Nighthawk:
I haven't "been led to believe that price" I spoke with the guy at the unit that ordered them. That was the price to the USG. Period. I would not imply that people here are lying or stupid, either.
BTW, the P7M13 shouldn't cost over $1000 either, but it does.

Attention to detail. You left out the space between the HK and the 416. The HK is too short for the search engine, but the 416 turns up 16 hits, including this one, most all have some relevance to the weapons system.
About to place order for HK417....opinions?? ( 1 2)

Funny, I am getting better than 1,000 rounds between cleanings with no malfunctions. Crane NWC's M-4 program manager tells me that the current M-4 system should be fine up to 5,000 rounds without cleaning.
What kind of M-4 are you running, what kind of mags, what ammo, how old and how many rounds do the weapons have through them, are they being maintained properly, are you lubricating them properly, and what is your MTBF/MTBS?
Inquiring minds want to know.
