I'm starting to shop for an MP5 but can't seem to figure out what a "Navy" trigger group is and whether or not it's desirable.I'm thinking it's got to do with the shot burst choices.

  I think what it means is its the standard group the navy uses, safe semi auto, where as HK has many different variations of safe semi bursts and autos. Some only go to burst some exclude burst and only do auto, some bursts are two shot, others three shot. I don't think the "Navy" group is any more or less desireable than any other. Just about everyone wishes they could have a full auto.

  The "Navy" is a grip frame design, not a trigger pack type, its a plastic grip frame with a smooth, straight grip as opposed to regular grip which has a slight thumb ledge on the left side and finger grooves in the front. It also has pictograms on the front of the housing as opposed to the typical S-E-F or 0-1-30 at the back of the housing. Lastly it has a ambidextrous selector, its entire design lends itself more to left hand shooters than the original design.
