The VP9A1 K configuration delivers compact dimensions with full ambidextrous operation. Paddle-style magazine releases and slide stop levers are mirrored on both sides, and the interchangeable side panels and backstraps allow the grip to be tailored to the shooter.
The 4.09 in barrel is cold hammer-forged with polygonal rifling and a 1:9.8 in twist. This barrel construction is known for durability and a smooth bore surface, and this example presents a clean, mirror finish as noted in the condition details.
The slide includes forward and rear cocking serrations and an optics-ready cut with a cover plate; adapter plates are sold separately. HK’s hostile environment (carbon-nitride) finish is applied to the slide, and a heavy-duty extractor doubles as a loaded-chamber indicator.
