    Also read that HK Germany is way in debt bad, I always though they were the cats meow over there?

    No. Cash flow problems. You can only continue to ignore the enormous American market for so long before it starts to hurt you. You suck and we hate you is a strange way to do business. You can only sell so many guns to .govs all around the world.

    .hans just approved several large sales to the Arabs recently. However, despite this last minute approval (mit der letzten Eisenbach!) HundK has a big fat nut to pay off.

    Sell HundK, USA, open a plant in the USA and start cranking out licensed copies of HK91s, HK93s, HK41s, inter alia. They will never do it as they hate us. Money cannot buy the hate that they love so much.:D

    Sell HundK, USA, open a plant in the USA and start cranking out affordable licensed copies of HK91s, HK93s, HK41s, inter alia. They will never do it as they hate us. Money cannot buy the hate that they love so much.:D

    I wish they would sell the MP5 over here, that alone would help them and me. I am even alright with semi auto.

    That is what happens when the gun makers don't support the rights of the gun owners. Guns get banned and u have no one to sell to. Cant let the gov ban candy and get mad that your candy company has to go out of business. Maybe they should grow some balls and tell Europe the truth about guns and back pro gun candidates in there country.

    The "**** you civilian buyers, we only want to sell our turd guns to uncle sugar" business plan seems like a real winner.

    H&K might start to realise that they do not operate in a vacuum, and that ignoring the civilian market is probably unwise.

    How the **** are they ignoring the civilian market? That is not the case any more as is customer service. That is top notch and has been for years now!

    It is possible that I spoke out of turn concerning H&K, that being said the fact that their reputation towards civilian purchasers is still mocked and derided shows that they have a long way to go to fix their image.

    The problem is that people who either don't like them or have no interest in their products keep repeating what hasn't been true for many years.

    I feel the same way as sparkyfender, what am I missing? I own many H&K products, top notch manufacturing, some over 20 years and never failed me yet.
