HK VP9 SK SCS...FROM GOOD TO GREAT! (2024)

I bought this exact gun/optic combo for my wife this past Christmas. It is a fantastic shooter! My wife handles it very well. She shoots left handed and I am right handed. We can both shoot it just fine. The ambidextrous paddle mag release is very easy for both of us to use. I purchased a “We The People” polymer holster for it. That holster fits this gun and optic perfectly. The optic was a game changer for my 55 year old eyes! I love it. This is a great pistol/optic combination. Great review!

I’m looking at buying this exact gun. I have a Glock43x now but, as soon as I picked this up in my local gun store I fell in love. The grip on the HK’s in general is awesome. Thanks for the review.

I wish HK would offer the P30 series with an optic cut. I know there are a number of places I can send a slide to that offer the service, but I just like the idea of the OEM cut.

My P30sk is my preferred concealed carry gun. I like DA/SA with a manual safety because I carry AIWB and don't want a striker gun pointed at my crotch. A manual safety also provides that extra layer of safety I like. I know that thankfully my chances of ever having to use my gun are very low but my chances of being complacent and doing something stupid are ever present. A manual safety helps curb the negative consequences of complacency should I be stupid. I also like the long first DA trigger pull. In a defensive encounter I want that first round to be purposeful. Adrenaline makes it too easy to spaz off a round with a striker gun. The P30sk with a manual safety meets all my concealed carry requirements.

Good job on the video it makes me interested in checking one out

So happy this just got added to the roster in California this week.

I have a vp9 full size and absolutely love it!!! Looking to get my woman a different carry option and I think with the help of this review I may jist get this for her. Good stuff and thank you

Great review. Just picked this model, minus the optic. Shoots really well and quality is top notch. I do have the SCS on a Glock and agree it is a superior choice.

Love my p30 LEM and looking for its smaller summer weight counterpart. I just love the reset kit from Bruce Gray on my P30, which is hard to beat. HK just doesn't offer the P30 in a OR configuration.

Great gun and recoil is very good. It's a no brainer to purchase with red dot already installed. A better deal than buying separately. I'm a sig Sauer Guy but have this in my rotation Now.

Really nice review. I’m a big fan on quality and HK is really up there with Beretta, Sig and Walther. I really like the magazine release on the triggergard.

Nice pistol

They upped the capacity of the mags for these pistols so you get 12, 15 and 17rd options now. I own both the P30SK and the VP9SK but I prefer the former. I really like HK's hammer fired pistols, especially the LEM trigger variants. The achilles heel of the VP9SK is the weak recoil spring which with the slightest push of the slide, forces the gun out of battery. This isn't an issue with the P30SK or even the full size VP9.

Sub compacts are fun for range time. Even with micro class being as popular as they've become, i find myself leaning more towards Macro class for this very reason. Even my Mete MC9, my smallest 9mm is more robust than other micros while maintaining the micro class title. The slightly bigger size of a subcompact is just more confidence building but the slim width of a micro is sexy for carry. The niche between both worlds is ideal. Its why my p365 x Macro comp is perfect. size comparison is close to glock 19 but thin like the regular p365 x... If you find yourself leaning in the same direction... The p365 x Macro comp or TACOPS variant, hellcat pro, and glock 43xMOS will be your best bet availability wise.

Subbed just because of this review. I’m no longer buying Glocks after reviewing the HK

Wonder if this would fit in my hidden hybrid holster for a p2000

H&k is supposed to come out with sfp9cc micro this year . I don't know if I can wait lol

Is the vp9 and vp9sk the same size all around I know it’s longer and taller but but like would the sk fit inside a vp9 holster

What model versacarry holster is that

Does this require optics ready slide? I know the SCS does not require a plate, but unclear how it is attached.

Which do you preder the VP9sk or the USP 9 c?
Why?
✌️🇺🇸

I wish it was more selection of hammered fired pistols on the market. I too prefer DA/SA and have the P30, P01, and P07. Whats some other good options?

Do you think it's better than a Sig P365 ? Also, I've read that you can't get a vp9sk optic ready ?

Id like to know what happened to the HK sfp9cc.

I can’t find anywhere online that sells a stock recoil spring for my vp9sk… if anyone has any leads it’ll be greatly appreciated.

The subcompact is a dying segment. Micro-compacts have all but eliminated the need for a subcompact pistol with their incredible size to capacity ratio. For me it’s full-size to micro-compact in pistols.

U never show the right side of the gun. Why not?Is it bad luck?🤔

Don't you think it's a little late to introduce vp9sk now in 2024......? It's really thick, heavy, and most likely to be cast away by many larger frame micro#9s.....
