I sent the slide in to Springfield for the tritium Slant Pro sights and then I did the Powder River Precision trigger kit. Single stage, light take-up, 3.5# pull, smooth as hell, short reset. It's a beast and it is my carry weapon. Shoots anything as long as you don't limp-wrist it and has never had a FFF or jam otherwise.

nice! thats badass...

Can't go wrong with either! :tup:

Ordered my VP9 last night for $599, should be here Friday. If the VP9 is as good as the reports I am getting then at this price point there really is no reason to get a G19. Especially with all the erratic ejection patterns and BTF that Glock just cannot seem to remedy on the gen 3 and 4's

I will report back when I get some range time.

Great buy! :tup: Some dealers are gouging the price on the VP9. Found one guy on gunbroker.com selling one for $1000! :eek: The VP9 has the potential of giving many pistols a run for their money not just Glock. Time will tell!

BTW Pics and range report please!!! :icon17:

Will do.

BTW if any of yall are interested in a VP9 at $599, watch CDNN. They are supposed to be getting more in soon.

dude.. the VP9 is sexxxay... wow, very nice addition.

Saw this on Hornady's website today.
Hornady 135gr 9mm Critical Duty Recall

Small range report:

Unfortunately I have only been able to put 350 rounds through the gun due to work constraints (I hit the range during lunch hours). The fit and finish is on point which I am sure is typical of HK pistols. Ergonomics are some of the best I have ever seen specially with the ability to not only change out back straps but the sides of the grips. I am currently running a small back strap with a large palm side and med support side strap.
The block has a nice tight lock up and press checks are effortless with the VP9.

As for shooting I went from a G19 to the VP9 and would say the G19 still has a slightly softer perceived recoil but we are talking 9mm here so there is no issued on recoil management. I have found the gun to track back on target very well allowing quicker and more accurate follow up shots. The trigger is crisp but a soft crisp is that make sense, compared to a G19 trigger which has a crisp break but a violent crisp break that you can feel a good vibration from the spring. The reset is nice and short with a positive reset but there is still something I need to test on this reset. I did not notice the first time out but I wear gloves when I shoot and this second time out I thought the reset felt like it was sticking as if something sticky was spilled inside the trigger mech. When I got home I played with the VP9 and the reset and did not notice it so maybe it was nothing but it is something I will look for when I get back out. My friend who is interested in a VP9 also has a PPQ so we compared them and I would have to say the PPQ reset gives the PPQ trigger the edge. The breaks are very close, PPQ reset might be just a hair shorter but the PPQ I felt had a more positive set.

As for accuracy this gun will out shoot me at my current skill level. I had no problem at 7 yards shooting out a 3 inch diameter circle with 100 rounds all rounds in the circle. Shots fired at half to 3/4 of a second intervals so not quite double tap speed.

I am hoping to get this gun up to 1000 rounds next week so maybe by then I will have a definitive answer to the sticky reset I thought I felt at the range yesterday.

For you guys looking to get one they are back in stock at CDNN for $599

Anyone wanna tell me why the hell that is $116? :icon14: And they're all on backorder! :eek:

Kinda makes me want to get rid of my KAC upper. All I wanted to do was swap in my VLTOR MUR upper receiver to match the new billet US Autoweapons lower. For $116?!?!?! Anyone have one of these they'd let me "rent" for a day?

I guess when you manufacture a proprietary barrel nut wrench it gives you the ability to gouge your customers.

A lot of them have a proprietary barrel nut. In my opinion, if you reinvent the ******* wheel, you should include the removal/installation hardware at no cost. Not $116!!!
