HK greatly expanding their US market

Just came across this: HK is trying to grow their US market by any means necessary because the statism and bureaucracy of Germany are choking them. Maybe we'll see some cool new toys from HK in the next few years!

"I am a conservative. Quite possibly I am on the losing side; often I think so. Yet, out of a curious perversity I had rather lose with Socrates, let us say, than win with Lenin."

Well, I don't have to worry about spending my money with HK, regardless of how much they expand their market.

Don't wanna get shot by the police?
"Stop Resisting Arrest!"
Exactly
If they could get their prices down to what their stuff is actually worth that would be a great start. I'd jump at a P2000 if it was priced like a Glock.
If they really wanted to impress me they could reintroduce the P7 (and make enough of them that the price comes in a hair under a grand).
They're going to have to do a lot to get over their whole "HK; because you suck and we hate you" image.
Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".

-Penn Jillette
A World Without Guns <- Great Read!
They don't really believe citizens should own guns.until that changes greatly no money from me, no matter the price or product. They're elitist of the highest order.
I'm sure they'll have a market share- but I don't see it expanding much, they can't maintain their elitist attitude if average Joe can afford their wares. Maybe they could spin off a new brand, but I don't see them dragging the HK name down with silly things like affordable prices.
ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ, we are the III%, CIP2, and some other catchphrase meant to aggravate progreSSives who are hell bent on taking rights away...
They have been trying to get shooters to sponsor. Most of the folks I know have turned them down, but if you are aggressive with social media and shoot USPSA/IDPA or 3Gun, it might be relatively easy to pick up a sponsorship.
HKs Motto to us peons -I won't be buying an HK anytime soon.You suck and we HATE you.
