Arguably one of the most beautiful weapons in contemporary history, the HK416 seems to be the gun that's quite special for me. Although visually near-indistinguishable from the M4 Carbine, it uses a gas-piston system and was developed in an era (GWOT specifically) when carbines were a little bit unreliable, of which the HK416 was the answer to that problem.

As time passed, improvements with the M4A1 and its derivatives made the HK416 seem a bit redundant nowadays, with users claiming the gun suffered from overgassing (too much gas returning to the system, causing heavy recoil) and being a little heavier than the M4A1.

Still, the HK416 enjoys widespread use by police and militaries worldwide, most of them being special forces. To add to that, operators within Japanese SFG, SBU, and the SAT use the HK416 as well, showing that despite the gun's age, there's still some place for the HK416.

So why the HK416? Nothing much, really. I thought that Brian deserved a specops operator gun like the HK416 and thought it'd fit her nicely. There's nothing else about it unlike the Kitasan one where I actually thought about the gun's history and qualities, and related it to Kitasan's history.
