Yeah it's alright, though. I'm just going to put it on the Christmas list.

I got a feeling she will. The recoil is on par or less than an AR-15. Since it is a long stroke piston gun the recoil will feel different. The recoil with the 9mm conversion is laughable. I've shoot 22lr rifles with more kick.

Also, in dry firing, the trigger seems okay. A little stiff but not as bad as I have heard. I need to actually shoot it before forming an opinion, though.

yeah but logic took hold. i can't deny the benefit of a 9mm forever. and this fills the gap in the home defense line. so i'm good with it. now, if they made this in 45, then yes, i would have taken that one. but this will work just fine. |

Nice buy though, welcome to the HK family! ![]() There is a reason I have 6 HKs. ![]() I like the P30's in general but HK messed up with that slide mounted decocker. I prefer the decocker to be apart of the safety like all the rest of HK pistol family. Also since the decocker is on the slide you can't swap out the triggers like you can with the USP, P200, HK45, and the non-slide mounted decocker variants of the P30. That is one of the reasons I want a P30L V1. The other reason is that the V1 has the LEM light trigger like what I have installed in my HK45s

I didn't want another XDwhatever. I already had one. Just wouldn't be on par with what i already have in the M. And I've always wanted an HK. This one was tucked back in a darker corner of the case and you really couldn't make out what it was. Kind of like an omen. I love the compactness of it and the action on the slide. The decocker was a big plus for me. I don't give a **** that it is on the back of the slide. From your perspective they screwed up but I think it was a smart decision. And I like that it doesn't have a safety lever. That makes it quicker for me to operate and no mishandling possibilities between the slide release and safety like i've experienced on other pistols. These polymers were designed for speed and efficiency. Glad they stuck to that concept. |

For compactness I'm more than fine with my Kahr CM9 and Glock 26!

This video is entertaining. I can't imagine anyone doing the things done to this particular VP9, but I always enjoy when they do torture tests on any firearm just to see what it can and can not withstand.

Any of you Tavor guys shoot Wolf or TulAmmo without any issues? Aside from the need for deep cleaning, of course.
Everything good is gone, so I think I need to stock up on some cheap **** for plinking!
