I would be most interested in the SP5K but I'm thinking they will most likely be coming out with the VP45 which I am already planning on buying. I've noticed over the years that HK likes to spread out new releases a bit so one doesn't steal sales from the other. Maybe they will announce one at shot and one at the NRA convention.
I was told the SP5K will not serve as a host because the Germans are making it impossible to convert. If that holds true it will probably die out quickly. I was disappointed, but it did not surprise me.
Even if this was so, it would mean that parts (bolt head) would not be restricted anymore and become available NIW for normal prices again and you could build proper clones at reasonable prices.
I'm at the point I don't believe anything from H&K. There are plenty of options for good quality roller locks in the U.S. now. The 293 was my holdout but I have converted my SL8 to G36K (stub fuse). I wouldn't hold my breath for anything good. Just my 2 cents. I waited for the 293 now paided double to have one. I would have gladly gave them my money.
I am patient. Had to start playing Iron Force on my iPad to pass the time. I have hade time to acquire (clones) MP5/sbr 9mm,MP5/10mm full size and k, MP5SD,MKE 33K,2 UMP's 45 40 9mm and a G36k . Nothing cool from HK that didn't take as much or more than the gun cost to modify to coolness. Next purchase will be the MKE 41. If MKE can do it why can't H&K????
Hoping for MR556A3, VP9SK, and VP45T. Too much to ask?
