H&K VP9-- the "peoples pistol"..

I picked one of these up recently --have to say I agree with most of what is said in this article..very easy to shoot accurately, great factory trigger, and good sights ..much better than the Glocks I have purchased..

Glock may be the top seller at this point, but think they have erroneously sat on their laurels long enough others have caught up and passed them frankly for a handgun of this type..IMHO

H&K has changed the mag release to a "button" for the American markets..

https://www.ssusa.org/articles/2018/10/22/new-heckler-koch-vp9-b-9mm/

Heckler & Koch has announced a new model in the VP9 pistol line chambered in 9mm. The VP9-B (MSRP: $719, hk-usa.com) is a striker-fired handgun that uses the same magazines as other VP9 pistols.

A new option is the reversible push button magazine release, another is the ambidextrous paddle mag release. One or the other must be chosen at time of purchase.

The grip frame is highly adaptable, allowing exchange of the three included backstraps and the six grip panels. There are 27 different combinations available, allowing for a high degree of customization.

Barrel length is 4.09 inches. Polygonal barrel profile, six grooves. The standard pull of the VP trigger is 5.4 pounds.

Total overall length of the VP9-B is 7.34 inches. Weight, sans magazine, is 26.56 ounces.

The VP9-B 9mm is available in two different SKUs, one with two 15-round magazines, the other with two 10-round magazines.

I like HK's guns. My favourite HK pistol is the P7M13.

Agreed--they are a nice shooting handgun.. very accurate and for my hands, feel and fit much better than the Glock.. I have a few of both so I can say that..
