Actually, I'm not so sure I'd want them to make the HK94 again. Or at least, not the bastardized HK94 that was so "neutered" that H&K couldn't even give it a proper magazine release like that on the MP5, or a lower receiver set up to accept registered auto sears easily. The current crop of MP5 clones made in the U.S. may not be quite the same production quality, but in every other respect, I like them better than the HK94.

It's not too surprising to me that HK doesn't want to produce the HK90 series guns again, considering that the roller-locking guns in general are now being phased out of production. It wouldn't make sense for them to produce the HK91 and HK93 anymore, for instance, now that the G3 and HK33 (their full-auto relatives) are no longer produced for military/LE.
