I run trains! |
Didn't see this discussed anywhere yet, if so I apologize for the duplicate. Link
Following some of the links in the article appears to be a legitimate move by HK; which is disappointing to see. Success always occurs in private, and failure in full view. Complacency sucks… | ||

Israel is pretty self sufficient in their small arms production. And, from a business standpoint HK doesn't seem to be particularly well run. This just add to it. I don't see them being around too much longer. The entire German small arms industry doesn't seem to healthy at the moment. | |||

Hysterical. If you go to Africa you should know how to break down an AK, FAL, CETME, and a G3. HK will just ship to buyers elsewhere and elsewhere will ship where they want. I'm sure Israel is sweating this news.  I have the heart of a lion.......and a lifetime ban from the Toronto Zoo.- Unknown | |||

Yeah, sorry about that. The quoted piece was from the Guardian, as such there was opinion in there along with the factual stuff. Success always occurs in private, and failure in full view. Complacency sucks… | |||

I'd like to know how they arrived at that number. | |||

Hmmm, I have no problem with a company deciding who or who not to do business with. Their business, their decision, even if bad for business. Kinda like the baker and the gay cake. I’d be interested to hear someone who believes a baker, photographer, etc. should have the right to refuse service to a gay weddding explain why this is “wrong”. Just a reminder, I believe baker, etc. should be able to refuse such service, What part of "...Shall not be infringed" don't you understand???  | |||

Good point. "Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women. When it dies there, no constitution, no law, no court can save it....While it lies there, it needs no constitution, no law, no court to save it" - Judge Learned Hand, May 1944 | |||

Probably a WAG, ie, a wild arse guess. But what is more important, to present correct information, or to be politically correct? "Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women.

Why not really put your money where your mouth is? If you're not going to sell in "warzones," why sell to the military at all? They fight wars, ya know. And as far as "democracy standards," I hear America is filled with racist cops...Better not sell there, either. | |||

John Wick alone killed that many using a HK. It's true, I read that on the internet  The "Boz" | |||

The Ferengi Rules Of Acquisition: -Rule 34: War is good for business. -Rule 35: Peace is good for business. I've given up trying to make sense of HK's business model. Sadly, I am hopelessly addicted to their products. H&K-Guy | |||

Ouija board? 2 million people killed by guns since 1949? That is 3 years after WW2 ended. Elk There has never been an occasion where a people gave up their weapons in the interest of peace that didn't end in their massacre.

Who'd a thunk it? HK killed more than the '03 Springfield and the M1 Grand combined? From the figures I can find, the German Army and Waffen SS lost most of their men on the Eastern Front: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...ties_in_World_War_II . If they can just toss out figures and expect them to be accepted - I will use the same method.  . “Leave the Artillerymen alone, they are an obstinate lot. . .” – Napoleon Bonaparte http://poundsstudio.com/ | |||
