Vee haff vays of making you feel insignificant!

I'm really glad that HK doesn't make revolvers. People complain about the supposed snobbishness of Python owners, but even the most rabid Colt fan can't hold a candle to the receptionist at Heckler & Koch.

How do I know, you may ask? One day I had the temerity to call them with the simple goal of obtaining a replacement trigger spring for an HK P7. To characterize the reception I got as "cold" would have been massive understatement. Siberia is a veritable tropic paradise in comparison.

Even after putting me through their version of the Nuremberg trial (boy, do they carry a grudge) they still wouldn't sell me the part.

Having therefore experienced their Teutonic haughtiness, I laughed the laugh of the knowing when I read this post at Monster Hunter Nation.

(Oh, be sure to read the comments. All of them. There are some gems there, especially toward the bottom.)
