  • Man......once the P-MAG M3 comes out in Spring. You'll be able to have this gun utilize the potential of the MAGPUL P-MAG M3. It's pretty sweet.

  • HK416 is more better than M4!

  • Thumbs up if you are a Blackshot gamer

  • @40kchaoslord Maybe because America is in a huge debt right now and cant afford to replace all of their M4s but basically all SOCOM units are using the 416 now

  • @SonOfAWhisker No, they are not. The only unit that is confirmed as using it in large numbers is CAG. Maybe some are in ASWG, maybe some are in ISA maybe DEVGRU, who knows. Delta is the only one that is confirmed (as much as you can confirm anything with them) as using it. The Special Forces, SEALs, Rangers, ect are using the M4A1 SOPMOD Block II. This is not subject to change, the 416 doesn't really add much over the M4A1 unless you're shooting suppressed often or always.

  • @Nater245689 I heard DEVGRU at least is using using the 416 now, rumour has it the 416 was the gun used to kill Osama but that cant be confirmed, im not sure if the all of the SEALs have replaced the M4A1 with the 416, the Rangers are using the SCAR now and have replaced the M4A1

  • @SonOfAWhisker The Mk 16 (SCAR-L) has not replaced the M4A1 in the SEAL teams or the Ranger Regiment. In fact, USSOCOM has stopped buying the SCAR-L except to replace weapons that have been broken or damaged in the field. The M4A1 SOPMOD Block II is what the Special Forces, SEAL Teams, and the Ranger Regiment use. So many guns have been speculated to have killed bin Laden. It was probably either a 10" 416 or a Mk 18 CQBR.

  • @Nater245689 I agree with you on the guns that might have killed Osama, why did SOCOM cancel orders for the Mk 16?

  • @SonOfAWhisker It didn't add anything over the M4A1. At least not anything that would make it worth spending a lot of money acquiring them.  They're only buying the SCAR-H.

  • @Nater245689 Well it doesnt have as many stoppages as the M4A1 but i guess thats it really

  • @SonOfAWhisker Not really. They're both highly reliable. The only real advantage for the SCAR is shooting suppressed. You don't get nearly as much carbon buildup.

  • @Nater245689 I dont think you're giving the these new carbines enough credit haha ;) personally i think the 416 is a better choice over the M4A1 because it does much better in sandy or watery enviroments along with the SCAR they also don't require as much maintenance as the M4A1

  • @SonOfAWhisker I'd say the SCAR would be the one to get. The HK 416 is having some problems in Norwegian service, there SOF units chose to stick with the C8 (licensed-built M4A1). The only real issue with the SCAR is the stock, it tends to break. That's nothing that can't be easily rectified. About the only maintenance an M4 requires is oil. Unfortunately, the Marines and in particular the Army have this backassward idea that battle implements must be white glove clean.

  • @Nater245689 Norway made changes in the rifle that HK warned them about, but they did it anyway and started having the odd problem.

  • @Frankfritz The two position gas regulator is not, as far as I know, what is causing the piston the seize. The piston seizure problem would happen to a non-Norwegian spec 416. It also happens on just about any other gun, but it's a big problem on a 416 (or other gas piston AR) where you have to remove the handguard to break the piston loose. Any other gun, you'd simply rack the charging handle with authority (or slam it against a heavy object). That's why it's a serious problem.

  • @SonOfAWhisker Also, from a purely technical standpoint, the SCAR is a better design. Gas piston ARs can be very good weapons, I've shot both the HK MR556A1 and the LWRC M6A2. I definitely liked the LWRC better, weight was more in line with a DGI AR. Still, they definitely have more recoil than a DGI AR or a SCAR. Not to mention that the AR-16/18 operating system of the SCAR (somewhat modified) has decades of service in other weapons (G36 and AUG in particular).

  • Why is it everyone holds the mag instead of the fore grip these days.

  • The only problem with this rifle and with other piston-driven ARs is that they experience tilt and other problems with time. HK parts are also very expensive.

    I almost want to say that LWRC is probably a better option for cost reasons.

  • @lethalweapon129 HK and LWRC both have designed the op-rod strike face to offset any carrier tilt. Not that you likely know what that is. I saw a post of yours where you claim the AR isn't as accurate as the AK because of the DGI system. The DGI system is one of the reasons it's extremely accurate, it induces no harmonics into the barrel. Not to mention that an AR is generally about twice as accurate as an AK. A good AK shoots 3MOA, a good AR shoots 1.5 MOA or less.

  • cool

  • I don't care what anyone says this gun is the way that firearms should be moving.

    I mean seriously if them ilitary has a gun that could jam under weather conditions, and then they are presented with a weapon that has been proven in all weather conditions, why not just switch, it improves efficiency.

    and also can be very low cost, since it finctions off the M4/M16 platform, they can just buy the upper receivers of the 416

  • @40kchaoslord Some of our SF units are now just buying AKs because even the HK416s start to get screwy out in the sandbox. The AK just keeps going and going. Plus an AK on average costs about $200 to the military market where a rifle like this is well over $2,500 each.

