Heckler and Koch is bringing back the SL8 rifle

[eagleclaw]

H&K is bringing back their SL8 rifle; AKA politically correct semi only version of the G36 carbine. It's going to have all the politically correct features including the thumbhole stock and ten round magazines. It's on their website;

What’s the price point though. I’d consider one if I could get it to the g36 without sending it to tommy tactical or whatever

I'm gonna take a guess at the price:

$6999.

I have my harbor freight plastic welder at the ready to convert one.

Shyda's had one of these newly made rifles a week or two ago. Not sure if it's still there. I think they were in the neighborhood of $1699

The damn thing felt musket-long compared to pretty much every other 5.56 chambered rifle on the planet. Despite that, it was still intriguing.

Well I have to say I was quite surprised at the pricing.

I was excited when I learned of the Tommy rifles but they are far too costly for clones.
