HK VP9

[jaymc75]

Just picked one up and took it to the range.. I think it is the most accurate out of the box gun I've ever owned. Love it!

They are a different breed.  Incredible trigger pull and extremely accurate.  Mine has converted a few Glock lovers already.  I suspect we will be seeing more variants over the next couple of years.

It's the first striker fired gun I've ever owned... and I love it! Very similar to HK's LEM which is what I carry. The VP just seems to be so effortlessly accurate. I've taken a few people from work to shoot on lunch breaks and they all have a smile on their faces after the first mag.

I love my glock 19 and 30, but those may start collecting dust soon.. Can't wait to get back on the range with it

I honestly haven't figured out how to upload pictures to this site  :ugh:

I think you can only link to pictures, at least in some forums.

It's all good. I was actually in my LGS today and was looking at one. I was actually comparing it to the Walther PPQ M2. Very nice gun!

Gents,

 

I have one posted in the classifieds.  There are pics if you want to see them.

In all forums except Trading Post.

 

The VP9 by all reports is one helluva nice heater.

I can attest to what Jaymc is saying, bought it on a sweet deal from a LGS ($500 NIB) near Ft Campbell and I absolutely love it.

The ergonomics of it (swappable backstrap and sides of the grip), the night sights that come stock, the trigger and the out of the box accuracy are something to write home about for a pistol in that place range.

My wife didnt enjoy pistols until I picked this up, she fired it a few times and I have yet to get it back

I'm eagerly waiting to see a compact version!

I posted this elsewhere, but wanted you all to see it:

 

I may be making an error here, so you need to verify.

 

The only VP9 magazines I have seen in the past week are $200.  Bud's has P30  magazines for $37.17.  An internet search came across a site showing that those would work with a VP9.

If all of this is correct, this is a deal you don't want to miss.

P30 Mags do work just fine in a VP9.  I have 2.  

[TGO David]

P30 and VP9 mags are the same mag.  No difference in part number.  If you find P30 mags, you've found VP9 mags.  :)

[jaymc75]

I ordered one of these yesterday.. It adds an extra 5 rounds to the mag

I also ordered a set of the Trijicon HD night sights for it, the sights are fine on the gun but the luminescent glow doesn't last very long.. Have any of you that have the VP9 had the sights changed on them? I've heard it can be a bit tricky.

 

Thanks in advance.

If you've never installed them before they do require some fitting and some finesse. The rear sight is tapered towards the rear so you have to be careful not to twist the sight and damage it, been there done that.

They are great sights though, I've got both a yellow set and orange set and my eyes pick up the orange set better.

edit: will probably send the next set of for installation Edited March 28, 2015 by hlb14

 They work well...very solid...you will like it.

I installed Trijicon HD's on my VP9 with my MGW Sight Pro.  Easy peasy.
