The actions by the US Government banning the importation of many
advanced semi-automatic rifles has prevented rifles like the HK91,
HK93, and HK94 from being brought into the US. However, the US
Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms has certified the SR9
Sporting Rifle, SR9(T) and the PSG1 Marksman's Rifle as legal for
importation and civilian ownership.
The SR9 continues the tradition of the HK91 but with several important
modifications that make it the ideal sporter, target rifle, and heavy-duty
hunter. Polygonal rifling is standard on the SR9, the same bore profile
found on the PSG1 Marksman's Rifle.
Also standard is the new MSG90 buffer system, a significant improvement
over the older system found on HK imitations. This makes the SR9 rifle
one of the lowest recoil semi-automatics in the world. It is equipped
with a specially designed thumbhole stock constructed of kevlar-reinforced
fiberglass that is both durable and ergonomic.
A target version of the SR9, the SR9(T) adds a special MSG90 adjustable
buttstock, PSG1 trigger group, and a PSG1 contoured handgrip to the
standard SR9 rifle configuration.
