    HK 243 barrel length

    Do you guys intend to have these available with a non-restricted length barrel?
    If so will it be an HK barrel or after market?
    Will they need a new FRT from the RCMP or will they be considered close enough to the SL8 and G36 to run on their FRT?

    Thank you and as always, please get these in and take my money.

    atm just 1 length, 16"

    G36 barrels will fit, so that might be an option for you.

    Thanks man. Here in Canada we have a desire for barrels of at least 18.5". Shorter that that and we are restricted to shooting them only on a range. No camping, country plinking, or hunting with the short ones here. I use my SL8 for hunting but as I get older and my back gets older I begin thinking something lighter might be on the horizon (243). BTW like the updates you give on HKpro.

    I thought G36 barrel doesn't fit?

    Does North Sylva Co. even check their forum? I posted this a week ago and they haven't responded.

    As a distributor, they're not really in the same business of customer out-reach and public relations. They just get the guns!

    That being said: they do reply on occasion. The forum's here for a reason.

    Moe,

    To answer your questions.

    Yes, we intend to offer this rifle as a non restricted.

    It will be an H&K barrel.

    And yes, a new FRT number will be needed. You cannot tag a new model to an existing model. This will be the slow part. We have had items at the RCMP for 2 years now still waiting on an FRT#.

    I hope people have some patience on this one.


    Thanks,

    Jon