  • @lethalweapon129 Wrong on so many levels. The only time you'll see an AK used is for plausible deniability. That's it. You might be able to get an AK for $200, but it will be a pile of shit. A good AK isn't really any cheaper than a good AR. But that doesn't matter, because no US or Western SOF unit regularly uses them. They use the M16 family.

  • i have this model in paintball gun, from the BT company they call it the tm-15 it fell really amazing and the feel with the hands, shoulder and arms position is really comfortable

  • I don't have any personal experience with this weapon, but I'm liking what I'm hearing about this weapon so far. Combining the functionality of the good old AR-15 design with advanced German engineering. Getting the best of both American and German designs. I love German guns and I love American guns, so this to me is practically perfect.

  • I've never shot a gun, but this gun is... Beautiful.

  • anyone knows where i can buy this gun?

  • M416 stand for the military designation.. Like mp5 is actually hk5 and m4 I belive is the AR15

  • If this is the HK416, then what is the M416?

  • @laughs2hard456 All different names for the same thing. HK416=M416=416. ;)

  • @TopHatRunner Thanks

  • @laughs2hard456 Same thing. The M416 is the name for the HK416 if it were adopted as a military weapon.

  • @Jarbizu800 Thanks

  • @Jarbizu800 Strange we still call it HK416 in The Norwegian Army then..

  • @Hell1fire1 I don't know. Maybe only the US does it, because they're 'Mericans and so they gotta put an M for 'Merica.

    I'm kidding, of course, but ya.

  • Don't say which gun is better until you actually shoot both and compare you COD Faggets

  • @SASLeader15

    *faggots*

  • @SASLeader15

    This gun isn't in CoD; it's in Battlefield 3. So if any gamers here are trolling you, chances are they're Battlefield fags and not CoD fags.

  • @SASLeader15 Says the "SASleader" from the United States...

  • @Nater245689 Psn name buddy I think SAS is cool because their the best special ops group in the world

  • @SASLeader15 lucky for you this gun isn't in cod (yet)

  • hopefully this system will be utilized in a variety of weapon systems, shame it took over 50 years for us americans to put our pride aside and think hey maybe there's a reason our guns keep malfunctioning, would love to put this in my shopping cart, possibly once I'm done with the colorado school of trades i could improve on this system in other ways, but avoiding a lawsuit will be the real challenge.

  • @Mr1shotdrop lol like the Springfield rifle.

  • @DXSXDXSXD well it is my top 5. But yes the AK is the best for pretty much everything but I like the M4 more.

  • HK416 İS Western world AK47

  • @schattenfaust

    Not even close, anyway the AK101 pisses all over this shit

  • Comment removed

  • I think if they have to replace the M4 (m4 is my fav gun) they should replace it with this.

  • The whole day today I thought of the people who died in 9\11 Today is 9\11\2011

  • My top assault rifles :

    1st M4A1 Carbine the best.

    2nd M16 (Any model)

    3rd FN Scar

    4th HK416

    5th AK-47

  • Fucking Germans! They perfected the M4/M16 platform. I just wish that the HK416s were at the same price range as any ordinary AR platform.

  • I just fired one of these in full-auto yesterday (with an EOTech) and I couldn't believe the accuracy! Get these to the Marines whenever it's affordable!

  • I'm debating becoming an NFA dealer just for this gun... i'd do just enough NFA transfers to pay for the fee of being an NFA dealer.

  • Thats Germany quality engineering. Reliable and tough. True there other AR weapons system but still can't beat the Germans HK. Some interested folks and I have filed a request to our shooting club to buy this rifle. Just pray we get it and field test it ourselves I know alot of us will have fun doing so.

  • what the fuck is wrong with our armed stupid bureaucracy soldiers are dying Get this to everyone

  • There's not a single gun that's COMPLETELY reliable . The military looks for the gun that is most reliable .

  • thumbs up if you hate people who play call of duty and think they know ever thing about guns

  • Sorry guys but I think Barret REC7 is better...

  • 23 people were with osama when the seals killed him with this gun

  • this is the weapon anders behring breivik used to kill 66 innocent kids at utøya :(

  • @ADiOGamingPs3 No, he used a ruger mini 14...

  • @johanmagnus i read his manifest, he wrote himself that he used a HK416

  • Can any body PLEASE tell me can you own one of these guns? I here so many different things that "you can get the upper receiver and connect to an AR" blah blah. Can you get the lower receiver? Can you obtain this gun (legally or illegally)? And i'm not talking about the civilian one. I am talking fully automatic Hk416.

  • @shogun996 If you can afford it and live in the right state yes

  • keep pressing 8

  • The M-16 is a whore.Had sex with the Ak-47 and reproduced this...

