The UMP .45 is used only by the Contingency Response Team as a powerful close quarters weapon. There are four settings for the selective fire toggle: Semi-Automatic, 2 round burst, Full Automatic, and Safe.

The UMP replaces the MP5 in the Great Lakes CRT's arsenal. The .45 caliber version was chosen over the 9mm because of the greater stopping power of the .45 ACP cartridge. Flash and sound suppressors are available for the weapon, and can be fitted when authorised and tactically necessary.
