HK416N (barrel dimensions and markings)

[Slappy]

Hi,
I’m from Germany and going to build an HK416N (VFC HK416 basis) for my norwegian-kit.
So excuse me for writing in English.
If I posted in the wrong board-categorie, please excuse me, I wasn't sure.



It would be great if you can help me with this:

I need the exact dimensions of the barrel, for producing an outerbarrel-extension.
This dimensions and the outer-diameter of the barrel.



(Z is the distance from the gasblock to the small groove/notch which goes around the barrel)


I also need good hires pictures of all markings to create a data to laser engrave the markings.
Especially from these:


Good pictures from the gasblock (with and without RAS) would also be great

Thank you very much!

Thanks


I still need the other dimensions and hires pictures of the markings!
Espacially from the "bajonettfeste", diameter, length etc.

It would be very nice, and in return I will publish the CAD-data and the datas for the laserengraving here if you want it.
And write a little guide for rebuilding the HK416N-gasblock

[Slappy]

Sorry for the doublepost.

I've found this , but the qualitiy is not good enough to create a good vector-data for the laserengraving.
Can anyone make a better picture? Hires with a DSLR would be perfect

Also I need still the exact dimensions of the bajonettfeste for creating the CAD-Data.
Please help me

sounds like you are serious about this project, thats nice
If you manage to make some good barrel fronts I would be very interessted in buying one

[Slappy]

Yep, very serious
I just wait to get enough informations to start.


Make a few more should be possible, just have to talk to my boss first about the using of the machines and material for more than one.
I'm study technical system designing/engineering, the stuff will be produced at the company I work.


The CAD-Data for the barrel extension is nearly finished, just need the "real" dimensions for the bajonettfeste, the dimensions I used are from pixels-counting and I want it as accurately as possible.
I'm planing also a Flashhider, but again I haven't enough informations...

[Slappy]

Nobody with a HK416N at home who can give me the missing dimensions?
I would be very thankfull if someone could give me these measures:



Just need these to start with the building of the prototype.
The CAD is waiting to get feed with the real dimensions

Wish I was able to help you out, but i returned my 416 in july.

I'll try to get you the measures, just have to call a friend and see what he can do

Will get back to you when I have talked to him.

[ops]

I`ll se what I can fix for you during the weekend.

Thanks guys.
The user UfLaX send me the missing dimensions and a lot of pictures, thanks again to UfLaX

I'm finish now with the CAD, tomorow I will control it together with my instructor/boss and make it ready for production.
I talked to him also a few days ago, about producing a few more etc.
He said its no problem if the material is payed, but it could take a while.
I let you know when everything is ready and more than one prototype can be build


Edit@5th May:
After a long break with much work and no time, I can continue the HK416N projekt
CAD is ready () and the prototype is build within the next weeks.
Painting is also planned, I'll looking for companys/gunsmiths in Germany who will paint it.
Not spraying it with paint, surface treatment which color the surface in black/grey.
Used by real firearms, but I don't know the english word for it