  • im not german but i have to say the germans make nice guns

  • cool weapon, looks cool and sounds cool

  • cool weapon, looks cool and sounds cool

  • @TheDeadlysin666 MAKE ONE THEN

  • @UknownSoldierS259 PLASTIC UGHHUH

  • THE HK416 was used by the SEALs that nutralized Osama bin Laden

  • @kingtaythe2 Osama bin Laden was ALLEGEDLY nutralized, If he even Existed. where's the Evidence? you guys shouldnt believe everything the Government tells you...Sheeple.

  • @JacquesGD You shouldn't negate everything the government tells you.

  • I want to buy one of these for 3-gun shoots. but i can only if there's a Semi-auto version. is there a Semi-auto version?

  • @JacquesGD They Are semi auto and automatic probably burst now.

  • @kingtaythe2 And now it's in Nathan Drake's hands shooting villainous Brits!

  • @kingtaythe2 "Dev-Gru"

  • @M1911DeViLDoG Yeah, but they may have changed their name after all the publicity they got; so it may not be SEAL TEAM 6 or DEV -GRU any more.

  • @kingtaythe2 Oh definitely, originally Seal Team 6 was originated to confuse people (there were only 2 SEAL Teams at the moment) but now there's 10, and Dev-gru got changed like a year ago, they wont release the new name.

  • The shamwow guy was right! "you know germans make good stuff" haha

  • Do we need the caps? We all like different guns for different reasons. Seriously, calm the fuck down. It's not like some shouting asshole on Youtube is going to change the mind of a military quartermaster.

  • @PvtMichealJCaboose GOTTA LOVE THE CAPS.

  • @Roxas2D KID YOU NEED TO READ THE POST MORE CLEARLY BEFORE YOU COMMENT. I TOO LIKE TO PLAY CALL OF DUTY, BUT YOU NEED TO REALIZE THAT, THATS FAKE, SURE IT TAKES SOME ASPECTS OF REALITY, BUT DONT THINK FOR A MOMENT THAT BECAUSE YOU PLAY IN THAT BATTLEFIELD DONT MAKE YOU BATTLEFIELD WORTHY. ITS A GAME AND THATS ALL. FOR PURLY ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES. BUT ONCE YOU CROSS THAT LINE AND CONFUSE IT WITH REALITY, THEN YOU'RE IN A WORLD OF HURT. AND CANADA HAS THE BEST TRAINED SOLDIERS, HANDS DOWN.

  • @HUEJOHNSON canada dous not have the best trained soldier lol but i respect you opinion.

  • @rimacho14 CANADA HAS THE BEST TRAINED SOLDIERS, CONSIDERING THE SIZE OF THE ARMY. THEY WERE THE FIRST TRAINED IN URBAN OPS BEFORE THE US ARMY WAS. THE CANADIAN ARMY IS EQUIVALENT OR BETTER THAN THE USMC. THEY ARE WAY BETTER TRAINED. OUR COMMANDO TEAMS ARE TIER 1, EQUIVALENT TO SAS, DELTA, AND SEAL TEAM 6. I REMEMBER BEING TOLD BY A FRIEND OF MINE THAT WAS IN THE ARMY AT THE TIME, WHENEVER THEY WOULD CROSS TRAIN WITH THE STATES, THEY WOULD BE KICKING THIER ASS, UNTIL US CALLED IN AIR SUPPORT

  • @HUEJOHNSON yo bro i just cant take you serious. i wasent talking about the united states being better and i will not but i hope you know that thier are like 10 outher countires that are better trained. by the way the british military has the best rained soldiers. dont agree idk because its a fact.

  • @rimacho14 THE BRITS GOT THE BEST TRAINED OFFICERS, THE CANDIANS GOT THE BEST TRAINED SOLDIERS, AND THE STATES GOTS THE BEST TOYS IN THEIR ARSENAL. OTHER THAN THAT NO ONE ELSE STANDS CLOSE.

  • @Roxas2D IM CANADIAN CANADIAN. AND IF CHINA WANTS BEEF, WE PROB BE THERE TO HELP YOU OUT.

  • @Roxas2D NO YOU DONT. WE THERE WITH YOU, SIDE BY SIDE, AND ALWAYS WILL BE. THE WORLD SEES US AS PEACEKEEPERS, IN ACTUALLITY, WE PEACE MAKERS, CAUSE WHEN SHIT HITS THE FAN, WE KICK ASS AND TAKE NAMES RIGHT BESIDE OUR US AND BRITISH COUNTERPARTS. HOOAH!!!

  • @Roxas2D FUNNY YOU SHOULD MENTION IT, OUR ARMY IS NOT ONLY EQUIVELENT TO THE MARINES, WE BETTER. BUT YOU GUYS GOT ALL THE BEST TOYS THOUGH. IM NOT A SOLDIER ARGUING OVER VIDEOS, IM A YOUTUBE VIEWER, WATCHIN VIDS, I ENJOY, AND POSTING COMMENTS WITH MY OPINION. LIKE I SAID, YOU WANTED TO ARGUE, SO WE ARGUED, NOW YOU'VE BEEN SET STRAIGHT AND CAN MOVE ON WITH YOUR LIFE. BELIEVE ME, THOSE DI'S ARE GONNA CHEW YOU UP AND SPIT YOU OUT, FROM A WET BEHIND THE BALLZ MAGGOT, TO A BAD ASSED LEATHER NECK.

