HK 93

[CLASSIC12]

Saw an ad from a private seller with a long list of pistols and some rifles. There was an HK 93. I asked for a few pics and when I received them decided to buy it. Made in 1975. Came with several mags (although I don’t have high hopes for the proMag).
Price was $ 880

Well, no confusing date codes to decipher on that one .

I recall seeing these briefly for sale over here in the 1980s. No idea what their current value is but they are uncommon.

An original HK93 (not clone) is $3500 plus in the U.S.
Nice buy!

Yikes! Does that mean I should have bought at $699? That was twice the price of a Colt AR-15!

This time I'm a big fan. Original invoice from 1984 also. I got an "FFL offer": any 91, 93, 94, many as you could afford-$399. The VP70Z with 4 18 rd mags was a bonus @ $199. Joe

I remember seeing an HK91 back in 1984, IIRC it retailed around $1k.

The Century HK93 clone was around $400 a few years ago, was tempted but not really a fan of the design although I have a CETME and an HK91 PTR clone.

CLASSIC12 - Great price on a real nice rifle. I used to have one with the retractable stock, as well as a HK-91a2 with the fixed stock. Both were $499 each, thru an FFL buddy....

My 93 was never particularly accurate, and I sold it, and the 91 (I found an early CETME that was as reliable, and more accurate) for big bucks when they stopped importing them, and prices went crazy. I seem to have migrated to the AR platform when it comes to 5.56. HK makes a fine rifle. I attached a poor scan of an old photo. It carried just fine in a gym bag...
