Melgamatic 66 Posted January 9, 2015 I was at Gun For Hire waiting for NICS to pickup a gun, and rented an H&K VP9 to pass the time. I shot about 150 rounds, and the handgun is fantastic! Feels great in my hands, ergonomics just like my H&K HK45, and I shot it very well. 29 days until I get another handgun, and it's going to be a VP9!

RecessedFilter 222 Posted January 9, 2015 I want to shoot one but I know once I do, I'll end up having to buy a few permits! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
45Doll 5,848 Posted January 9, 2015 I'm glad to hear that. I have an LE version sitting in my FFL's safe and I'm waiting on permits. I haven't shot it yet, but it does fit my hands well too as you describe. And I didn't make any adjustments with the different strap setups. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Melgamatic 66 Posted January 9, 2015 no clue they even had one ill have to rent it next time It's not on their rental PDF menu yet. I had wanted to rent one, but figured I'd rent something else (PPQ?). Then, while filling out paperwork I saw it on the wall! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Golf battery 1,223 Posted January 9, 2015 This saturday will be my first idpa shoot with the vp9. Ill see how it goes. I usually use a beretta 92 a 1. Big difference. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
locochinoloco 0 Posted January 9, 2015 I own a VP9 LE, PPQ M2 and M&P9c with aluminum Apex trigger and action enhancement kit. In my opinion, the Apex had the best trigger pull and reset. It better be, because its an additional $160! The PPQ has a nicer stock trigger than the VP9. But, I like the grip on the VP9 better than PPQ and M&P9c. And my VP9 shoots 5-6" to the left at 25 yds from factory. I just bought a sight-pusher to fix the issue. Knowing then what I know now, not sure if I would buy the VP9 again. Just my two cents.

Lecky 1 Posted January 9, 2015 I was thinking about using my last permit for the vp9 but I felt it was to close to the walther ppq m2 I already have, so I went with the CZ 75 B/D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lunker 274 Posted January 9, 2015 I was thinking about using my last permit for the vp9 but I felt it was to close to the walther ppq m2 I already have, so I went with the CZ 75 B/D I was just at the local gun shop today and asked to check out the VP9 yet again. The grip is really close to the P30, which I like. I feel like the asymmetrical slide release controls are too far recessed for me to easily activate. I could really use a bigger ledge on them, at least on the right hand side (I am a lefty). The P30 has a very generous ledge on its symmetrical slide release levers, and that makes it easy to activate. I know some folks don't like how long they are because they accidentally hit it with a high thumbs grip. It doesn't bother me though. For me, the VP9's marginally better trigger over the P30 Light LEM doesn't make this gun a "must have". If I didn't own either, I would still choose the P30 (especially with the $200 rebate).
