Jeff, is that a SP89 there? Cause I'm thinking a paddle mag release is a must with this setup. The brass 'kisses' must be brutal on the gun though. Very cool setup.
I happened to see a couple of these in actual use at Frankfurt Intl on a connecting flight to Dubai. Two Polizei were escorting someone important and the security detail with the dignitary (all dressed in Arab garb) had these briefcases in their possession. Kind of an odd sight as I quickly keyed in on the black briefcases with the goofy thick non-hinged handles as they passed in front of me. I think one of the guys knew that I knew what they were carrying as he kept an eye on me, as I kept eyeing up their briefcases. The Polizei were right outside the gate waiting area too, sporting MP5s strapped to their chest. Don't know who this VIP was these guys were escorting, but it shows that if you have the $$$, you too can fly upstairs in first class, sipping champagne, and have loaded MP5Ks there just in case the in-flight service sucks...
