HK93 vs V93(vector)?

Question

I know you can't beat German engineering and that the real HK93 is better but as far as reliability is the vector version close to being as good? I can buy the real one for $3000(comes with colapsing stock, 1 40rnd, 3 25rnd mags, bayonet, bipod sling, handle, all orinal hk 93etc. I would have to sell alot of my stuff to come close to getting it or should I just get the vector around $1200 and keep most of my stuff?

Answer 1

Buy the Vector.

The HK's are great, but overpriced.

The Vectors are a decent price considering the alternative. Plus they have the correct military style mag release that the HK's don't have

Answer 2

Yes, you can beat german engineering, the swiss have been doing it for centuries.

I think a lot of H&K product ride on a fanboy reputation. Sure, it's good, but it is very comparable to all sorts of other much lower priced stuff.

Take a look at H&K's PSG-1 'sniper rifle' there are many equally accurate, durable, and reliable semiauto long range military appication type rifles for a quarter of the price, AND they have the ability to mount scopes that can be dialed in for ranges greater than 600 yards.
