Well, I looked around and tried to find the search function for this forum but to no avail. SO! I'm trying to dig up some user experience for the H&K .308 semi-auto rifle. If anybody here has experience with this item please jump in and post your 2cents worth as to why I should or should not get one.

there are only a few HK 7.62 x 51 rifles that you will be able to get here in Kommiefornia one is the HK911 (variant of HK91), Hk41 and I can't remember the others. All of them are over 3k! They're all tough as nails and accurate. Very heavy and all resemble the HK91 which is a listed Assault Weapon here, expect lots of looks and questions. One of the reasons I sold mine. Just my 2 cents worth."Americans used to roar like lions for liberty;now we bleat like sheep for security."

Check out the PTR-91. I think that may be what you're looking for.Comment

For the price you are going to pay(3k-5K), I would go with a LMT, LaRue or LWRC reaper..."Americans used to roar like lions for liberty;now we bleat like sheep for security."

PTR91s do not have chrome-lined barrels.
HK91s and similar variants (prob not the PTR91, dunno) have fluted chambering to aid in extraction.
This generally ruins brass and makes it very very difficult to reload (esp in sizing the brass).
Kid, I'd look at an AR10 variant. Runs great, top-notch accuracy even with base model.

Springfield SAR8 with a stamped receiver is a direct copy of the HK 91 using HK tooling. Only the stamped receiver, not the cast AL one.

If you don't mind wood and ten rounds, these are excellent.Comment

At the expense of getting roundly thumped,
the H&K G3 (91 semi) is considered by the German Army to be a throw away rifle. After the expected barrel life of 9,000 to 11,000 rounds they were destroyed and a new rifle issued. If you have one long enough and have fired it often enough you'll find it begins to loosen and rattle. Cheap in Europe, they were expensive here.

Jeez, for a rifle that is originally intended to be throw-away, it sure costs a bundle especially one that is made with a stamped receiver.At the expense of getting roundly thumped, the H&K G3 (91 semi) is considered by the German Army to be a throw away rifle. After the expected barrel life of 9,000 to 11,000 rounds they were destroyed and a new rifle issued.

For $3K+, I guess I can get a LMT MWS (or any top quality .308 AR) and get much better accuracy.They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

I don't have experience with the original H&K, but my PTRs have been flawless so far.
