Annnndddd.... the plot thickens. Apparently the front sight post and handguard interfere with the threaded barrel on the HK SP5K... who the hell is the genius that came up with that configuration?
Ok..... It looks like it's both threaded AND has the HK 3 lug. Where does it interfere?

Save a little while longer and buy a full auto Mac. Semi auto sub guns get boring quick.

I have 2, both SBRs and neither have been out of the safe in 2 years.

Oh yeah... by the way, that's bout $5K more than I sold my old house for... although I'm the bank, so I get to keep all the interest.
But you'd get the MP5, HK53, AND just think how epically amazing it would be to unleash hell at the range with that HK51! Mmmmm. That would be the highlight of my life I believe....

I've shot a few FA's before- and they are cool as hell, but I've also had a M9/11 and hated the stamped steel, welded frame. I realize the HK is also a stamped steel welded frame, but it's a German stamped steel welded frame.


I was seriously comparing the prices on the Omega vs. a FA Mac when all this started. I couldn't quite justify getting into the FA game from a cost standpoint (although I'm sure they're only going up in value).

Well, the Sig's gone, but I'm still not sold on which one to order.

Damn I'd order the HK in a heartbeat if it weren't for the threaded barrel problem... dammmmmmmit. Honestly, the HK is still probably what I'm buying. Then having the barrel work done. Needs more reading first.

Well, a few dollars more (about $400) rapidly ballooned after I learned that I'd need a barrel (cheap one at $170, expensive one at $400) plus a minimum gunsmith charge of $350 on top of that...
Don't forget to add the cost of the folding stock and SBR stamp! Thanks for reminding me why I don't have one. I was almost ready to buy one again..
