Product Description
Presentation
Heckler & Koch VP9 has been in development for more than four years before its release in June 2014. It was initially designed at the request of the Bavarian State Police to replace the HP P7. The VP in the name refers to Volkpistole, which translates to "people's pistol," and the 9 denotes the 9mm caliber designation.
Exterior of the replica
Umarex does a good job of copying the real firearm, but the operating principle is different. The replica does not feature recoil, although the slide can be pulled back to allow for cocking the hammer. The safety is located on the right side. The slide is made of metal while the lower part of the replica is made of ABS plastic, and there is a covered rail at the front of the pistol where tactical accessories such as lasers or flashlights can be mounted. At the back of the slide, there is a hole equipped with an indicator that shows when the replica is cocked.
Interior of the replica
The internal mechanism of the replica is made of plastic and metal and operates with manual action. Cocking the hammer and loading BBs is done strictly by pulling the slide back to the locked position. The replica does not feature an adjustable hop-up.
