    HK 94 9mm's - reliability?

    Hi I am interested in an actual HK 94 9mm Semi auto carbine. NOT a clone. I am aware how pricey they are. Does anyone know if these are as reliable as HK's get? I know no firearm is 100%, but will they pretty much eat any ammo? do they require certain types to feed properly? Are the mags decently available?

    I would like to hear from anyone that has experience or knowledge on this. Again, not about clones, not interested in one.

    Many thanks,
    Rob

    the only problems i have ever heard of was using the straight mags with Hollow points But HK solved that problem by going with the Curve Mag .
    I have shot a few and Never have heard of any major problems with the HK94 all weapons can have a malfunction from time to time But with proper cleaning you are GTG

    I've got about 3 of them going on 10 years without a hiccup.

    So long as you don't try and use aftermarket magazines you'll be fine.

    You also have to be careful with people who try and install MP5 trigger frames on 94s. Not everyone can shelf one properly and that can cause problems.

    My MP5 has run well for over twenty five years.

    The most annoying stoppages I have experienced using Winchester White Box ball, military ball, Federal Hydra Shoks, and Winchester Silver Tips have been empty cases getting under the bolt and carrier, jamming the weapon between the lower and rear end of the magazine

    That's in addition to the four MP5s.

    That is a common problem with many clones. Never seen it happen to a factory gun. Is yours a factory original SMG or 94 conversion? Swing down?
