Does HK make the most overpriced guns in history?

Shape is all fucked up(it should be almost flat) and there's an arc crater.

>>31542894
Those welds look great desu. Lets see how your welds look for comparison.
>>
Welding is like cumming - it doesn't matter what it looks like as long as it gets the job done.
>>
It's not HK's fault their fanbase is so obnoxious about meaningless quality standards

Who needs heat treatment am I right?

I would love the new HK416A5 furniture for the US market.
>>
>>31543003
if you call jevnaker agentur you can prbably get the newer versions of the gun.
but an 11 inch barrel you'll never get here in norway.

the limit is >40cm
>>
>>31542894

HK makes military firearms. That's acceptable for mil inspection. Trust me if you made guns with ultra hard German space magik steel, then you'd leave some toolmarks behind too.
>>
>>31543212
Yeah, that's what I thought, kinda tempted to get a 14", or just get a 16" from 2alfa.
>>
>>31543326
14 inches is 38cm. flash hiders also does not count

36 i mean. 16 inches is the shortest you can get them.

Personally i really want the 13 inch 417

Oh well, guess 16" it is.

The problem is that you're making the mistake of thinking it's a 2200 Euro gun rather than realizing it's a 300 Euro gun SELLING for 2200 Euros. HK makes money hand over fist because retards will buy their cheap weapons at exorbitant rates.

I have a recommendation for just the kind of craftsmanship you are looking for. Then again you probably couldn't afford it.

What a horrible weld.
All welds need to at least look like this.

A fish eye, yes, would not pass qc for pipe. Mig should never even get close to a firearm just tig.

I bought the HK416 .22LR Walther/Umarex replica.

How much of a faggot am I?
>>
>>31543189
That's stainless steel, and that color is indicative of PROPER heating.
>>
>>31544447
Annoys me that a hack job, meaning they used adjustable wrenches for something like that. Yet the welds are good. This is the equivalent of a of taking a high resolution picture of a really ugly girl.

You're a double extra superfaggot.

>>31545179
I have a feeling it's more of a demonstrator/demonstration of "this part literally doesn't matter" due to the mid-high-end crate motor and custom frame that isn't tubular. It's probably for a chop rod.

Those welds look pretty clean and typical of H&K stuff.
Obviously the shop boys are going to cry and post their daily ig uploads, but otherwise fine.

If you want to see some ugly roller lock welds, look at some of the POF, Atlantic, and U.S. garage builds. Some of the PTR welds were ugly boogers too, not sure if they've improved though, that was around when they first started and their barrels were garbage, not sure if that has changed either.

>implying you could weld any better
>>
>>31547611
Brits can't own guns, fuck off back to /v/.
>>
>>31542894

It's not a bad weld, just not a pretty one. It's not going to make any difference in how the weapon works. I agree that an HK should be immaculate for the price, but this is literally just an autism trigger.
>>
>>31544447
That's bullshit but i believe it.
>>
>>31544081
I can hear the the metal getting polished.
>>
>>31542983
Do you work at Century? How welds look tells you about how well they hold up.

I mean this is hardly the worst welds (and it's not like it's the trunnion or anything) but H&K comes with a high pricetag.

>>31545370
I thought carrier tilt wasn't a problem in the 416 and that it was seen more in horrible conversion kits?
>>
>>31542973
>it should be almost flat)
>implying that doesn't depend on the process and type of filler used
>>
>>31542894
They didn't used to be expensive. They were pretty damn affordable guns back in the day all things considered.
The premium charged for things today is entirely markup based on the cost of doing business between Germany and the US, and increasing margins to make up for lower sales volumes.

>>31543189
Its not titanium, its not a high stress bearing part either.
Thats fine.
>>
>>31545536
>Chinese
What?
>>
>>31542894
It doesnt look too terriblly convex. If anything, it's a bit undercut on the lower side. Not sure why they wouldnt just tig weld it.
>>
>>31543023
ITS SO BEAUTIFULLL..
>>
>>31543998
>HK makes money hand over fist because
Because that's how successful established manufacturing works after startup costs have been covered.

But hey, ignored all the red tape it takes to get them out of Germany and into other countries so you can continue to pretend the G series are just a bunch of sten kits
>>
>>31542894
I can't afford it so i'll just talk shit about this until people think i am cool.
>>
>>31545370
Are you high?

Carrier tilt isn't a problem in it, dunno how, some sort of kraut space magic

"Lets see you do better" piss off you don't need to do something good to notice it being done bad

You are a faggot.
>>
>>31552267
Except Germany doesn't go through any red tape to export G3s because they sold the blueprints to PTR and Zenith and now THEY make them in the US/import them from other countries. There's a reason why a PTR is just as good as an HK and is a shitload cheaper; on top of that they're still overpriced.
>>
>>31545178
This. The blue (the darker blue) color is actually the proper heat treat color for steel.

It used to be how medieval armor smiths the world over knew their steel was heated to the right temperature before thermometers were invented.
