[edit] Merger

No, while related they are two different designs.Paulwharton (talk) 01:49, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Oppose. Same Reason as Paulwharton. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.81.226.247 (talk) 23:21, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

It seems to me that the only difference listed is in the caliber. Fresnel149 (talk) 12:46, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

The HK417 & HK416 differs in weight, rifling, calibre, looks, models & firepower., They are two diffrent guns! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.191.81.75 (talk) 04:17, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Definitely a Difference in aesthetics, caliber fired, firepower...it's a completely different firearm —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thor.Norway (talk • contribs) 18:17, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

It is NOT a different weapon. It's the same weapon, chambered for a different round. To have the HK416 and HK417 article as seperate is ridiculous, especially when the Mk16 and Mk17 rifles (SCAR-L and SCAR-H) are combined in one article.--Darth Windu (talk) 13:32, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

SUPPORT - all the differences are simply the result of a larger caliber. They are the same firearm. Koalorka (talk) 16:06, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Support per above. These firearms are the same with the exception of caliber, which causes differences in other ways. Essentially it's the same weapon with a bigger round.13Tawaazun14 (talk) 18:28, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

Support The 416 and 417 are different versions of the same product. --CLS (talk) 17:43, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] AR-15 Vaariants

y is this an AR-15 variant? expect the desing there is nothing in common with any AR weapon.--Sanandros (talk) 12:05, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