  • @Roxas2D YOU DIDNT MAKE ME MAD, YOU JUST NEEDED TO BE STRAIGHTEND OUT. JUST BECAUSE I WAS IN THE MILITARY DONT MEAN I CANT COMMENT ON YOUTUBE, DUMBASS. SO A BUNCH OF COD JUNKIES MAKE COMMENTS ON THESE CLIPS SPOUTING OFF HOW THEY JUMPED OFF A 20 FOOT ROOF, DID A BACKFLIP, AND MANAGED TO QUICKSCOPE AN ENEMY IN THE EYE, YA THATS WHAT I WANT TO READ ABOUT, INTEAD OF PEEPS WHO KNOW WHAT THEY TALKIN BOUT FROM REAL WORLD EXPERIENCE. KID LIKE I SAID, GO DO YOUR BMT, THEN COME BACK AND TALK.

  • @Roxas2D WHATEVER YOU SAY DIPSHIT, GAVE MYSELF AWAY? HOW SO, BY BEING ABLE TO ADDRESS YOU STUPID COMMENT DIRECTED AT ME AND MAKE YOU FEEL LIKE A COMPLETE MORON. LOOK KID, IM NOT TRYIN TO START A FLAME WAR HERE WITH YOU. ALL IM SAYIN IS BEFORE YOU TRY ATTACKING SOMEONES POST, MAKE SURE YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR TALKIN BOUT, OTHERWISE, ASK A QUESTION AND TRY AND LEARN SOMETHING. GLAD YOU MAN'D UP AND ENLISTED. YOU WONT REGRET IT, UNLESS YOU GET WASHED OUT FOR BEING GAY OR ARE A FAILURE. GOOD LUCK.

  • @Roxas2D BASIC. AS FOR ARMY VS MARINES, MARINES ALL THE WAY. HELL I WANTED TO JOIN THE USMC, BUT COULDNT DUE TO THE FACT THAT I WASNT A US CITIZEN, FUCKIN SUCKS. SO LIKE I SAID KID DO YOU BMT, AND THEN COME BACK AND WE CAN DISCUSS THIS AS EQUALS.

  • @Roxas2D I WAS IN THE MILITARY AND LIKE YOU, I CAME HERE TO SEE THIS CLIP AND POST A COMMENT OF IT BASED ON MY EXPERIENCE. THATS WHERE THE SIMILARITIES END. YOU COME HERE AND POST A COMMENT ADDRESSING MINE, WITH NO REAL WORLD EXPERIENCE, OR ANYTHING CLOSE TO HANDLING OR FIRING A WEAPON, SAVE COD, AND COME OFF AS A COMPLETE JERKOFF. THATS Y DUMB LITTLE KIDS, SHOULDNT TRY TO HANG WITH THE BIG BOYS UNTIL THEIR BALLS HAVE DESCENDED FROM THEIR BODIES AND THEY HAVE ACTUALLY HAD THE EXPERIENCE OF

  • @Roxas2D YOU SURE ARE WASTING YOUR TIME KID. COME BACK AFTER YOU'VE DONE BASIC THEN WE CAN TALK ON EVEN TERMS. I JUST MENTIONED THE COLT PROJECT, THEY GONNA CREATE THE M4 ENHANCED CARBINE, WITH A PISTON SYSTEM, INSTEAD OF REPLACE THE WHOLE THING ALL TOGETHER. THE 416/REC7/SCAR-L/AND THE CANCELLED XM8 WERE THE WAY TO GO, BUT THATS NOT HOW THE ARMY BUROCROCY WORKS, THE COLT LOBBY MAINTAINS A STRANGLE HOLD ON THE US ARMY THUS PREVENTING OTHER WEAPON PROCURMENTS FOR THE GI.

  • @Roxas2D ITS CALLED CROSS TRAINING DIPSHIT. THE C7 IS A M16 DERIVATIVE BUILT TO HIGHER CANADIAN STANDARDS THAN THE M16 WAS. BASICALLY, ITS WHAT THE M16 SHOULD HAVE BEEN, BUT ISNT. WHY DO YOU THINK MOST EURO COUNTRIES USED IT INSTEAD OF THE M16. CANADA, NORWAY, DENMARK, BRITISH SAS, ICELAND, THE NEATHERLANDS, HELL, THEY EVEN ISSUE THESE WEAPONS TO THE NEW AFGHANI ARMY, WHY NO US M16? CAUSE THEY SHIT. READ THE REPORTS FROM THE FIELD, KNOW HOW THE RIFLE OPERATES AND YOU'LL KNOW WHY.

