s
responsibility to always keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction, maintain control
of the firearm, and keep the firearm unloaded until it is ready to be discharged. An
uncontrolled discharge may cause property damage, personal injury and/or death.

FIRING
The HK SP5 Series is equipped with a bungee-type carrying sling (Fig 28 & 29). Using
the carrying sling for additional support while shooting provides the most stable firing
position and offers the prospect of the best possible hit results. When shooting, press the
firearm forward against the force of the carrying sling (Fig. 29). Using the carrying sling
also prevents the firearm from falling and striking the ground.

WARNING!
1. Be sure of your target and what’s behind it! A bullet from a pistol travels as far
as a mile. It can easily pen­e­trate wood or plasterboard walls or even a car door.
2. Be sure that your hands and all parts of your body are kept away from the muzzle
of your pis­tol at all times!
3. Always wear eye and ear protection when fir­ing the pistol.

 SECTION 11 SP5K ACCESSORIES

RAIL MOUNTED ACCESSORIES

HK SP5K pistols have a MIL-STD-1913 (Picatinny rail) scope mount rail installed on the top
of the receiver. This scope mount allows the operator to mount a wide variety of accessory
scopes, sights, and aiming devices to the handgun by means of the simple and proven
Picatinny interface system. (see Fig. 57).

Fig. 57 – Accessory sight module mounted on SP5K pistol

To avoid damage to the accessory and the SP5 Series pistol, carefully follow the
instructions of the manufacturer for installing, operating, and removing accessories from
the scope mount rail. Always ensure the pistol is “clear” and unloaded before installing or
removing accessories. If encountering difficultly, please contact HK Customer Service to
avoid damage to the pistol or the accessory.

Installation of some accessories can change the status of the SP5 Series pistol from civilian
handgun to a Short Barrelled Rifle (SBR) or Class III firearm requiring licensing from federal
and state authorities. Contact the relevant law enforcement agencies (including the U.S.
BATFE) before installing accessories like buttstocks and handguard with a vertical foregrip.
