What happened to the HK USC? 5 years ago they were sold new everywhere. Now, to find one even used is like trying to find a nun in a whorehouse. Did they stop making them, or are we just not allowed to import them anymore.

What did wolverine supplies say when you asked if they had them or how long it would take?
I placed my order with Wolverine back early in Febuary. I still don't have a new USC. I check back with them every month or so now and nothing Last time I was told maybe in September. I know its not their fault but come on 7 months now damn the HK distributor. I wonder why Wolverine doesn't order in 10 or so cause there definitely is demand for them.

HK does stuff in production runs. Essentially they go for 3-4 months making a few of one type of gun, then another couple months making a couple different ones...
In the USA, they bring about 1500 Mark23's in at a time (for perspective)
So the USC probably only gets made once a year or "cycle" (however long that is) and probably only a few go to Canada. Its not like they can just make 50 at a time, in order to be cost effective for them, they need to do hundreds at a time.
And demand for the US market as well as Canadian market is pretty low (comparatively) so they may not have enough interest to start up a run on them...
Especially now with the US market and the MR556, and the Euro & Canadian markets and the MR223, their production capabilities are probably pretty tied up right now...
Which sucks, since the USC is an awesome carbine. Im really glad I got mine
