I collect guns. I just wanted to show off a couple of HK's I have. I am no HK fanatic as I don't like their newer stuff especially USP pistols but I love P7's and their roller lock rifles and smg's. Click on the links below to see the pics.
This is a HK P7 PSP that has been refinished by with NP3 which is a finish that somehow combines nickel with teflon. It adheres much stronger than regular nickel so it will not chip like nickel. The teflon properties give it a natural lubricity which makes cleaning it MUCH easier and you can actually run most guns with no lube at all, but I still use some tetra gun grease just in case. I have a concealed carry license and this is my carry gun. It makes a better carry gun than a P7M8 because the M8's mag release is in a location that causes it to get pushed by alot of holsters releasing the mag while you are wearing it.
This one isn't technically an HK. Real HK rifles cost to damn much because of the 89 ban on the importation of assault rifles which has limited the supply to those imported before 89. I always wanted an HK91 but all the clones were crap until JLD enterprises released the PTR-91. They are HK91 clones w/ 2 differences. They have a heavy target barrel and a French Diopter sight instead of a standard HK rear sight. These are improvements if better accuracy is desired. They are more accurate than a true HK91 because of the heavy target barrel. They aren't as accurate as a PSG-1 or MSG-90 but those to because of the ban are WAY out of my price range. I added a factory HK claw mount with a Tapco stanag to weaver conversion rail, a Sightron SII 4-16X42mm scope (not the best but good enough for my purposes), a factory HK light steel bipod, a decent trigger job (factory HK91 triggers suck), I sold the POF wideforend and bought a factory HK one, about twenty 20rd mags, and a 5 rd mag. I want to add a MSG-90 buttstock but that would drop the number of US parts to low and would make it illegal (this deals with the same ban I referred to earlier). Top Notch Parts is supposed to have a US clone MSG-90 stock soon. I preordered one in January and they said they should ship in February but they still aren't done damnit!! I have close to $1700 in this rifle with all the stuff I added to it including the clone MSG-90 stock I already payed for. I just got done shooting 120rds of 1980's Argentina surplus 7.62 Nato ammunition and one box of Black Hills Match Grade .308. It's pretty damn accurate for a .308 battle rifle, but it is not a precision rifle by any means. I had a bolt action Remington 700PSS (police sniper special) that I sold to help pay for this. That thing was a precision rifle but it really wasn't my cup of tea and Match Grade Ammo is close to $20 for a box of 20rds which is to rich for my blood when surplus 7.62 is about $190 for 1000rds. I'm about to start Dental School so maybe after I'm done I'll get another tac driver but until then...
Oh yea please don't turn this into a political debate. I could care less if people don't like the fact that I own guns or carry them. I am proud of my toys and wanted to show them off. If it offends you click the back button on your browser :thumbs: .
