Newest is HK416A8
im diggin that watch garand! what brand is that? and is that your go to when you're out in the field?
Where can I buy a peq-15? I looked everywhere I can't find any for sale.
just one of the greatest guns in the market right now and beats the "ak alpha" series for sure simply by quality standard that is not easy to beat

That's the best version of the HK416 origin story I've heard

Dropping a fresh sermon like dropping a fat deuce… feel so good.
I am watching this in church, my preacher is watching too.

I was, dare I state, pleasantly surprised by the price for the MR-556 A5. It's sitting around $3K. I remember when the original was first introduced here in the U.S. it was something like $5K. I'm guessing the originals were imported so that, at least partially, explains that price.
The price for guns produced in Germany is that high, because of the high income of employees and the high tax rates over here. Same goes for our cars and literally everything produced in Germany. And ofc you pay the label "Made in Germany". 🫡
Wait until you learn about inflation… it might blow your mind
That was one of the coolest intros I have seen. I loved the full auto slow-mo and then the switch to real-time. Well done Garand Thumb!

Hey Matt, just a tip on your ballistics gel, you can "resurface" the block by putting it in some water for a little while and letting its congeal again.
Anyways, great content and I love the channel. Keep up the great work.
I wonder when H&K will complete the development of their HK433 so it'll become generally available. It would be very interesting to see how they combined the G36 and HK416 platforms. I know Sweden and Finland is looking to either buy or license the HK433 and modify for nordic conditions (like Sweden did with the licenced FN FNC which is the current service rifle which will be replaced). They're also looking at the FN SCAR, HK416 and HK417.
Never lol
@@ArchangelsSword It's already available in 5 different versions.
@@scyphe That doesn’t mean the US civilian market will ever see it. We still don’t have a MP7, and the G36 we get is neutered and has to be converted to be anything like a real G36.

HK416 A5 Is One Of My Favourite Rifle Gun Model
I got a birthday gift from my estranged father! Thanks Garand Daddy!
Interesting that the A5 looks to have less recoil than prior generations.
Adjustable blocks can do that
@@arcblooper2699 yes yes they sure do.
Absolutely true
@@GarandThumb just curious can you mount a 416a5 upper on a standard m4/ar15 lower without any problems?
@Joshua Bressel ok thank you for the info, the only reason I was asking is that i seem to recall one of the Daniel Defense uppers only work on proprietary lowers . I was wondering if it was the same thing with the 416A5. Thanks again.
i love the sound of this weapon !!
It's nice to see that except for the fun switch and the adjustable gas block all those upgrades are already present on my MR223A3 (which has been available here in Germany for years, got mine back in 2018). I'm also considering swapping out the gas block with the adjustable one, but so far I haven't found any conclusive info on whether it would fit with the MR223's barrel profile. I tried an aftermarket adjustable gas block (from Waffen Burk) a while ago and hated it. The adjustments weren't positive and with the handguard installed you never knew which setting you were on (it was a 5 position one) or whether you were even centered on a position or just between two.

Almost didn’t recognize that was an HK416 right there. It’s got the 416 barrel but the upper receiver on that 416 looks drastically different from the original.
I'm in love with this rifle
I bought a Ruger SR 556 in 2014 with three position gas (piston) setting including a fourth position to turn gas off for closed bolt (super quiet suppressed) firing. Thick, heavy, cold hammer forged barrel that hits sub MOA. JP captured buffer spring and Timney are the only two modifications I've made. Great Rifle! But there's still the 416 bug I'd love to scratch before I leave. Great videos Mr. Thumb
Those HK guys just don't miss. They know how to make damn good looking rifles.
Germans rarely miss on guns and cars
Ummm the XM8 was a thing...
@That Fat Guy From GTA SA they still made it. Also the famous quote about it was they wanted it to look more "starship troopers", there was no specifics, just generalities about it's looks.
@That Fat Guy From GTA SA Are you this smooth brained that I have to recap everything for you so you can follow what just happened here?
1) OP said HK doesn't miss and they know how to make damn good looking rilfes.
2) my response was the XM8 exists. Insinuating the XM8 is not "damn good looking"
3) you insert yourself with "they were SPECIFICALLY told to make it look that way."
4) I tell you no, in fact, there was no specifics just a general overview of what they were looking for.
5) your response is so
@That Fat Guy From GTA SA no one told them to make it look like a fish with its swoopy carry handle and big ass fore end. HK contracted with some designers from the German car industry and that's why the gun looks the way it does, seriously watch Forgotten Weapons for fucks sake. Finally, yes the XM8 is a counter to OP's post about good looking rifles because he mentioned that they also didn't miss.
my grandfather loved your channel before he passed away. when you break it down, hed be like....alright now pay attention. a legend is about to speak. lol

"Despite them being thick as hell, they do everything they want you too" 🤣💀☠️👻 I know I'm not the only one that caught that
You said the old ones just had one setting on the gas block. I had the 1st gen HK416 in the army and that one had a switch on the gas block to select suppressed / un-suppressed. After many of them had problems they got upgraded to not have the gas block adjuster anymore and it worked flawlessly suppressed and unsuppressed.
Did you never deploy like garand soy boy
"Make it not tame". Vocabular selection is awe inspiring. LOL
I had that switch on my Hk416 when in the army in 2010. Never used ut though since we didn't have suppressors. It was positioned another place though.
GARAND daddy has blessed us on the lords day. May he be praised!
On the OTB features - there is also a nub on the inside of the locking lugs of the barrel extension, to prevent the extractor from blowing out.
It is simple to remove or swap out the handguard, but it is in my opinion a poorly designed solution. The reason for this is that you will experience zero shift on equipment when remounting the handguard, unless you tighten down the screw with the same torque every time. I was in one of the units first issued HK416N's back in 2008, and we discovered this, which led to a change in how equipment was mounted to the gun.
The music was masterful!
I’ve been waiting for an MR556 review for a long time definitely looking forward to it
I feel like HK just makes guns for themselves and any government entity at this point 😂😭😭😂
I mean they're a firearms manufacturer for arms contracts and governments, so yeah 😂
Just imagine:
Some conference room, everyone in suit&ties, you know.. the people who decide things. The people with the big money.
The representative of HK pushes a button, a huge flatscreen slowly lowering into view while the blinds are automaticly closing...

HK416 is an amazing rifle, I served in the Selous Scouts during the Rhodesian Bush War and the rifle saved my life, it never jammed and I never needed to clean it.

@@kylereilly6825 yeah I love it. To be it’s better than the Radian button style
Isn't ADM's ambi system just a prettied up version of the PDQ ambi system you can buy and add to any lower, with alittle dremel work? And they also come on aero percisions ambi lowers? ....if I am mistaken please correct me honest question. I personally prefer LWRC ambi lowers, and POF-USA gen 4 ambi lowers(but I get some people dont like the bolt hold open being in the trigger guard on the POF, but that's gonna leave them out of buying alot of modern guns, more and more are going to bolt hold open and release in trigger guards).....I have never been a huge fan of HK, I think they are overrated, and I think the company Executives, are pro civilian gun control and that is the reason why countries like Canada can get g36 rifles, but we get sl8 rifles, Canada has stricter gun control. So HK feels safe to sell the good shit there.
There's only 1 HK 556n I've ever drooled over . That's the HK 433 . I think they are awesome and modern design
HK 416 variants looks so lightweight
