The VP9 9mm Optics Ready 3x17rd Night Sights Pistol (81000484) is Heckler & Koch's latest, and most successful pistol design. We are pleased to announce that H&K VP 9 Pistols will be shipped with the following upgrades: 17-round magazines will replace previous 15-round versions; sight configuration, which includes a high-visibility front sight and a "clean" black serrated rear; optional optics-ready cut with cap.
Of course, the updated models retain all the existing features of the VP that have quickly made the VP series a class leader in ergonomics and trigger performance.
In any firearm, especially a handgun, the many "touchpoints" between the shooter and the firearm are critical to consistent, repeatable, performance. The touchpoints HK's 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 HK "light pull" trigger. The net result is a pistol with custom-fit ergonomics with trigger quality unequaled in any production striker fired handgun.
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 VP.
Best-in-class trigger - The VP 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.
