Heckler and Koch VP9 9mm Luger 4.09″ Black Steel Slide Pistol – 2 Mags (17+1)

It doesn’t just feel great. It shoots great.

In any firearm, especially a handgun, the many "touchpoints" between the shooter and the firearm are critical to consistent, repeatable, performance. The touchpoints we've emphasized on the VP that may actually help you improve on the range as well.

Experience gained by HK engineers with the P30 hammer-fired pistol had a direct influence on the design of the VP9, but the VP9 breaks new ground with its integration of a unique striker firing system with an enhanced Heckler and Koch "light pull" trigger. The net result is a pistol with custom-fit ergonomics with trigger quality unequaled in any production striker fired handgun.

Heckler and Koch VP9 9mm Luger Trigger

The Heckler and Koch VP9 9mm Luger trigger surpasses those found on competitors. It has a short, light take-up with a solid, single action type break followed by a short positive reset. The VP trigger has a consistent pre-travel pull with a positive wall/crisp break. Typically, striker fired guns have a pre-travel pull that increases in weight as you go through the trigger stroke. With the VP, you have a less than noticeable pre-travel pull until the trigger reaches the engagement point of the fire control parts prior to trigger break.

Ergonomic, adjustable grip

Every detail, including the grip angle, the contour of the front strap and the high rear saddle were chosen to fit the human hand. And the adaptable grip frame allows you to interchange both backstraps and grip panels in 27 unique configurations to fit your hand. All of these features help you get the same consistent grip, every time you pick up your Heckler and Koch VP9 9mm Luger.

Striker Fired

The VP Series pistols use a striker fired ignition and a modified Browning operating system combined with an optimal precision strike trigger control system — it is in essence a premium Heckler and Koch P30 frame mated to an advanced striker fired slide design. Materials include proprietary Heckler and Koch VP9 9mm Luger steel for barrel, slide, springs, pins, and internal components.

In addition to these features, all controls are completely ambidextrous including HK's patented charging supports — simple components that are mounted on each side of the rear of the slide and provide better gripping leverage for racking the slide rearward. The charging supports speed reloading and make operating the VP9 easier for shooters with reduced hand strength. The VP pistols uses the proven P30 steel magazine; 17, 15 and 10-round capacity available.

The VP9 has an extended Picatinny MIL-STD-1913 rail molded into its polymer frame for mounting lights and accessories. The rail has been tested and certified to handle mounted accessories up to 5.6 ounces. The VP9’s proprietary captive flat recoil spring helps reduce the recoil forces effecting the operator and the handgun, improving shooter control during rapid firing and prolonging component service life.

HK's famous cold hammer forged barrel — made from cannon grade steel — ensures long service life. Similar HK barrels on 9 mm P30 models fired more than 90,000 rounds in endurance tests in 2010. The polygonal bore profile, with no traditional lands-and-grooves rifling, contributes to longer service life as well as a slight increase in muzzle velocity. The VP9's machined steel slide is protected from corrosion and wear by HK's hostile environment finish.
