Meh. Good rifle, but just another heavy, piston-driven, restricted AR....

You got to do a good review once you get it! How many extra mags did you get and what was the cost?

Years ago, I seen a very similar looking HK rifle do 1inch groups with hand-loads and it wasn't once in the bluemoon occurance. If the shooter did his part, they were all 1inch or less.

Cheers,

My unfired example also comes with 6 magazines. It will not stay unfired for long! I also have 7 x G36 mags for my G36K Hera conversion carbine, so adequate mags for plinking. Sorry but the price was confidential. Besides which, Wanstalls is trying to sell their minty example here so it wouldn't be appropriate to discuss prices in their business forum. Unfortunately, the going rate is what it is....

Germany has very strict export laws, so in a nut--shell? No, not for civilian sale. One would presumably have to look elsewhere and find a stash of semi-auto-only G36E rifles in a nation that will aĺlow them to be exported. The rifles could not be retrofitted from select-fire systems as that would make them prohibited 12(3) Converted Automatics. They would also have to be fitted with either factory G36E or MG36 barrels in order to have sufficient length for Non-Restricted status.

Good luck with all of that, which is why they are so few and far between, limited to the handful that entered the country many years ago. Hence the high collector value, based on rarity. Simple supply and demand...

This is why I sold my M10X, among other firearms to generate the necessary cash. Are they worth the asking price? Of course not! Unless you happen to be a Canadian collector and this happens to be your "unicorn" gun. Then maybe...

Ohhh... I get it... no, I was not asking how much did you pay for the rifle... I was curious how much were the extra magazines. Sorry for any confusion. But now you got me curious about the rifle price!!!! Hahhahahha. :evil:

Cheers,
 
The seller wanted $45 CAD apiece for his spare, proprietary G36 mags. That was a good price compared to $80 CAD apiece landed from HKParts.net plus importation and pinning fees from a 3rd Party Importer. I took all 5 extras that the seller had....

Man, I thought they are going to be in the 300-500range - holy cow was I off.
$45 is more then reasonable.

Cheers,

The only reason it isn't sold now is the Price Pimps only buy two at a time. :)

Here we go again with you and your "price pimp" name- calling BS, every time you can't personally afford something. �� Your shtick is tiresome. I'm not sure how you got off of my ignore list, but back on it you most certainly go.... There, much better!

Are these still available Brand New from Germany ? :)

Possibly, I know the way that a least some of these, not sure about all, got in to the country was through the film industry. I for example was asked if I wanted to purchase some semi auto G36 rifles. I asked "what the hell would I want with a semi auto in a world that wants everything full auto". The response was, "you can sell them tot he public, we have people chomping at the bit to buy them" I bowed out because there are end user certificates involved. I heard through the grape vine that Whoever participated in the import got black listed by HK and couldn't purchase any more of their product.

There is more than that in Canada.

Yes, far more than that. They periodically squeak into Canada via different channels. I’ve owned 4 myself and I know of many other owners. I’ve never paid anywhere near $12K for the ones I’ve owned. They have ranged from $5500 to $8500; I’ve owned a C, K (x2), and a P (it’s the same as the E). Values may have gone up.

Edit: I should add that I purchased all mine between 2007 and 2012.
