No, you will likely never get a factory HK chambered in 10mm. While you may love it, the market is incredibly small. It is a niche round, no matter how much you pout. From what I know, the FBI is no longer actively using the 10mm MP5's.
Glock is able to do it because they are already have a much larger market share than HK does. They make **** for people to buy. HK doesn't aggressively market their wares.....Glock probably sells more 10mm's in a year than HK sells of any single caliber, simply because they manufacture at a much higher volume.
A simple search produced these results.
I'd just do the 10mm build like you read about. Nothing wrong with a built, non-factory spec gun. These are service pistols, and unlike what a lot of HKPRO people think, they're not collectors items and won't be for some significant amount of time. Chop'em up, have fun.
