some more HK info FYI

[ODDJOB UNO]

as you know i am the classic HK nut and have been for many years. well heres some MORE HK CUSTOMER SERVICE KUDOS...............


shipped that police trade in HK USP .45 out late friday to HK georgia. didnt know if they were open sat. so i told shipping gal monday is fine for signature delivery.

get into office(orfice) at 610am my time. 1 st thing i do is check tracking and sho nuff HK GEORGIA has signed for it.


had to go to vendor this am. at about 1045am my time i get a call from the HK smithy named sam. he goes thru everything they did and replaced.

HK match trigger kit entails a vast majority of springs on it. i paid for that kit.

wanted new left side variant one decocker. i paid for that.

needed new recoil springs. no charge. and unless yer HK georgia you aint checking it at home with a beer on yer bench, as it takes the armorers tools to do this. ask me how i know? i have the armorers manual showing all tools needed to be an HK armorer, and its entailed. just like looking at yer 911 shop manual and seeing all the TOOLS and FIXTURES needed to the job the german way, not the moron way.


and the best for last. sam asks me "have you fired it?" and i stated "NO." and then "WHY?" and he explained the slide had been refinished, and when they(?cdnnsports or po-po cop shop in san bernadino,calif.) media blasted slide they filled the FREEKING FIRING PIN HOLE with blast media crap!


this was NOT GOING TO GO BANG..............LIKE NEV-AR!


so i asked sam if he would be so kind, as he was going to send it back to me overnight if i needed it, to proof shoot it for me, and he said sure. i should have it back by end of week sometime.

cost:


match trigger kit-$129.95
decocker- $33.00
his shipping $22.27

total out da door for a GIANT WARM FREEKING FUZZY-$184.27



and thats a STEAL!


so the lesson learned from ODDJOB UNO purveyor of fine HK's.....................never shoot a used/or police trade-in without bringing it to a QUALIFIED(not a hackmeister)ARMORER before carrying or firing.



nice warm fuzzies are PRICELESS!



p.s. and yes there IS AN HK SPECIAL TOOL TO CLEAN OUT FIRING PIN HOLE!

oh pics by all means. and then the "group shots" with (3) flavas of ammo.


i would love to read real honest to gawd horror stories from certified gunsmiths and some of the crap they get to work on by shadetree garage hackmeisters on fine quality spoons.
