Heckler and Koch VP9 and VP9sk

TacOfficer · 11-07-2017, 21:23

I'm embarrassed to say, but I must confess my search talents have failed me.
I've been searching the threads and haven't found a discussion on the VP9 or sk.
If there is one, could someone help a brother and point me in the right direction?

Otherwise, does anyone have experience or a vague opinion? I currently carry G19 and G17, but the HKs may be a possibility in my future. Due to policy, Im restricted to 9mm (yes I know, .45 set to stun, I get it

).

Thanks in advance.

Thank you 7624U for the link,

Other than 2018commo stating that he bought one for his wife and other listed it as a possible choice for the lady shooter , i didn't see much discussion of the pistol it self.

I'll keep digging around the internet, you know how it is. So many airsofters and fanboys that base their opinion on the advertising. Some of the articles seem sincere but others appear to be cut and paste from HK's ad department.

I have not shot her pistol much, but I like the sights and the magazine release vs the Glock, I find the two very similar performance wise.
Larry Vickers is a big fan of the VP9, Google is your friend.

I don't have a reason to ditch my G19, but I have always been interested in the HK. As a young lad the USP had a certain appeal to me. Now the VP9 is under consideration by my dept for approval and my eye is starting to wander back towards the HK.

As we all know, TS is a big fan of the HK45, but we're restricted to 9mm striker fire. I need to get out and fire one.

I love my HK P30.

G19s are good pistols and king of the mountain in the pistol world. They're absolutely reliable until people start switching out parts to get an acceptable trigger. Seen one during a TRC class that couldn't get back up and running despite cleaning.

HK magazines are expensive, and a Gray guns trigger job will run $300+, but the triggers are good out of the box. HKs are the best gun if you can afford them.

That's my .02
