Act fast to get your hands on one of these civilian utility carbines that haven’t been offered in the US since 2013.

German gun manufacturer Heckler & Koch showed off their USC – a civilian utility carbine – at the NRA show earlier this month in Dallas. The carbine, which they are currently only making 1000 of available in the US, kicks off what they tell us is going to be a series of limited production models for the esteemed brand.
