anyone know where to pick up a hk416 in Canada? trying not to get gouged on price...
It is vapourware as the 416 is a full auto carbine, you will have more luck looking for a MR223 - $4000+

did you mean the MR556?
The HK416 is a full auto rifle, as stated above. However, that doesn't mean you can't have the upper.
The problem with the MR223's, is the interchangeability between other AR parts. Otherwise, i'd own one. Aside from that, they are in fact beautifully made rifles.
Personally i really don't want the interchangeability the point is mute to me for the reason being, that mixing a top tier rifle with a lesser brand is not doing anyone any justice. Why mix an older Ferrari with a new one. Unless you have a 416/417 upper then I can understand, it isn't really a big deal to me. Plus it was mostly because of German laws that it was made like that with pins being put back 6mm. But to have that option would have been nice for my MR223, I 'm on the fence right now about getting the MR308 or waiting for the US version(MR762).
Lets just scrap the entire firearms act, and all will be fine.![]()
We might be able to get some hk MR556 rifles the way things are going now. I am going to try to import one when they become available. I don't want a neutered HK MR223
i just got off the phone with an arms dealer out here in vancouver who will happily supply the mr556 or mr762... as much as i would love to own both i decided on the mr556 for $3800 and will have to wait to purchase the mr762.
thanks everyone here for the info, much appreciated
but here's a debate....would you purchase the mr556 or the mr762???
That's a pretty good price on mr556, if you don't mind, which dealer in vancouver? I'm in the area as well, sounds very tempting!
The MR223 upper/lower cannot be interchanged with standard AR15 upper and lower receivers due to the offset mounting pins.So sorry for being clueless. But what is the difference between mr556 and mr223. Why is mr223 neutered?
im sure the price can be extended to other buyers, but as he is a personal friend he is giving me the best price. ill ask to make sure first then send you a pm