  • @Roxas2D WHEN I SAID WE, I MEANT AS IN EVERY COUNTRY CURRENTLY USING THE M16/M4, SHOULD CONVERT IT TO THE 416/417. DENMARK HAS, MOST SPEC OP UNITS HAVE, INCLUDING THE SAS, WHO FAVOURED THE C7, AS WELL AS DELTA FORCE WHO HELPED CREATE THIS RIFLE. HELL THIS IS THE GUN SEAL TEAM 6 USED TO KILL BIN LADEN. IF THAT DOESNT SPEAK VOLUMES I DONT KNOW WHAT DOES. U GOT YOUR INFO OFF A BLOG.......THATS LIKE GETTING YOUR INFO OFF OF YOUTUBE POSTS. TALK TO YOUR MILITARY FRIENDS THEY WILL TELL YOU.

  • @Roxas2D SO BEFORE YOU RUN YOUR MOUTH, READ WHAT IS BEING SAID AND ASSESS WHO THE PERSON IS BY THE WAY THEY SPEAK. I SPEAK FROM EXPERIENCE, WHERE DO YOU SPEAK FROM, I BET YOU AINT NOTHIN BUT AN ARMCHAIR WARRIOR, WHO'S AT LEVEL 10 PRESTIGE IN COD, (I NEVER PRESTIGE, PRESTIGE IS FOR FAGGOTS), AND THINKS YOU CAN TALK DOWN TO SOMEONE WHOS PUT MORE LEAD DOWN RANGE THEN YOU HAVE IN YOUR FICTIONAL WORLD. SO IF YOU WANT TO EXPERIENCE THE REAL DEAL, STOP BEING A PUSSY AND ENLIST, THEN YOU CAN SPEAK.

  • @Roxas2D CONVERSION KITS FOR ABOUT 500K M16/M4, IF THEY CANT FIND A REPLACEMENT. IDIOTS. THEY HAVE SO MANY OPTIONS, THEY HAD THE XM8, CANCELLED, THE SCAR-L, NOPE, HK 416, NOPE. THEY NEED A VAST IMPROVEMENT INORDER TO BE REPLACED. SO IN THE MEANTIME OUR BOYS OVERSEAS FIGHTING FOR THEIR LIVES HAVE A FAULTY WEAPON THAT NEEDS TO BE CLEANED CONSTANTLY AND IS PRONE TO HEAVY JAMMING. WHY NOT, BUY AN EXTREMELY RELIABLE SYSTEM, AND THEN WORRY ABOUT LASER RIFLES WHEN THEY ARE CREATED.

  • @Roxas2D I LOVE HOW SOME MORONS COME OUT OF THE WOOD WORK AND ACT LIKE THEY ARE THE KNOW ALL AND END ALL OF EVERYTHING. I WAS IN THE MILITARY, AND I QUALIFIED ON THE C7, WHICH IS THE CANADIAN VERSION OF THE M16 AND IS ALSO SUPERIOR TO IT.  I BET YOU GOT YOUR INFO OFF OF PLAYIN COD. GIVE ME A BREAK. THE REASON WHY IT JAMS IS DUE TO CARBON FOULING WHICH COMES FROM THE DI SYSTEM BLOWING GAS BACK INTO THE FIRING MECH. DUMBASS. INSTEAD OF REPLACING THE M16/M4, THE US ARMY IS GOIN TO BUY PISTON

  • Thankfully this has a chance of replacing the M16/M4.

  • NO MATTER HOW YOU LOOK AT IT MOST ENGAGEMENTS ARE IN SEMI AUTO, CQC, (AS IN ROOM CLEARING) IS IN FULL AUTO, FOR THE MOST PART. PUT IN 30 ROUND MAGS AS STANDARD AND ITS MONEY. SURE SLIGHT WEIGHT INCREASE BUT AS FOR FIREPOWER AND RANGE IN THAT SMALL, FAMILIAR PACKAGE NO FUCKIN PROBLEM. THEY JUST CREATED THE BEST GUN EVER MADE. IF IT WAS AMBIDEXTRUS, THEN FOR SURE, TOTAL ROUNDED WEAPON SYSTEM.

  • THE AR PLATFORM TO ME IS ONE OF THE BEST BALANCED PLARTFORMS EVER DESIGNED. STONER WAS A GENIOUS. UNFORTUNATELY ITS ONE FLAW WAS THE GAS SYSTEM. HK TOOK THE CANCELLED XM8, TOOK OUT THE VITAL COMPONENTS AND REPACKAGED IT AS THE HK 416. SO MUCH BETTER, FAMILIAR, AND EXTREMELY RELIABLE.  HONESTLY THE MILITARY SHOULD UPGRADE ALL WEAPONS TO 7.62X51, USING A 10IN 417. YOU GET SAME HANDLING CHARACTERISTICS OF THE AR PLATFORM WITH THE STOPPING POWER AND RANGE OF THE 7.62X51 IN A SHORTEND WEAPON.

