1980s era HK ad.
All in all, it isn't HK's best design but it isn't one of the worst guns out in the world either. There are others that gladly take that title. The VP70Z and its machine pistol brother though didn't sell well. Military and Police across the globe purchased the MP5K instead. It...

Such a rough way to live. Variety is the spice of life. I enjoy the fruits that this world has to offer. It's like dating before marrying. My wife is the best like my EDC is the best. But I sure had fun trying out all the different makes and models before I settled one which would be my daily...
I happen to be a big fan of the .40 S&W. Though I've actually let some of them go in the past (sold my CZ-75B, S&W 4006TSW, and CZ P-07 Duty). I have a gaggle of .40 S&W chambered guns in HK, S&W, Beretta, Browning, Kel-Tec, and GLOCK.
Arcadia Machine & Tool, a company made famous by the hit 1980s sci-fi action/horror film, Terminator made a number of guns other than the seven inch all stainless Hardballer 1911.
AMT was founded in 1977 in Irwindale, California and made their claim to fame with developing a number of guns...
