Not compatible with Pmag, sorry.
Ridiculously good rifles for ridiculously high prices. Wish I could afford them.
I was thinking the exact same thing.....5 Grand is a lot of cash .
Why is it six different colours?
Totally valid question. People sh!t on NEA for having a faded grey that they call black and not matching other blacks, but they cost 20% of what this rifle costs.
If Daniel Defense can make a perfectly marching tan/brown cerakote rifle for $2000, why can't H&K do it for $5000?

why are all the great guns restricted
I've had the 16" for almost a year now, and I am hard-pressed to say anything bad about it. The break-point on the trigger creeps a bit, and it is very heavy. Those are the only drawbacks in my mind. But... balance that against... it shoots almost as well as a bolt-gun; it shoots 147-155gr. as well as it shoots 168-175gr... it is easily the cleanest firing gas piston system I have ever used (and I have a few)... and it is absolutely rock-solid in every way. Built to a reliability and durability standard that far exceeds anything a restricted firearm (or any firearm) in Canada will ever remotely face... by a long shot. Great rifles.
On the colour thing... I think that is just flash photography accentuating slight differences in colour on slightly different surfaces... I don't see that in the natural light with mine. These things, particularly in the green/brown RAL8000, are some one of the nicest looking ARs around. Huge head-turning at the range (which I don't care about... but). I was not expecting a whole lot from this rifle on accuracy, as .308 AR's did not exactly have a sterling reputation for accuracy, but these things are amazing.

Is the 20" restricted? It shouldn't be based strictly on the barrel length. Is there some other reason?

AR variant makes it restricted.

Attempting to use common sense and/or logic to understand gun laws almost always never work.
The MR308A3-28 (semi-auto, civilian version of the G28 DMR) does not come with 13" barrel option.
There's no plan to bring the MR308A3 in 13" barrel at this time.
You do have to consider this is closest thing to a real G28, add to the fact that the American equivalent MR762 is not made in Germany and this rifle does cost way more in Europe. This is not a bad deal at all.
