    The HK G3 is the basis and origin story for the giant now known as Heckler and Koch. The G3 was the German military's service rifle for decades, and was replaced in the 1990's by the G36.

    The HK G3 slaps. One of the best looking rifles. With my PTR-91 GI model, I can hit targets out to 550 yards with irons without issue. I think that's due to it having awesome sights and a free float barrel. I wish the trigger were better, though.

    Seriously guys I've watched all these videos, great detail and information about the HK brand. Personally I feel like most people are put off about the price. As stated these guns aren't built for a quota they are build for the needs of law enforcement and military. The quality built into each firearm shows ever time you are behind the gun. So as an H&K fanatic, thank you guys!

    S Tier Quality in the production. History is a valuable tool in knowing what won the wars for men over time. The more our world remembers and shared this history, the less likely it is to repeat itself! But in the event we do have to go to battle, one of my go-to's would be the PTR91 PDW. It's an HK 308 pistol length clone. Close cousin to the G3 that you described since HK's are hard to get in the states!

    With much regret I bought 3 H&K91’s and 1 93 that I no longer own. However I did win an SP5 from Classic Firearms 2 years ago which rekindled the fire for the roller blowback system! Now I’m considering going to Gunbroker and purchasing a 91. I bought my 91’s in the 80’s for $695! That certainly won’t happen on Gunbroker….more like 5K!

I bought the A3 variant polymer furniture POF Made (butstock, foregrip and pistol grip) from Gun Broker and now it looks mean. Funny thing is, PTR bought the HK tooling from portugal, manufactured it in the USA, and i have POF Furniture on it which fits like a glove. Talk about Globalization 😂😂.

    H&K are an amazing company that have made some of the finest most elegant firearms ever made... I still think that the MP5 and UMP are among the top 3 Smgs and the MP7 is in the top 10... I think the G36 is in the top 3 of assault rifles and is 100 percent the sexiest ... and the USP series of handguns leas the way for weapon mounted lights and is a relevant combat handgun to today.. the P30 and HK45 are also top notch handguns...
    I will say im not the biggest fan of the G3 after I ready review it hard.. its too heavy, too unwieldy, no last round bolt hold, no bolt release, bolt is in an awkward position for shorter people especially and the rollers can bind up... ive im being honest the FAL is the clear best battle Rifle of the big 3 in the cold war era... but the G3 still must be respected as it lead to many other guns (most importantly the MP5 and HK53) and I will say if looks are the most important thing , it is the nicest looking rifle ever made up until its cousin HK53 and the Sig 550 series

      It’s an old grey room gun that can’t be replaced. Couldn’t shoot this one

    Nice German origin story. 1911Syn has gone from HK haters to full swing nutriders in less than a year!

      Oh I agree. I don’t hide from it. Sometimes you just evolve and decide to revisit things you once didn’t understand

      Hahahah it’s been like 2 years sir. Jake and I were talking about that. I’m happy I have changed and so has he. I’m happy I got to learn grow and evolve. Previous hate was uninformed and more centered towards the HK but riders. I didn’t know what the big deal was. Now that I do I am happily a nut rider. Thanks for watching us for so long and knowing that history of the channel. Appreciate your support man 👊🏼

    Good stuff (the whole series), but as a g3 fan I'm surprised you didn't have any good action shots of the gun this episode is about.

      We couldn’t. It was an antique grey room gun that can’t be replaced
