HK41 - Production data

[SAH]

I have an HK 41 rifle and have some production data about the rifle, but there seems to be some contradicting information out there about how many rifles were actually produced. Most references say that about 400 were produced, but can anyone point to a more reliable source of information?

Thanks

Thanks for coming back to me so quickly - enclosed are two photos of the firearm. Its a 1975 manufacture, but with Serial # 001512 E, I'm a little confused as this would suggest that more than 400 were made.

Thanks for the number---there were 2 series--- those from 11/65 to 6/66, and then yours from 1974 to 1975--- let me check my data and respond tomorrow!!!

1,350 total HK41's manufactured between 1966-1975, with @ 400 imported into the U.S. (1974 riles)!!!

i had a chance to get one about 12 years ago , but it was not cared for at all. looked like it was dragged behind a truck most of it's life.

That's great - thanks. Those numbers make much more sense given the serial number of mine. Can you tell me about any online or books that are good sources of HK serial number information? I have the opportunity to acquire a much older HK41 (very low serial number) and I also own a number of HK MP5's / HK 94 that I would like to know much more about.... Rgs SAH
