Heckler & Koch MK23 : ウィキペディア英語版 | Heckler & Koch Mark 23
The Heckler & Koch MK 23, MK 23 MOD 0, Mark 23, or MARK 23, is a weapon system consisting of a match grade semi-automatic pistol, a laser aiming module (LAM), and suppressor. It was adopted by the United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) for special operations units in the 1990s as an offensive handgun. Production began in 1991, and it was the basis for the HK USP, which began production in 1993. While the MK 23 MOD 0 designation usually applies to the complete system, it is also commonly used in reference to the pistol component alone. The pistol itself, chambered for the .45 ACP cartridge, was developed by Heckler & Koch, and was selected over the Colt OHWS through USSOCOM's Offensive Handgun Weapon System (OHWS) program. The LAM and suppressor were developed by Insight Technology and Knight's Armament Company (KAC), respectively. ==Overview== The MK 23 is considered a match grade pistol, and is capable of making a group at .〔http://www.hk-usa.com/civilian_products/mark23_general.asp〕 The MK 23 is designed for exceptional durability in harsh environments, being waterproof and corrosion-resistant.〔 It uses a polygonal barrel design, which is reported to improve accuracy and durability.〔 It also features an ambidextrous safety and magazine release on both sides of the frame. The magazine release is at the rear edge of the trigger guard, which is wide enough to allow the use of gloves. A decocking lever is on the left side, which will silently lower the cocked hammer. The MK 23 is part of a larger weapon system that includes an attachable Laser Aiming Module (LAM), a suppressor, and some other features such as a special high-pressure match cartridge (.45 +P ammunition).〔 The firearm was tested and found to be capable of firing tens of thousands of rounds without a barrel change. It remains reliable in harsh conditions, making it suitable for use by special forces. The .45 ACP round has considerable stopping power and yet is subsonic, making it suitable for use with a suppressor.
