Have you owned an HK? Any of them?

It's not all hype, my VP9 is hands down the best full size stock 9mm service pistol I have ever shot. The only thing that comes close is the PPQ imo. Hell people still carry full size USP's as their ccw. Also having a very close friend who owns several (SL8, MR556, UMP, numerous MP5 variants, numerous pistols), all of which have been 100% and ooze quality compared to their copycats. I agree that they command a bit higher price than they should, but every one I have seen ran perfectly. Honestly their price point isn't that bad any more either with all the $2k custom Glocks and boutique AR crap on the market.

I've only handled a 416 but it seemed quality, I have ran a MR556 a few times and it has been reliable as well.
