The VP9A1 is an updated version of the H&K's legendary VP9 series of striker-fired handgun. The handgun combines the beloved features of the original VP9 with updated grip panels, improved ambidextrous controls, and an enhanced trigger with a nickel-teflon coating for a smoother pull and cleaner break. The VP9A1 also includes a flared magwell for faster reloads along with additional front and rear maritime serrations to allow for easier handling under extreme conditions. The F variant is the full-sized model that sports a longer barrel and grip for improved handling and reduced recoil.
