Some absolutely great new photos of part of Heckler & Koch’s product range have emerged. Taken by German photographer Oliver Louven, a Bundeswehr veteran, the photos feature a plethora of Heckler & Koch’s current range of small arms.
Louven, an accomplished photographer, has worked for a number of manufacturers inluding H&K, Sauer, Zeiss and Hornady. The following photos come from two sections for product and ‘application’ photography, first up the HK416F-C, the ‘C’ or Court (French for short) model of the French Army’s newly adopted rifle has an 11 inch barrel.
HK416F-C
HK433
Sadly, Louven has only shared one photo of H&K’s latest, the HK433, the rifle appears to be a 12.5″ barrel variant also mounted with an Aimpoint. Full technical details on the HK433 are available on H&K’s site here.
HK417
Next up is the, 7.62x51mm chambered, HK417A2 complete with H&K’s new style fore-end, B&T Rotex-V .308/7.62mm suppressor, optic and bipod for the designated marksman role. The HK417 is currently being examined and adopted by the US army as the M110A1.
HK233
The final rifle showcased is a rare treat, as few decent photos of it are widely available. H&K’s revamped G36, the HK233, is shown both in profile and in action. Technical details on the HK233 can be found on H&K’s site here.
HK SFP9
Finally, we have some shots of the HK SFP9, marketed in the US as the VP9, which has recently been procured by Berlin’s police force.
