The upcoming HK416A8 for the Bundeswehr are being test fired in Panama. Here you can see the G95A1 with the new "Hauptkampfvisier" (main combat sight), the ELCAN Specter DR, and thermal attachment. Particularly exciting: a normal sliding stock, not the shoulder piece as in the tender. And the front weapon has a M-LOK Rail instead of the private disclosure of HKey, which is not compatible with anything worldwide.

Weapon test in Panama: What are the guys doing? They are having fun with the MG instead of leading the HK416A8 from HECKLER & KOCH to the border. Equipped with a fresh main combat sight, M-LOK Rail, and weapon laser LLM Vario-Ray from RHEINMETALL in the green grass of Central America.
