HK what the fuck are you doing where a little bit of plastic costs more than a magazine

I am inexplicably extremely attracted to that woman
Also, yeah welcome to the BMW of firearms
Every part and fix is gonna be 500% more expensive for no good reason

Mercedes is a better analogy than BMW.

I drive a 300zx and the VG30DETT is the most needlessly cramped and complex motor I've encountered (3 Idle Air controllers for example)
Still cheap and stands up to a lot of abuse.
German cars are needless expensive AND complex

I would be worried if you weren't
But I'm mostly confused as to why the backstraps are so goddamn expensive compared to the mags. I had to buy a set of Glock backstraps once and the whole thing was around $20. $35/each for little bits of plastic is nonsensical.
The P2000 is only $600 new. Is HK trying to tell me that the backstraps make up 1/4 of that?

Because someone who is buying HK isn't worried about paying extra for what they want, they cater to a higher end client that they feel based on market research that they can charge a buyer (there isn't a good reason)

What is this supposed to mean?

Have you ever thought about jerking off into a cute girl's chocolate milk? I figure if there's enough chocolate they might not immediately realize what they've just swallowed.

P2000 magazines are used in 4 different guns, the backstraps are unique to the P2000 frame.
you'll probably not need the other backstraps assuming he has the medium one (or you have huge hands).
I have small ass hands and even I'm using medium instead of small
