Folks,
Originally (months ago) I was in the market for a Beretta CX4 in 9mm. LGS could not get it (at the time) and I stopped asking again. Maybe I should.
Anyway, I shot an HK94 clone the other day at the rental range. Pretty good carbine. I didn't know too much about it, and Googled around, and learned a little bit of history. I also know that there are no more genuine imports of the HK94.
I don't think I will try to buy an authentic one, seeing that they are super expensive. But what would be your opinion on a HK94 clone, and from whom might I get a high quality one? I assume it is somewhat like the AK clones analogy.
And whether or not you reckon it's worth the extra hassle and dollars, to get an HK94 clone over the CX4 (assuming I can find a new 9mm CX4).
Other 9mm carbines are on the back of my mind (Hi Point, Kel Tec, etc.) but primarily I am considering either the CX4 or the HK94 as a primary long-arm using 9mm caliber.
(Already have 5.56 AR15, and .308 is a separate buying process that is currently ongoing, so this question is purely focused on these two 9mm carbines).
