They deburr the receivers by hand.
Nice rifle, the RAL8000 looks sweet.
I agree the build quality is phenomenal. The fit and finish is on another level compared to the other high-end AR's out there. Truly makes you believe in the whole "no compromise" HK thing.

Is that for just the civvie version or does that include their contract 416s as well? I didn't know this, that's awesome.
Not sure if this is appropriate or not.*
Hands on experience of Marine Infantrymen who actually carried it overseas and in combat.
14minutes long. Some very interesting info.
The USMC M27 IAR first came on the scene in late 2010 when it was issued to five deploying units that would see if the new automatic rifle was to be as viable as claimed. This video will cover some of the issues with the weapon system and some of the debate surrounding it, getting into as much detail as possible on camera through the experiences of Marine Infantrymen who actually carried it overseas and in combat. Today the M27 has reached full issue within the Fleet Marine Force and Reserves, and might even be reaching a full force adoption if Marine Corps Systems Command can get the contracts and solicitations sorted.
*Admins - feel free to remove if you believe it doesn't add anything to the discussion at hand.

MR series and the HK41x are made on the same production line.

And there's no such thing as "HK416 profile" barrel. If a country place a large enough order, H&K will make the barrels in any profile the customer wants.
There's so much misinformation out there it's not even funny.

The "real McCoy" is exorbitantly priced($1000), try HKPARTS, I have the "crowfoot" version of the barrel wrench and may "clone" it if I can? I've used the Geissele reaction rod from Brownells and that's good to go.
Ya I’m waiting on pricing now, if it’s too ridiculous I’ll go with HK parts wrench. I’d prefer the real deal but will see what happens.
Get or borrow the Giessele rail wrench - Exact same dimension for the barrel nut wrench.
Guess what, Giessele made rails for HK416 to supply to the US spec ops, and then they started making rails for AR15 to the commercial market.
It really depends how the internal of the 416D lower looks like. I have not had the chance to see one closely but.......either it is a good investment or it is a major bust. I will just put money on MR223 lowers to be on the safe side.

Is the 416 e1 stock supposed to have a slight rattle on milspec buffer tubes? I put mine on a colt canada lower and not that I was expecting magpul ubr level lockup but it has more free play than I expected. I just want to verify this is not a defective item.
