Teufelshund Tactical Heckler and Koch P7 Series Armorer & Operator Review

[@greghowardbell]

Please save copies of this somewhere just in case people decide this video is somehow not KZbin material. This is amazing.

[@gtcdxb]

Hi all, i used to carry a P7 1st generation for many years in Germany, a perfect carry gun, accurate and ready whenever you need it.... An interesting aspect of the Design was the designer Named Mr. Waeldele, which used to design sewing machines before he was hired by H&K , never designed a Firearm before. I have met him on the occasion of a meeting in the HK factory since we were intend to use the delayed blowback technology on one of our guns as well... There was no objection by HK... BTW, i am Joe Peters, the founder of the Peters Stahl Weapon factory, we used to build the Multicaliber pistols based on the 1911 frame capable to fire up to 8 different calibers by just cahnging barrel and magazine.... We produced the Springfield Armory OMEGA for SA in Germany in 10mm Auto caliber....

[@byronsimpson8545]

I'm only 1/3 of the way through the video as I type this comment, but I am amazed at the comprehensiveness in your explanation of the pistol's inner workings and function. Truly outstanding. Looking forward to watching more of this.

[@teufelshundtactical]

[@johnhall9228]

Outstanding James. I’m a serious P7 aficionado and I definitely learned a few things i didn’t know after watching. So very well done.

[@thedumbguncollector5546]

I have returned to declare this the greatest video on the gun Internet

[@garbinator09]

At 65 years, underdoing medical treatment over two years, some weeks ago I dug out my P7M13 Nickle from the safe having no idea this pistol had such value. So many thoughts running through my mind. At this juncture, I have much to think about after watching the entire video. At the very least I would like to ship my HK to you to have it professionally gone through, as it has less than 500 ads throught it. Mags have never been stored with rounds as it was never my primary defense weapon during my active service days long past. Stored, taken out to gawk at it, showed it off one or two times, bout it. Living in the great Mojave Desert, temps get seriously high here. The overheating quickly made my hands/grip slippery due to sweat. Lack of stippling made the handgun horrible to maintain on target doing tactical handgun drills. I sat it aside, an, the years went by. So did my career leading to burn-out (20). Never having any professional instruction in the use of HK probably contributed much as our Dept. Colt .45 was the cats meow for its time. Jeff Cooper fame. 80hrs classroom plus range time on the cities dime. 40hrs alone dry firing, draw stroke from work belt. Tons of liquid bandaid used. Sorry- Reminising I hope God and I can get well so I can decide where I shall go if I can shoot again, or, have to sell. I’ve thought maybe a camera might be all I need to shoot, especially these days I live… California. 10-7

[@teufelshundtactical]

It’s a keeper for sure. I’ll be happy to service it for you and if you decide to sell it, I also offer consignment services.

There is no way this guy will tell me more than Gun Jesus (Ian from Forgotten Weapons) hasn’t already told me. I’ll just start the video and rip it apart in the comments. Then after watching the whole video (beginning to end with a bunch of rewinding parts), I feel dumb. Sorry for even questioning your qualifications with the P7 Series handgun. I may get in contact with you to service mine. Great video. You truly are the King of the HK P7’s.

Well it took me 3 sessions to finally get to the end of this video but it was well worth it. I don't need to say that this is best reference video on the P7 as that is obvious. I say it, because it deserves it. Too bad, I'm not in a position to buy one of these fine tools. But the part of me that is absolutely intrigued by handgun design, definitely learned a lot of minutia.

[@scratchsescape1978]

Boy am I'm glad I stumbled onto this video! I was stationed just outside of Stuttgart for almost six years and a couple of months before I left early 1984 I bought a P7. I got it at the Patch Barracks recreation center sporting goods shop and the dollar was very strong at that time so I only paid a few hundred bucks for the thing. Mine has the protruding magazine heel release serial number 525xx and it was proofed 03/83. A few years ago I added NIL grips. Plan on watching this video many times. GREAT JOB!

[@teufelshundtactical]

Scratch's ESCAPE Glad you enjoyed it and great back story. Check out the channel for many other H&K videos.

[@vaughanellis7866]

If I were to go back to America I'd use a P7 as an everyday carry if I could find one especially the M13 variant that who give 13 rounds on board instead of the basic 8, I've found the P7 to feel like each one is a custom build even though each one came off a production line with the trigger feeling smooth and you'd swear that it had been worked on.

[@jamescampbell4334]

Thanks for making this awesome vid. Picked up a used M13 (KC) shortly before Thanksgiving of 2018 (came with 4 mags). Shot it and was really impressed. Bought a spotless NIB M13 (KB) shortly before Christmas that same year (also came with 4 new mags). My sons and range buddies all enjoy shooting my M13. I installed LDA target sights and Nill target grips on this range M13.

[@LazyEngineer1]

Amazing video! This is the one, if you are interested in the P7, and want a 3 hour training session on what it is and how to really run one, this is the place to start. Love it! Great work. One technical comment (that's academic), on the P7M7, .45 ACP, it was mentioned that the unit has a hydraulic recoil system, like the K3 does. And stated that was due to the higher pressure of the .45 ACP round. I assume that's in error, since .45 ACP is much lower pressure than 9mm, yes?

[@teufelshundtactical]

Many thanks. Yes. And you’ll find much more information on H&K firearms on the channel.

