Only reason I'm posting this (REALLY!) is I thought AR's were suposed to be safe to fire wet?  :-\

The H&K 416 is a piston weapon, not direct impingement like the Colt. Piston actuated AR's fire better when exposed to water. LWRC AR-15's are capable of much the same thing. H&K didn't come up with anything new here.  Bill T.

Should have thought about FQ once again rethinking the AR-AK thing because down here? If you need to use it for its intended purpose, God knows you're going to wind up in the water (canal, pond, intercoastal, whatever) sooner rather than later. Damn you Badger! ;D :-\
FQ13 who ten minutes ago was perfectly happy with his AR and brand new toad wackinator. >:(

Went to a lot of trouble to blow up a perfectly good rifle!  I would have taken it for free and saved him a lot of trouble.

Really I would have.

Really nice HK builds and tests such a durable weapon. Cause their retail civilian customer service leaves much to be desired.

Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
Col. Jeff Cooper.

You will note the test gun was full auto. It wasn't marketed to you or me. After all, who wants to mess with a market numbering in the millions when you can just sell to government agencies? Gun makers for gun control! ??? Paging Bill Ruger (sorry, I couldn't resist). ;D

Hey, I did everything I could to steer you straight before your money was spent on that AR!  You were just misdirected by all the internet ninja's.   ;)

Now that prices are back down, just think of all the cool AK stuff you could cash in on if you got rid of that poodle shooter!  :)

It's never to late to go AK!!!  ;D ;D ;D
