HK has a plastic trigger, mag release ON trigger guard
and they have horrible business ethics. Imagine how much money they could make if they put aside their hatred of us lowly civilians and made EBRs in their american factories. they just sell the neutered sl-8 and ship it loose in cardboard boxes with no support to keep it from banging around.
Ill add 1911s as overrated (flame suit on.)
I love 1911s, but know so amny people who hype it as 10x better than everything else and how nothing is worth of a 1911. I think their great, nut you need a 2000 dolalr 1911 to reach SIG reliability, and Im not an SAO type of guy. Ill always enjoy shooting them, and will own one (or 2) someday, but whenever someone says a colt 1911 is better than anything on the market I laugh.
Ill second AKs, you already listed the main points, not to mention every noob in the world is convinced they can't jam.
