HK- Smart brand or Overpriced?
- Thread starter TacticalTaco
- Start date
The MP5, UMP, and PSG1 are the best weapons that hk makes.. I think. But those are all way out of my price range and the NFA ones even more so.
Most are unavailable due to 922r. Thats the only reason we dont have mp7's
I have a USP 9c with a stainless slide, a USP 9f and a P2sk 9mm. They have been bought over the years.
The HK' s have been nothing but reliable. But, so had my other handguns. SA/DA and I do like/prefer the paddle magazine release.
I prefer HK over Sig Sauer P226 and P229 any day of the week. I really do not like the P229.
I prefer HK over Glock. Except for the 4th Gen G19 with no backstrap.
The downside is that while I like HK, I don't see the extra cost above a Glock, Walther or XD. Or even the reliable Sig Pro.
For what they are,...polymer pistols....
HK's are over priced.

for $3k u better be absolutely sure ur happy
HK doesn't do anything for me I have to like the way the gun looks for some reason, and the price tag on them is high... If I'm going to spend the money get me a nice pretty 1911! Otherwise, glock, springfield, ruger, sig for me.
That video is not reflective of the gun but rather this gentleman's lack of pistol skills.
At 21 feet/7 yards that pistol will make one ragged hole with bulk pack 230 FMJ. At 40 yards that pistol should be keeping the shots under 6 inches off hand and if shooter rested (a range bag on a table) then under 3 inches but that's for a shooter with some level of skill. The Mark 23 from a machine rest will cut around a 1-2 inch hole and ammo quality plays a bit more of a role at 40 yards.
The amazing thing is it does it while maintaining a combat level of reliability. The issue as mentioned is it's a big dang hog of a pistol.

I will say again. I have HATED every HK product I ever made the mistake of buying or trading for. Never had a Sig I liked either so maybe it's just me.
I'll stick with my Glocks and 1911s thanks.
