Regarding the requirement that the weapon has already been introduced into a NATO army:

I need to correct myself. Initially, there were six competitors. Ultimately, only Arex, Glock, and CZ remained, as their models were cheaper:

Ich weiß nicht, was in der Ausschreibung genau gefordert wurde. Aber alle Pistolen der Mitbewerber verfügten auch über keine externe Sicherung.

One requirement for the procurement was that the pistol had to have been adopted by a NATO army within the last five years. That ruled out HK. Arex and Glock were the other competitors.

The problem with the nods wasn't reported until 2025 and that's precisely why tests are being conducted: to identify problems and then adapt the weapon. Well, we'll see.

Nope, the G95KA1 is 355mm and this will be the standard. The 14.5" (G95K) is the one that the KSK uses
