Germans certainly know how to produce quality weapons.
I am now the proud "owner" of what many believe to be the worlds best assault rifle.

Pictures of the new rifle!
The top picture is reminiscent of the Sulaco.
It's lovely to see H&K's art
That is SWEET lookin for sure!!!
Damn..... I'm so jealous!!
Why "owner"?
Is it some sort of replica?
Very nice anyway.
This is my signature. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
Oh so sweet... I have to get back in uniform....
To bad that that enviromental ammo is not so friendly with the lungs of the one pulling the trigger
It means that it technically belongs to the norwegian military, but I get to bring it home with me.
Ah yes the norwegian government trying to be politically correct on everything they do. Not only does the environmental ammo frack your lungs up on the indoor ranges, it also has less accuracy than normal 5.56 ammo-.-
Okay Valroe, I get the point
I will STOP catching your fisk in Norway 8O 8O 8O
Made in Germany !
H&K rules
mind if i have a go at firing at objects with that Beast of a Rifle you got their Valroe
[SAS]_Vet_Ade Veteran (Vet) 22nd Elite Virtual Regiment.
If it interests you Valroe, I might have a little project you and your new rifle could help with, hehe. I'll send an e-mail later.
Sounds interesting
If you pay your toll by making me a good danish style fish dinner, Ill let you fish as much as you want noer
it looks like a m4.. but i guess this weapon is more reliable. german quality work
HK 416 N and a Aimpoint M4, very good choice Valroe
Try to get the 3XMAG so you are well fitted for longer range targets and the
CEU for high risk CQB areas
It's hard that i only can buy that weapon as a semiautomatic here
(formerly known as SAS_LCpl_Hunter)
A friend of mine, who is Kersantti (Sergeant), specialized in urban combat, said that semi automatic weapons are more dangerous than fully automatic, because they're easier to control. And since the US have a standard rifle that is limited to single and burst fire, it can't be much of a loss, can it?
This is my signature. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
This is a very hard sentence for me to understand.
.
He probably meant that Semi-Auto shooting usually is more effective than full-auto shooting.
Basically if I just manipulated the trigger mechanism in my HK416 I could have it fire 7 round bursts for that matter. It`s just that civilians in most countries are not allowed to own weapons able to fire full auto, in case they go crazy and start killing people at the local shopping mall..
Of course semi-automaitc is more effectiv and easier to control in the hand of an experienced shooter.
In germany a fullauto weapon is usually not allowed for civilians.
Valroe be carefull on modifying the trigger control. It destroys your warranty and can cause malfunction
(formerly known as SAS_LCpl_Hunter)
Haha to 7 round bursts? That would be insane lol
U.S. law is similar, civilianised versions of military weapons are usually modified to make them semi-automatic and ditch certain features for legal issues. Really, I doubt it's practical to own anything more fun then a bolt action rifle these days in America.
And any weapon should be effectively lethal in the hands of a good soldier :-P.
You understood perfectly, even if I seem a little disorganized in writing comments here.
This is my signature. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
Well color me extremely jealous. We in the US are awaiting the release of the HK MR556 and the MR762, their US civvy and semi-auto versions of the 416 and 417.
The M16/M4 is a hell of a weapons platform, mainly because of all of the aftermarket optics options out there for them. I just don't like the non-gas piston variants of them. Too hard to clean!
Valroe,
it is better to replace the standard Aimpoint mount with this one:
http://stores.homestead.com/Laruetactical/Detail.bok?no=160
higher reliability
I prefer this config:
http://stores.homestead.com/Laruetactical/Detail.bok?no=226
with the support of this two parts:

(formerly known as SAS_LCpl_Hunter)
The mount we currently use is combat proven.
Marksmen also carry a version of the Aimpoint 3x scope.
If you can avoid Larue Tactical, I'd do it. The owner is an asshat. Good product, yes, but a childish owner.
If you can find an alternative from B&T or GG&G or ARMS, do it.
Just my opinion. And not saying you need to switch.
MaverickH1,
B&T i can support, it is real good stuff. ARMS nice but not the same quality and GG&G i dont know.
Did you have a link for me for GG&G ?
(formerly known as SAS_LCpl_Hunter)
Valoe, it was just a suggestion not more
I'll buy a M4s next spring
(formerly known as SAS_LCpl_Hunter)
Next SAS-meeting could be in spring...

"What's the plan?
Track'em, find'em, kill'em!"

GG&G is accepted as upper tier in the HK world. For a little while I had one of their adapters for the USP rail and it was very solid, it held zero for a laser that was removed and replaced for as long as I owned it.
I don't even know if they make mounts for the specific application, but I would exhaust all options before giving Larue a dime.
Again, just my opinion.
Why not 416? Because it is more expensive?
