Did the people in charge at H&K hit their heads - they're HK, and they hate us Giving us cool new toys to lust over and possibly actually get - is being nice to us. What next - actual honest to god HK made semi auto rifles again? The return of the 91, 93, and 95? I think I just felt my loins stir and my wallet cry out "NO!"

That would make a neat-o SBR project. The pricing and ammo availability may be a potential issue. It looks like this was posted in 2014; I wonder what the current status is.

 

[mjbskwim]

Not sure the caliber does much for me. And I don't get the interest in these new behemoth handguns just cause they look like SBRs
For that matter I don't get the whole pay 200$ more for an SBR

"DING, DING, DING, DING" we have a winner. Please step forward to collect your prize.

If its anything like what I think it will be like it will be $3000 and do the same thing that the CZ does for $850.

"NO TURDS", you pay the tax for something soley based on concealability. A 10.25" barrel is no more leathal then a 16" barrel. Go figure.

Sorry that is simply not true. The caliber of a MP7 packs a lot more punch the a 9mm does. Can't argue physics.

 

[mjbskwim]

The ballistics ain't better than the 9mm. It's a little faster and flatter shooting,a little. But the energy ain't close ,the 9 beats it bad. As soon as I read it's below the 5.7 I knew it wasn't worth it at the price of a H&K

[Flopsweat]

At the cost of 3 or 4 AR pistols and no ballistic advantage, meh. It looks nice but not $1799.95 nice. The next time I spend that kind of money I'm bringing home a Tavor X95.

 

[EPS]

Looks cool and all but rather have a AR pistol or SBR THAT I ALL READY HAVE MAG'S FOR I DIDN'T SEE ANY THING ABOUT WHAT MAGS IT USES I DON'T NEED TO BE BUYING MORE MAG'S

 

[JRuby]

I am not a fan of these hyper velocity small caliber bullets. If they made one in a 9mm bullet I would be more interested
If they made on in 45acp I would have ordered one

Would not do much for me as is but that would make a WICKED fun SBR.

 

[HuckleberryFun]

Another caliber to keep track of? Ugh.

Interesting... let me enjoy my scorpion first, zeesh

OK, but to be fair, a lot of stuff from HK seems like an April Fools joke.

 

[clearconscience]

Would be a sweet SBR, but just like others how would you find those rounds!
I will never buy a gun I have to reload or pay a bum load of money for the ammo

*sigh* you know - when I saw this I uttered some extremely foul, foul words. It's almost as bad as getting a really hot girl to come home with you, and once the clothes come off you discover her ball park frank is bigger than yours

I wanna kick TFB editors in the taint now, for that one.

 

[Boboclown]

Despite them being one of the world's largest arm's manufacturers, they have always been easy for us to work with and get products from to review.

This gave it away. That, and the low MSRP.
