H&K VP9 FEATURES
The wait is over, after more than four years in development the VP9 is Heckler & Koch’s latest handgun and is a return for HK’s roots in the striker fired arena. The VP9 shares similar aesthetics with the P30, which has a direct influence on the design. However HK engineers we dissatisfied with current striker fired technology, and in particular the triggers. The VP9 trigger has a consistent pre-travel pull with a positive crisp break, while the trigger reset is short and fast making follow up shots a breeze. The VP9 is also sports a MIL-STD-1913 picatinny rail as well as HK’s hostile environment finish. This VP9-B features a more American style push button magazine release.
