SP5L is official

[AGG]

People will buy anything they “perceive” as the “newest trend”! They will buy it just because it says HK and they just have to have it.
On the other site, some are raving about it and singing the praises with claims of how happy they are that HK did something new.
Yeah...’God is great, beer is good, and people are crazy”!

Exactly--- just like the SP5K/SP5/SP5K-PDW--- sad state of affairs--- just acquire classics (HK91/HK93/HK94/SP89) for the funds that you would initially spend on the former.
Difference between HKPS and HKP (more knowledgeable and quality members v. mostly newbies).

Why? you will have to find a barrel later. Who on gods green earth wants a 9mm rifle? I do not get it

And it will most likely be a U.S.-made barrel (no barrels imported) --- kind of defeats the purpose of all-German.

I'm not sure how long HK can keep up this BS, how is this a sound business model ? I know its HK, but why? who is the buyer

As long as U.S. consumers keep buying--- while still being ignored about what they want--- then business as usual.

So...if you are going to have a full length barrel, why not move that site forward, extend the cocking tube and put a 93/33 hand guard on it? All that wasted real estate between the three lug and the triple tree. ??????

Like an AK or a Valmet M71/M78--- HK will never do this.

They should take the FN route and and let us have MG4’s and MG5’s. Now THAT I would get excited about.

I think i’ll pass on this one and stick to my SP5 and PDW. Would rather see a 93 tbh.

I will stay with the classics.

Agreed--- like the FN M249S--- but that would be giving the people what they want.

I second this one! That would create fist fights at gun stores & bidding wars on GunBroker the likes no one has ever seen!

They’re here! 3 up on Gunpoker.

2 auctions & 1 Sell your firstborn and Buy It Now

If a shipment arrived (which it apparently did), these sellers don’t all strike me as larger stocking dealers.

These ppl listed it showing an installed A2 stock. I'm sure they 922r'd it ...... idiots.

I messaged the seller asking if they installed the requisite number of US manufactured parts before installing the A2 stock. I signed it THE BATFe

Where is the date code?

DE?

Where is the date code?

Interesting; seems HK may have dumped Date Codes and CIP markings altogether... Wonder if this will be the 'standard' on all their guns from this date forward.

DE?

Deutschland (Germany).

CIP/N stamped on the left receiver, below the caliber marking--- have to have that.
Maybe the Romanians are not aware of date codes.