  • WHY DOESNT THE MILITARY REALIZE THIS WEAPON IS FAR SUPERIOR IN EVERYWAY TO THE M16/M4. STUPID COLT LOBBY. THIS GUN IS THE GUN WE NEED, AND WANT. NORWAY REALIZED THIS AND THEY WERE USING CANADIAN BUILT C7(M16 DERIVATIVE). THEY MADE THIS GUN THEIR STANDARD INFINTRY WEAPON. THE US ARMY NEEDS TO WAKE UP, AND SO DOES MOST NATO COUNTRIES USING THE M16/M4. HK 416/417 ALL THE WAY.

  • @HUEJOHNSON

    Amen.

    I tried this weapon for the first time, last week. It was.... AMAZINGLY GOOD!

  • @HUEJOHNSON The C7 have never been a standard issue in the norwegian armed forces. They did however use some of them in a few spec ops divisions. 

  • @ArghBlahr U MAY BE RIGHT ABOUT THE NORWEGIANS, BUT HOLLAND AND DENMARK USE THE C7 AS STANDARD ISSUE. THE NORWEGIANS ARE THE ONLY COUNTRY SO FAR TO ADDOPT THE 416 AS STANDARD ISSUE. THEY SMARTEND UP AND GOT THE BEST, WHILE THE REST USING M16 AND THEIR DERIVATIVES ARE JUST TAKING A STEP BACKWARDS. 416 ALL THE WAY.

  • @HUEJOHNSON There have been a number of reports of the 416 not coping to well with low temperatures. But except from that it is an excellent weapon.

  • @ArghBlahr CAN HAPPEN TO ANY WEAPON, MOVING PARTS COVERED IN MOISTURE IN A COLD CLIMATE ARE PRONE TO FREEZE. U SHOOT, MELTS THE SNOW ON THE BARREL, U DONT SHOOT IT FREEZES. THE GAS SYSTEM MAY STOP WORKING AND THE SHELL MAY NOT EJECT, BUT ONCE ITS CLEARED NO PROB. LIKE SHOOTIN THE 416 UNDER WATER. IF THIS WAS AN M4 IT WOULD EXPLODE.

  • @HUEJOHNSON chill dude...

  • @ghostwor WHAT YOU TALKIN BOUT CHILL?

  • @HUEJOHNSON lol, caps raeg! XD

  • @jdslipknot WWWWWWWWWWWHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTT­TTT AAAAAAAAAAAA RRRRRRRUUUUUUUUUUUSSSSSSSSSSSS­SHHHH!!!!!  CAPS RAGE!!!!!

  • @HUEJOHNSON Wow so bad that your stupid M16/M4 kills many bad guys in the world and may be they good enough to protect our country since 1960s mister.

  • @jakkree2029 THE LETHALITY OF THE ROUND FIRED IS NOT WHAT IS BEING QUESTIONED HERE. ITS THE RELIABLITY, AND DRUABILITY OF THE WEAPONS SYSTEM THAT IS BEING QUESTIONED. ITS FUNNY HOW PEEPS TALK ABOUT HOW DEADLY A GUN IS, THE GUN IN AND OF ITSELF IS NOTHING WITHOUT THE AMMO BEING FIRED. SO IMAGINE YOURSELF IN A FIREFIGHT WITH ME, USING AN M4, WHILE IM USING A 416. ID KILLYOU 9/10 TIMES. MULTIPLY THAT IN A DIRTY ENVIRONMENT. SAY THE DESERTS OF IRAQ/AFGHAN, OR JUNGLES OF VIETNAM. YOU JAM, YOU DIE.

  • @HUEJOHNSON Ok I understand what r u trying to say I know how reliable Hk416 is but what i really mean is the M16 and the M4 is good enough it's safe many soldier life and many of them that i talk to(the marines and armies)don't easily have problem with it and I'm really sure that in the nearly future the HK416 will be replace the M4 if it's good enough.

  • @jakkree2029 THE 416 IS GOOD ENOUGH, ITS JUST THAT THE COLT LOBBY, THE COMPANY WHO MANUFACTURES THE M16/M4, GOTS ITS HANDS IN THE GENERALS POCKETS.  THE M16 IS A GOOD RIFLE, IN A CLEAN ENVIRONMENT, BUT ONCE IT STARTS GETTING DIRTY, PROBLEMS BEGIN TO ARISE. THIS IS COMPOUNDED BY THE DI SYSTEM, DEPOSITING CARBON FOULING INTO THE FIRING MECHANISM. HAVE YOU EVER TRIED CLEANING AN M16 AFTER SHOOTING OFF 5 FULL MAGS, YOU'LL BE THERE ALL DAY CLEANING THE FUCKER. CARBON EVERYWHERE.

  • @HUEJOHNSON Too bad the ammo we're firing in Norway makes us ill. Fucking "eco-friendly" ammunition and our tree-hugging government -.-

  • @Pinter333 HOW DOES THE ECO-FRIENDLY AMMO CAUSE ILLNESS. I THOUGHT THEY REMOVED THE LEAD CORE AND REPLACED IT WITH A STEEL TIP, AND A COPPER/STEEL CORE. PLEASE ELABORATE.

