H&K Closing?

[AggieDave 6]

Who has the scoop on this? Who has links to actual news about it, instead of hear say?

If it's true, it SUCKS!

It can't be, they make most of the really good stuff. Well, unless glock is buying them out. Glen

Special weapons is eating away at their market share and they are a U.S. based company . It seems like every time I place a order with H&K that they don't want the business any more . I have heard rumours of a sellout for the last year or so . The product is good but the people suck .

I have been stocking more and more special weapons products lately . The quality is just as good as H&K . I bought a new MP5 from special weapons and can't tell a differance between the two .

Who or what is special weapons? H&K is a german based company , No? So confusing. Glen

If I'm gonna buy an MP-5, you can bet it's gonna be an H&K and not a knockoff.

It's German based, but owned by British Aerospace, of all people, unless I'm gravely mistaken (Andy McNab says so, so it could be made up).

Hmmm...just got back from H&K demo day at the range. Sales rep there with their full line and introduced 3 new models being released next month.

I have put 30,000 rounds through my special weapons MP5 without a failure or jam . It has not been cleaned either . It is really dirty and still no problems . Another big plus is I don't have to wait for them to be imported either . I just buy them , start the transfer and by the time the paperwork is back (25-45 days) the guns are ready for pickup . And by the way , why waste 3-4k on a H&K that you are going to chop the barrel on when you can buy one for less than $1500 and it cames with the 8.9" barrel installed . These guns are JUST AS GOOD as the originals . I own both guns ther is no differance quality wise . Special weapons builds these guns on the same tooling as H&K .

Hey fast when you say you can buy an mp5 do you mean the sp89 version? or do you have the licence for the mps full rock~n~roll potential? Glen

I hold a class II license which means I can buy sell and build machine guns and silencers . I can ONLY sell new machine guns to law enforcement and other dealers with a letter of demonstration .
