Description

New Flat Dark Earth (FDE) models join Heckler & Koch’s acclaimed VP line-up. Using special colorants added to the frame during the molding process, the new VP9 (9mm) and VP40 (.40 S&W) FDE models have all of the highly regarded VP features – with the addition of RAL7008 colored frames. FDE is the European color matching system equivalent to FDE (Flat Dark Earth), a tan/brown color scheme increasingly used by military and security units. The frame’s vibrant color is indestructible and permanent and completely resistant to fading or chemical change.

In development for more than four years, the VP series debuted in 2014 and is Heckler & Koch’s latest handgun and the first striker fired HK since the renowned P7 series pistols were introduced in the 1980’s.

Experience gained by HK engineers with the P30 pistol had a direct influence on the design of the VP line, but the VP series breaks new ground with its integration of a unique striker firing system with an enhanced HK “precise pull” trigger. The net result is trigger quality unequaled in any production striker fired handgun.

HK pioneered the first striker-fired handguns, producing both the VP70 and P7 series, designs that impacted several models by HK competitors. But a superior trigger has eluded most striker fired pistol designs.

The VP trigger surpasses those found on competitors. It has a short, light take-up with a solid, single action type break followed by a short positive reset. The VP uses HK’s ergonomic handgun grip design that includes three changeable back straps and six side panels – accommodating all hand sizes.

Molded finger grooves in the front of the pistol’s grip also instinctively position an operator’s hand for optimal shooting. Only HK handguns have such a customized grip.

Although influenced by other HK models, the VP has all the hallmarks of the latest, state-of-the-art handgun. All controls are completely ambidextrous. Slide releases are present on both sides of the frame and the magazine release can be easily activated by left or right handed shooters.

A unique VP feature is HK’s patented charging supports – simple components that are mounted on each side of the rear of the slide and provide better gripping leverage for racking the slide rearward. The charging supports speed reloading and make operating VP pistols easier for shooters with reduced hand strength.

The VP pistols use the proven P30 steel magazine (15 round for 9mm, 13 round for .40 S&W; and 10 round capacity where required by law).

The VP series has an extended Picatinny MIL-STD 1913 rail molded into its polymer frame for mounting lights and accessories. The rail has been tested and certified to handle mounted accessories up to 5.6 ounces.

The VP’s proprietary captive flat recoil spring helps reduce the recoil forces effecting the operator and the handgun, improving shooter control during rapid firing and prolonging component service life.

HK’s famous cold hammer forged barrel – made from cannon grade steel – ensures long service life. Similar HK barrels on P30 models have fired more than 90,000 rounds in endurance tests in 2010. The polygonal bore profile, with no traditional lands-and-grooves rifling, contributes to longer service life as well as a slight increase in muzzle velocity.

The VP’s machined steel slide is protected from corrosion and wear by HK’s hostile environment (black) finish and all metal components, including springs and pins have superior metallurgy.

VP pistols are made in Heckler & Koch’s Oberndorff factory in southwest Germany and are well-suited for civilian sport shooting, security, military, and law enforcement use.

Covered by Heckler & Koch’s limited lifetime warranty, the HK VP series are a solid design engineered with the famous long-term durability that make HK products especially cost-effective when subjected to total life cycle cost analysis. And the VP is remarkably value priced.Name : Vp40 40sw Fde 4.1 13+1 NsDesc : 3 Backstraps|2 Lat Grip PlatesModel : VP40Model # : 700040FDELE-A5Manufacturer : Heckler and Koch (HK USA)Caliber : 40 S&WType : Semi-Auto PistolAction : Double Action OnlyBarrel : 4.1″Capacity : 13+1Finish : Flat Dark Earth (FDE)Length : 7.34″Sights : Tritium Night SightsMagazine : 3 / 15 rd.Weight : 26.56 oz.
