H&K

[Cylinder Head]

I've never carried one personally, but talked to several guys overseas that carried them and absolutely hated it. They said they were difficult to shoot and inaccurate. I had my eye on a usp 45 until recently when I fired one and found the trigger press to be absolutely atrocious.

Needless to say, my affinity with HK has dropped quite a bit in the last few months.

I'm at Blucore all the time and would be happy to let you try my HK45. I'm sure the trigger pull on that would change your mind.

Elitists. Thirty years ago they thought they were Uber gods. I remember having to "steal" a catalogue at the big show in Vegas. HK Reps were assholes way back then and all they had out was VP70s and P7s for pistols. Founders were Nazis working for Mauser. They took everything the could from the Mauser factory and hit the road.

IMHO Fans of HK are in that stereotypical Men's club that worship: Porsche, BMW, Rolex, Green bottle beers, matching bicycle outfits (Boulder is full of these metro clones in uniform), Levinson audio equipment, Cohibas (expensive and Cuban so must be good), German football clubs, etc. Never met an HK fan that wasn't more concerned about the look and status of owning the HK over shooting the damn thing and hitting something with it. Hell, even today their "classic" squeeze cocking pistols go for $1000 -$2000 and for what? Good luck with those $300 mags that hold 13 rds of 9mm Nordic fury. Drop it on the ground and whoops- bye bye $. Guess you could say I'm not too keen on anything from that country of troublemakers. Starting 3 wars in less than 70 yrs and causing 50million plus deaths is not a record of fine people.

Ooooooooookay.

I've never been big on handguns, just not my thing. That being said I owned an HK USP for over 10 years and love it. I've never had any complaints when friends shoot it either.

10/10 this rant needs its own thread

They're alright but my Rugers go bang every time. As do my springfields, colts, rock river, Delton, stag, noveske, FN, etc etc etc. Just another gun company.

Wow! You mad, Bro? I guess you think that those who own an H&K don't pay their fair share either?

I just assumed he was hitting the sauce today and will wake up tomorrow wondering what he wrote.
