I paid $2000 with A2 stock, and boght A3 stock soon after.
I also have plastic FBI F/S ambi trigger assembly on the way.
I only had a chance to shoot it at an indoor range, and managed to produce single jagged holes at 25 yards, usually around 1/2" to 1/3"
Recoil was mild, and the rifle was 100% reliable through 280rds of 55gr Winchester value pak 223.
Yeah, I found usual complaints against this rifle to be true.
-You need a CHEWBAKA hand to operate the controls.
-There is no last round hold device, and you get a surprise hammer drop on an empty chamer.
-It's heavy, especially toward front.
-You need two hands to remove the magazine.
But, compared to post ban bush AR15 I had, I found HK93 to be superior in regard to:
-More reliable mechanism and magazine.
-I liked HK sights better than AR sights.
-The preban flash suppressor is an welcomed feature, compared to post ban barrel or a blinding/deafening muzzle brakes.
-Far more rugged than AR. Though blocky, the bolt looks virtually indestructable.
-It sounds solid, where as AR gives that annoying springy sound in the stock.
Frankly I do not trust AR15 in the reliability department. Though HK93 is heavier, and less ergonomic, I think it is far more worry free than AR.
I think it's a keeper!
