Description
The VP Series is Heckler & Koch’s first striker-fired HK since the P7
series pistols introduced in the 1980s. It is well-suited for civilian
sport shooting, security, military, and law enforcement use. The VPSeries
integrates a striker firing system with an enhanced, HK “light pull”
trigger. HK’s cold hammer-forged barrel made from cannon grade steel
ensures long service life, as does the polygonal bore profile which also
provides a slight increase in muzzle velocity. The VP uses HK’s ergonomic
handgun grip design that includes three changeable backstraps and six side
panels, accommodating all hand sizes. Molded finger grooves in the pistol’s
grip position an operator’s hand for optimal shooting. An extended
Picatinny MIL-STD-1913 rail molded into its polymer frame for mounting
lights and accessories. All controls are completely ambidextrous. Slide
releases are present on both sides of the frame, and the paddle-style
magazine release can be easily activated by left- or right-handed shooters.
A unique VP feature is HK’s patented rear-mounted charging supports on each
side of the slide provide better gripping leverage for racking the slide
rearward. The machined steel slide is protected from corrosion and wear by
HK’s hostile environment finish and all metal components, including springs
and pins have superior metallurgy. VP pistols use proven HK P30 steel
magazines.
P Tactical models feature a longer and slightly heavier threaded barrel,
come equipped with night sights, and include three (3) magazines.Action :Double
