Nice weapon!
His shooting style is very different, unless I saw that all wrong. Looks like a left handed shooter shooting with his right hand?

Me and you both.

You two would probably just Finger F-it and put it back in the safe

I would hug it, and pet it, and squeeze it.

I found this photo at HK Haus. They also have a little gallery of Gen 1-4 versions of the 433 and of a G28 build.

I asked and I received. Previous pic, now in HQ and you can compare and contrast new features on the newer 433 series, including the two new lowers:

That grip angle... YUCK.

 

[Barn Owl Lover]

The 433's (bottom) or 437's (top)? I actually rather like the 416-type grips on the 433. Strangely, at least a batch of 416 A7s had the narrow, angled back grip, but now seem to have standardized on the next gen modular (P30 influenced) grip. Also oddly, the 416 A8 (German Army tender rifle) has the narrow grip, though I suspect that may change before adoption.

Besides (though only of interest if the 433 or newer 416s have a commercial variant), the grips, like on the FN SCAR, interface with basically any AR-15 or AR-10 grip.

I'm wondering if these patent images might shed some light on some of the design details of the 433 series. Namely the bulges in the upper and other details.

I just found this online on a Romanian HK Facebook group. Real or fake, and if real, where's more photos?

 

[AGG]

Cool picture.

Also from an admin at said group, the 433 should be publicly launched for sale to armed forces/LE sometime this summer.
