I know HK has been making these again, anyone know when some SL8-4 and SL8-5 are incoming ?

Any vendors that can chime in as they are all sold out unfortunately.

Been trying to find a used SL8-4 to no luck .. cheers
 
I remember hearing last year that a new batch was coming in this winter. Not sure if that has since changed.

I wonder what they would retail for today? $3,000?

Hopefully a little less. HK USA announced this summer they were doing another run of them at $1700 USD MSRP ~2160Cad at current. So maybe after import and markup $2600ish ballpark.
 
After research the sl8-4 and 5 are and have always been in production. It's the US market sl8-6 that have US bolts and single stack mags that are being made again as they haven't had a US run since 2010
 
These were still available a few months ago at a few vendors. Price was around 1900 to 2200

They've been listed but they havent been actually in stock for the last few years. Ask Canada's HK importer they have unfilled standing orders.

This was posted a year ago.

A better question is, is HK going to manufacture and ship them? Ours have been back ordered for more than a year.

I remember checking with the distributor (don't quite recall - maybe North Sylva) and was told that they don't anticipate seeing any of these anytime soon (meaning 2021/2022). I was told that HK has focussed primarily on the military market and the civilian market lags behind.

My local gun shop, which used to carry them (and the price is still around $2000, though I think those were like 2020 and before prices), have told me if they get some in, it's only one or two at a time, with very little notice. Price be north of $3000 now once anything comes in. They did start receiving the SL8 mags, which was encouraging (I bought some even at the crazy price of $90 for a 5-round OEM, even though I don't have an SL8...yet). Some used SL8s I have seen on the EE last year for over $3500.

If there is indeed a more recent update and something is coming in, it would be delightful news.
 
Try reaching out to IRUNGUNS and see if they have, or will have, any in their US store they can import.
