Just curious about the castle nut, why so big?
Meet the new Heckler & Koch G38 German rifle ...
- Thread starter elektrobug
- Start date
Nice looking rifle made by a company that knows how to do it, but.................
Isn't it just a piston-driven AR with a quad-rail and railed flattop?
As far as Keymod handguards go, unless and until the US military agrees to modify the STANAG, troops will be using railed handguards for a loooooooong time to come.

What's with all the keymod love? I can't stand them and they are not going on anymore of my rifles
skinny and light, I have one, love it
I don't get it. All I see is another AR-15. I take it this one is more shootier than your average AR-15?
Ohh yeah, I forgot. I heard somewhere that H&K has all thier weapons magically enchanted by a wizard, so that whoever wields one of their guns becomes a super tactical operator. It'll also increase the operators bullet resistance by +10 and will make enemies up to level 50 flee for 60 seconds.

Well If it works for you then great.
I really want more cost effective hk piston ar's available to us middle class folk
All of this need time, which the army doesn't like to give and the guys want to go play COD at home. And as a grunt we don't use spot and adjust fire much, as a section (8x c7 and 2x m203, 2x c9) you just wreck the enemy position. At 300-400m you use more the volume of fire than precision.
For the first question: Yes you can buy it, but take it off it you don't want get it stolen at the Coy maintenance day and you're not there to clean your own rifle. You'll get the usual joking from the guys like joe kit and stuff.
We do have Vector LRF, but mainly for Recce and sniper. It's pretty you'll see grunts with thoses.
Ah yes the HK 416 it's still the champion of Assault rifles over all.
A small arm rifle made for professional soldiers/warfighters.
For us we can get a 416 upper in 10.4 too 20 or get 14.5,16.5 from tactical imports which is basically the same thing. Price for the MR223 is not great but it's not HK,s fault.

Advertising and litigation are two things HK does better than building guns.
Not the case with the guys in the Kiowa Warriors. On a couple of occasions they fired their personal weapons and dropped grenades on suspected enemy positions to draw fire so they could put in a rocket run.
Really highlighted the difference in Canadian and American training in the use of helos in offensive Ops (ours would never do that).

The big deal is that this rifle will augment and maybe replace the G36. Theres a big scandal brewing over the G36 involving its performance and corruption of govt officials when they adopted the rifle. The German army has already canceled orders for future G36 rifles.
