I had worked for HK in Columbus, Ga for a time. And I am here to tell you this pistol in my opinion is more ergonomic than any Glock Gen 1-5 pistol. And very accurate. Great pistol!

In all fairness, the new glock performance trigger is pretty damn nice. I guess you could argue that an upgraded VP9 or PPQ/PDP trigger still destroys it, which would be correct.

Yes, but unless you want to send it to a gunsmith for hundreds of dollars, you're gonna have to go with an aftermarket trigger. I personally prefer the lazy wolf combined with HKparts match sear spring (stock TRS). You get a 3.5lb pull with similar takeup but a MUCH shorter and crisper break as well as a shorter reset. It's amazing.

@@asdfghjk2933 - Thanks. I ended up going with the MCarbo kit which replaces the return spring and sear spring. It lowered the poundage and still has the factory trigger pull which is fairly crisp compared to everything else I've used (Glocks, Springfield Armory Hellcat, M&P, etc). One of these days I'll have to try out the Lazy Wolf trigger replacement to see how much better it is. I wish more people would make accessories for HK pistols like they do for Glocks. That HK VP9 is sooooo much better in every way than any other pistol I've ever owned. Straight out of the box it's ready to go. With Glock you've got to adjust all kinds of stuff before it's acceptable.

@@__-pl3jg Very nice, I think the Mcarbo spring kit uses pretty much the exact same parts as the HKparts version. I agree, the VP9 is a fantastic pistol. My favorite by far. I wouldn't trade it for any other striker pistol out there. The stock VP9 trigger especially with the springs you have is amazing but, It's soooooo worth the upgrade. I have a short on my channel showing the break and reset of the lazy wolf trigger if you're curious.