  • @HUEJOHNSON Steel core? Steel core bullets are also known as armor piercing rounds. Not your standard infantry round.

  • @azulnox DEPENDS. THE US ARMY REALEASED A NEW ROUND THAT WAS ENVIRONMENTALLY SAFE, THE M855A1, LOOK IT UP. STACKED STEEL CONE PENITRATOR TIP, WITH A FULL COPPER BODY. ENHANCED PERFORMANCE. INFINTRY AND MARINE STANDARD AS OF JUNE 2010. TAILORED TO THE M4, AND ALSO ENHANCES PREFORMANCE IN THE M16 AND M249. BASICALLY ALL 5.56MM CHAMBERED FIREARMS. REPORTEDLY STATED THAT IT FRAGMENTS CONSISTANTLY BETTER THAN THE OLD M855, BETTER ACCURACY, CONSISTANT STOPPING POWER AT ALL RANGES, AND DEPENDABILITY.

  • @HUEJOHNSON because they dont have the money to restock dumb fuck.

  • @wannabejarhead2 WHO THE US MILITARY? NO WONDER YOU A WANNABEJARHEAD, YOU'RE TOO STUPID TO BECOME A REAL MARINE.  SOUNDS LIKE YOUR JAR IS EMPTY TOO, MAYBE YOU SHOULD FILL IT WITH SAND SO THAT YOU CAN SAY THAT YOU ACTUALLY HAVE A BRAIN. THE US ARMY HAS JUST PURCHASED 400K MORE M4'S, AND YOU'RE TELLING ME THAT THEY CANT AFFORD TO RESTOCK. FUCKIN MORON THAT YOU ARE. THEY COULD HAVE BOUGHT 350K 416 AND COULD SAVE MORE LIVES. ON TOP OF THAT, THEY BUYIN PISTON KITS FOR THIER M4'S. IDIOT.

  • the guy behind the gun matters more

  • @HUEJOHNSON hey man we are signed with colt right now.......HK could be in our future though......and this gun is based off the M4/M16 platform but i do agree this gun is far more superior

  • @DukeRNT The only thing that makes it different is that piston system that it has, which american companies have replicated, so H&K isn't the only company with a M4 piston system rifle. We may switch to this, but why go with a foriegn company when you can go with an american one that makes the same product?

  • @DukeRNT THIS GUN IS EVERYTHING THE M16 COULD HAVE BEEN. IT IS SUPERIOR IN EVERYWAY. FROM CLEANLYNESS, DURABILITY, RELIABILITY AND ACCURACY. TO SWITCH OVER TO THIS PLATFORM, WOULD BE NEGLIGABLE IN TRAINING COSTS, BUT AN IMPROVMENT IN SOLDIER ENGAGEMENTS IN THE FIELD. LESS JAMS AND MALFUNCTIONS = MORE DEAD BAD GUYS. JUST GOT TO GET THE ARMY TO GET ITS HEAD OUT ITS ASS, AND STOP BABYSITTING THE COLT LOBBY. THIS IS THE GUN WE AND MOST COUNTRIES USING M16'S NEED.

  • Comment removed

  • @xxXKAZHXxx

    No it's not.

  • Comment removed

  • @HUEJOHNSON problem is the DOD is in bed with colt. they dont care about troop safety and about american lives. its run like a business. and since they are cozy with colt and bushmaster they wont change. i sure wish we could ask all those US troops that were all killed off in that FOB near pakistan when all their guns overheated and jammed which weapon system they would prefer... one of the many reasons i didnt re enlist. its fucking disgusting.

  • @n8032 READ MY POST AT THE TOP, SAYS THE SAMETHING.

    The reason they decided not to use it is because this weapon is much more expensive than an m4 or m16. Plus, when this was introduced to them, they had already ordered a CRAP TON of m4s and m16s from colt, and they didn't want to put them to waste, so they only bought a handful of the 416 and have had high special operations forces use them, and they are well established having already been used in the field by navy seals and delta force. Plus, you forgot the US Marine corps.

  • @Lardman678 THE MARINES HAVE ORDERED THEM FOR THEIR IAR WHICH IS BEING FIELD TESTED AS WE SPEAK. THE ARMY HAS BOUGHT A SHIT LOAD OF M4'S LIKE MORONS, AND HAVE ALSO BEEN TESTING AND PLAN TO PURCHASE PISTON CONVERSION KITS FOR THEM. THEY SPENDING CASH ON BULLSHIT, WHEN THEY COULD JUST BUY THE UPPER OF THE 416 OR THE WHOLE SYSTEM AND REPLACE THE FAULTY M16/M4 WITH THIS AMAZING PIECE OF KIT. RIGHT NOW THE 416 IS BEING USED BY SPEC OPS, HMMM I WONDER WHY, WHY NOT THE SCAR L.

