I was going to ask, as a non-HK nut swinger, what makes this gun worth $10k? Is there something that makes it easier to go full-auto or something of that nature, or are they banking solely on the limited importation of a semi-auto rifle that is no different than any other semi-auto AR, other than the pretty little letters on the side?

Agreed. I guess I really don't get it, what makes HK so awesome?

DOHCTR: Feel free to educate me as I'm sure you're the resident defacto HK-Guru. I'd even be willing to go shoot some with you so as to convince me that they are superior to anything else that makes a cartridge go bang in a barrel and still ends up on target.

Which reminds me... let's do another effing get together at a range and shoot some shit.

Absolutely nothing other than "collectibility".

It's a HK416 upper, with a full auto HK bolt. You can't get 416 uppers in the states, sought after mostly by people with M16's. Just pin them on and you have a full auto HK 416. Pretty much all 416 uppers are illegal, so you can't get them, driving the prices really high. So basically - extremely reliable proprietary piston driven upper for an M16. Arguably the highest quality upper money can buy, and everyone wants it.

Yeesh, $10K is just what I about paid for my Travel Trailer. I choose camping!

This.

There are a few people up North going to the big house for a very long time due to a scam involving the illegal sale of HK416 uppers and parts.
