Let's hope Wilcox comes through for us.
I would love to buy a U.S. built semi-auto 16" HK417 next year.

Just got off the phone with a certain Fed LE rep in Ashburn. I was told the 417's in 12" and 20" are currently available for agency purchase and the 16" isn't far off. I was quoted $2880 for the 12" and $2990 for the 16". Just figured I'd give you guys a heads up.

A 16 inch 417 is VERY tempting. I might put my M14 away for that.
Let those who are fond of blaming and finding fault, while they sit safely at home, ask, ‘Why did you not do thus and so?’I wish they were on this voyage; I well believe that another voyage of a different kind awaits them.”

Somebody touring the HK Germany factory took these HK417 photos very recently. It’s enough to get me drooling for the U.S. made Wilcox rifles.
Very nice! Thank you for sharing VA Dinger! I'm sure you'd be considered a hero if you posted these over on HKPRO.

It seems the HK417 is already seeing action with the Dutch SF.
Looks like they also bought HK416's.
Not to mention Turkey seems to have placed a very large order for the HK416.
