>Finally get a HK brand semi auto MP5K for sale in the USA
>It costs $2699
>2699 FUCKING DOLLARS
>Mags are $80 a piece
Why does HK hate the American market?
>>30113636
Because they are still mad we beat them in WW2. Only explanation.
Otherwise why would they'd rather choose to go completely bankrupt and constantly make overpriced neutered versions of their guns then just work with American distributors and the progun movement to sell their products en mass.
>>30113636
because exportation laws from germany and importation laws in the US make it difficult to sell firearms that aren't produced here
>I will never be able to own one of my dream guns for a semi reasonable price
It's not even a proper mp5 clone. The Turks have one that's closer to the real deal. HK is so dumb lol.

>>30113636
> what is brand positioning
>surprised H&K anything is expensive.
>>30113714
> $1899
Hell, that's still better than what HK is offering.
Because export laws from Germany are Draconian
Because import laws into the USA are Draconian
Because HK knows people will pay more money for the same product simply because they have their name stamped on it
>2699 dollars for a neutered MP5
It's like spending 500,000 dollars on a Lamborghini that only goes 60 MPH

You can buy an mp5 from pof or zenit for $1500. I forgot which one it is or it may be both but one of them is literally an mp5 with the markings but no HK etched on it and you're funding easily the two most repulsive countries.

I had high hopes for the SP5. It almost looked like someone at HK finally woke the fuck up.
Then they announced that not only there will never be a fullsize version, but that they'll go and neuter the gun beyond recognition (no lever mag release, among other things, and if you ever tried to use the button release you know how dumb that is).
All that with a MSRP of $2700, for a stamped steel gun that is still in production right now.
tl;dr: Bought a POF for $1450 and a SEF lower for $50, HK can go suck a fat one.

tbqh, the original sp89 did not have a paddle or even a tri lug adapter.
If you want a legit mp5, fork over the money to the roachies

>>30114038
why did i watch this now
i spit out my food
jesus christ, is this a troll or something?
>t. german
>>30114223
Yeah, how could we forget the German occupation of Washington DC and the surrender of American forces?
>B-but the Americans only helped during the year that was more bloody and decisive than any year prior! They only helped when Germany was 30 miles from Paris and German officers thought victory would come any day!
>>30114247
>tbqh, the original sp89 did not have a paddle
I don't live in the US. And that's not really an excuse, really, the paddle release is by far more practical.
>If you want a legit mp5, fork over the money to the roachies
I gave it to Paki shits, which is arguably even worse.
>>30114281
not a troll, they were serial about it
>>30114002
the actual fuck.
so without any regards to law or public safety they wish to bury the factory?
lol bring HK to daddy, daddy will keep you safe.
