Heckler & Koch VP9 9mm Luger Striker-Fired Pistol, Black, 4 in. Barrel, 15+1 rd
The HK VP9 is the company’s first modern striker-fired service pistol, introduced in 2014 and quickly adopted by several European police forces. This full-size 9 mm model features a cold-hammer-forged polygonal barrel rated for +P ammunition, fully ambidextrous controls, and HK’s 27-configuration grip system. Backed by HK’s German engineering and a rugged Hostile Environment nitride finish, this VP9 offers reliable performance in a highly adaptable platform.

WHAT’S INCLUDED
- 2 × 15-round HK factory steel magazines marked “Made in Germany”

The VP9’s 4.09-inch cold-hammer-forged barrel delivers long service life and tight tolerances, while its polygonal rifling aids velocity and simplifies cleaning.
Ambidextrous slide stops and HK’s paddle-style magazine release let right- or left-handed shooters run the pistol without modifications. Rear wing-type charging supports provide extra leverage for confident slide manipulation, even with gloves.
The grip uses three interchangeable backstraps and six side panels, allowing 27 unique combinations to fine-tune fit. A low bore axis and carefully radiused trigger guard contribute to controllable recoil and consistent sight return.
Enhanced safety features include a trigger safety blade, a loaded chamber indicator, and a rear striker status indicator—all designed to keep the shooter informed without adding manual levers.
Fieldstripping requires no trigger press; simply lock the slide back, rotate the takedown lever, and release. This straightforward procedure supports safe maintenance and encourages routine cleaning.
