New German Army rifle: The HK HK416 A8

[Barn Owl Lover]

Finally we have a winner in the German Army rifle debacle. The HK416 A8 is now officially the winner of the trial after the last appeals court threw out Haenel/Caracal's complaint against the German Army and sided with HK on the patent dispute. Google Translate is your friend:

HK416 A8: Bundeswehr darf Beschaffung eines neuen Sturmgewehrs von Heckler & Koch fortführen

Das Oberlandesgericht Düsseldorf hat die Klage von C.G. Haenel zurückgewiesen und damit bestätigt, dass die schlussendliche Auswahlentscheidung der Bundeswehr zugunsten des HK416 A8 von Heckler & Koch rechtmäßig war.

From a shooter's perspective......that just looks painful.
"Personally" I've got MR556 and 416......and had to change out the rails
to RAHG's.......they're just more conducive.

Cheers and thanks for the info!!!!!!!!!

I wouldn't mind getting my hands on a Haenel just to "check it out" however I'm glad they ended up with the "real McCoy" , Cheers
