What happens when a bunch of NATO countries ask for an infantry rifle with a delayed recoil impulse? The Germans whip out their notes on space magic, they glue together a bunch of leftover takeout containers, and they throw in a bunch of gears and cogs from a Swiss watch and call it a rifle!The G11 is a prototype select-fire rifle made by Heckler & Koch, GmbH that fires proprietary caseless ammunition. Development of the G11 began in 1968 and was discontinued

Hk G11 Capacity
The HK G11 uses 4.73mm caseless ammunition and feeds from polymer single-stack magazines with a standard capacity of 50 rounds. This caseless ammo was incredibly fragile and would be shipped in 5 and 10 round polymer cases to prevent damage, however this problem of fragility caused most potential users to decide against adopting the G11.
Hk G11 Feature
The G11 is a select-fire prototype assault rifle that operates on LSD and kraut space magic to provide the user with a recoil impulse that doesn’t hit the user until after the last round of a 3-round burst leaves the barrel. This bullpup rifle is equipped with a 30 inch barrel topped with a windage and elevation adjustable 3.5x fixed power scope.
Hk G11 Ergonomics
The G11 has an incredibly bulky and boxy feel aside from its MP5 inspired pistol grip. The ambidextrous safety is located over the grip in similar fashion to an AR15, but the rest of the controls are definitely unique. The charging handle is located on the left side and is wound up like a clock, the magazine release is located under the scope, and the magazines are slid into position from the front. There isn’t much about this rifle that can be called “intuitive”.
Hk G11 Mobility
Measuring 30 inches long with an unloaded weight of 8 pounds, the G11 offers little improvement over AR15 and AK47 pattern rifles, especially when accounting for the handling and fragile ammo issues.
Hk G11 Fit-N-Finish
The G11 has outside components that are made of very light polymer, but let’s be honest…who in their right mind would want to clean the insides, let alone dare disassemble it? The bolt assembly might as well be from an alien space ship.