  • @HUEJOHNSON

    I didn't hear about the Marine Corps' order of the 416. Thank you, just another thing to put on my list of Reasons I'm joining the Marine Corps. And the M16 and M4 are not necessarily faulty, but more along the lines of not completely reliable. The m16a4 doesn't seem to have a problem with jamming and stuff, but with the shortened system of the m4, sometimes after a long ammo intensive battle, the m4 have been known to jam a little.

  • @Lardman678 THE MARINES HAVE BEEN FIELD TESTING THE 416 AS THIER IAR DERIVATIVE. THE M16/M4 IS A FAULTY SYSTEM. THE FULL LENGTH BARRELS ARE LESS PRONE TO JAMMING BUT IT STILL IS UNRELIABLE. ANY DI SYSTEM IS PRONE TO FAILURE DUE TO ITS NATURE. THIS SYSTEM IS BY FAR SUPERIOR TO CURRENT M4 SYSTEMS. YET THE ARMY IN THIER INFINITE KNOWLEDGE HAVE PROCURED MORE AND ARE PLANNING TO PURCHASE PISTON CONVERSION KITS. MAKES NO SENSE TO ME, WHY NOT JUST BUY THIS SYSTEM.

  • Hmm, An HK416, with an extended magazine, grip handle, acog scope, suppressor, and a flashlight, would be the greatest gift anyone could ever give to me

  • Same gun that this is believed to have taken out Usama bin laden

  • i hate the look of it give a m16 rail and a longer barrel

  • is cool an all but DID YOU SEE HOW CLEAN THE GUN IS? lol xD

  • the best thing is, its a german weapon.... Deutschland!!!!!

  • @Sledgehammer9876543 It was a combined effort between US gun companies and HK.

  • most likely this is the gun that took out osama bin raghead!!!!

  • I wouldent be suprised if the M16/M4 is phased out and the HK416 becomes the US.Army's weapon of choice

  • @Wardog687

    The USMC is currently field testing the HK416 (M27) auto-version in Afghanistan to eventually replace the M249 SAW. I hope so, the SAW is a piece of shit! I hope they eventually replace all M-4s with HK416s. Just wishful thinking though.

  • @Oddballmarine90 Yea i know, I myself have never liked the M16 or the M4, My personal weapon of choice has always been an AK-47, I only chose that simply because that weapon is reliable, where as the M16 isnt

  • @Oddballmarine90 The SAW is really a piece of shit . Which idiot creates a machinegun and uses the 5,56 caliber , How stupid is that ? Its like putting a 22. into a Desert Eagle . HK 416 FTW !

  • @chabi3000 r u mad?

  • @Nanobagongo1 Oh wait . sry . I found out that the 5.56 penetrates body armour better than the 7.62

  • does this cost more to make than an m4? if not than why aren't our military corps using it?

  • THIS GUN AS OF NOW, SHOULD BE REPLACING THE M16/M4 IN FRONT LINE UNITS. HELL THE WHOLE MILITARY SHOULD BE USING THESE WEAPONS. FAMILIAR, EASY TO TRAIN ON, DUE TO RESEMBALANCE TO M16, EASY TO CLEAN, EXTREMLY RELIABLE, BAD ASS ALL AROUND GUN. THE MARINES HAVE SMARTEND UP AND HAVE CHOSEN IT FOR THEIR IAR. IF ONLY THE ARMY WOULD GET ITS HEAD OUT OF ITS ASS AND DO THE SAME, BUT THANKS TO LOBBY GROUPS, THEY PREVENT THIS FROM GETTING INTO OUR TROOPS HANDS.

  • @HUEJOHNSON Hey retard, maybe because guns cost money.

  • @turtlehater2 HEY RETARD WHY DONT U GO AND STICK UR HEAD BACK UP UR ASS. U OBVIOUSLY DONT KNOW JACK SHIT. THE ARMY SPENDS MILLIONS OF DOLLARS PRECURING MORE UNRELIABLE M4A1'S BECAUSE OF THE COLT LOBBY AND THE FACT THAT THEY ARE CHEAPER THEN THE HK 416. INSTEAD OF SPENDING THAT MONEY ON GARBAGE, THEY SHOULD UPGRADE TO THIS BEAUTY, FOR THE REASONS STATED IN MY PREVIOUS POST.

  • @HUEJOHNSON "THE FACT THAT THEY ARE CHEAPER THEN THE HK 416"

    Might've answered your question Captain Capslock.

  • @turtlehater2 YA CHEAPER AND SHITTIER, YET THEY GONNA BUY UP A BUNCH OF CONVERSION KITS TO CHANGE THE M4 INTO PISTON OPERATED INSTEAD OF DI. FUCKIN MORONS, THEY COULD CUT THEMSELVES COSTS IF THEY BOUGHT THIS HI TECH, HI QUALITY PIECE OF KIT, INSTEAD OF SLAPPIN TOGETHER A BUNCH OF MAKE SHIFT PIECES WHICH I PREDICT WILL CAUSE MORE PROBLEMS. THATS WHAT U CALL GEAR FROM THE LOWEST BIDDER. DONT HATE THE CAPS, JUST HATE URSELF.