Back in the 90s I had a factory nickel plated M8 and it was super flakey. So I decided I wanted to get it hard chromed. I knew a lot about the gun so I was concerned that it might be hard to find someone who knew what they were doing. I called this outfit called Rebel refinishing and asked him how he would deal with the gas port/cylinder. He said "I GOT A BRUSH." I hung up and called another outfit (back then you just called everyone you found in the "shotgun news." Finally I found a guy who new what he was doing . It was scary!

[@thorfischer-olsen6504]

For making this video: You are awesome! And I did learn a thing or two about my M13 from your fantastic video. My M13 has a rubber buffer of sorts behind the trigger. I didn't see it on any of your weapons so I guess it is a mod that had been added sometime after it left the factory. By the way - it is impressive how clean you keep your weapons.

[@teufelshundtactical]

Many thanks. You are correct that the rubber buffer you mentioned is not a “factory” product.

[@ryanmontie4569]

Great video. Took forever to watch the whole thing, but still great content. Picked up an old p7 a few years ago and have shot it only a few times. The lack of parts is one of the reasons it mostly sits. Has anyone explored the idea of 3d printing replacement parts for these? Or would the abs not hold up to the stress? Also, you mention reloads, and not trying it unless you know what you're doing. Do you reload your own ammo, and if so do you have a round cooked up that you like for your p7?

[@teufelshundtactical]

Glad you enjoyed the video. If you can believe it, I actually had to cut it short, as I ran out of available storage space. I still have most parts, but yes, as I continue servicing the pistols, at some point they will dwindle down. I only shoot quality, factory ammunition, with Speer Lawman 115 TMJ being my preference.

[@jamescraven7517]

James, I have a P7 imported through HKI-Trussville AL. From watching your video, it appears to be a Police Trade in as per the grips (slight thumb swell). I can't seem to find the year of manufacture information as it doesn't have a date code that I can find anywhere on the pistol. It's marked with the serial#363XX to the right of that is a boxed (Possible BWB Marking) symbol with a 415 and to the right of that an "NDS" circled, but nothing else on that side of the slide. The stampings are somewhat crude under very high magnification. Would you have any idea of the year or any other possible information?

[@teufelshundtactical]

Take a photo of both sides and send it to me.

On a side note... What is the technical reason why many extractors turn orange with time? I understand it has to do with the finish or heat treating but just to this part?

[@elhansen]

Outstanding video. I have a PSP and a K3 I picked up on consignment at a small gun store a couple of years ago. I'm having issues with the PSP cocking, so I intend to review the internal mechanisms sections of the video several times. I probably won't be able to repair it myself, but I hope to be able to narrow down the issue.

[@gemor2843]

Comment from Germany on the P7: Based on my own experience, I can say that the P7 is one of the most unsafe pistols ever designed because it will fire if you accidentally cock it with the grip cocking while the trigger is pulled. This has happened repeatedly in Germany while using it in police service, even with a fatal outcome. My own experience happened in 1987. I shot a heavy boar at night on a meadow strip between a corn field and the forest, which immediately collapsed. After the shot I went to the wild boar lying quietly 30m away. Convinced that the boar was dead, I walked to the edge of the forest 5m away and leaned my rifle against a tree to have both hands free to gut the boar and then went back to the boar. When I was about 1.5m away, the boar suddenly and unexpectedly tried to get up again. I immediately grabbed my P7 in my pocket for the finishing shot. In the excitement, however, I somehow got stuck with the gun and grabbed it tighter. As soon as the pistol came out of the pocket, a bullet struck the ground two inches from the tip of my right foot. Despite my shock, I was able to finally kill the almost completely standing wild boar with a second shot in the head. What has happened: Due to the firmer grip, I had cocked the P7 unnoticed and then pulled the trigger when the pistol was free. Or I may have already pulled the trigger while pulling the pistol forcefully and cocked the pistol when it came free. But that doesn't matter for this unwanted shot in front of my foot, because it is inherent in the system of the P7 that you can accidentally cock the P7 if you grip it tightly or fire it if you cock it with the trigger accidentally pulled. Now one could criticize that I didn't carry the P7 in a holster, but the whole incident would not have happened at all with a DA/SA pistol, even if carried in a pants pocket. Just a week after the incident, I traded this insecure P7 towards the purchase of a new DA/SA pistol.

I'm still 1/6th of the way in this amazing video, but around 30:00 when you describe the operation of sear bar and trigger, after the first shot, it's not clear to me how the trigger resets. Is there an interaction between slide and part of the sear bar that raises the latter, keeping the firing pin backward and pushing the trigger forward? The video shows the bar already up and hypothetically catching on the firing pin, but the missing link is what brought back the sear bar, resetting the trigger. Sorry for the nit-picking, but there's so much detail in the video that I thought it's worth asking. (Apologies if it's explained further in the video, I'm watching it bit by bit, trying to focus on each piece of info)

OK. Seen the disconnector function at about 59:00. This clears the doubt: the trigger is disconnected under recoil allowing the sear bar to raise on its spring force and the trigger can't release the firing pin until the trigger finger allows it to reset. I just had to be patient.

Who carries spare barrels for this pistol? ?

[@teufelshundtactical]

Me.

[@cgdeery]

@@teufelshundtactical ..oh. do you ship to UK? Guy needs one after putting a bulge in his. .request would be through his firearm dealer.

[@teufelshundtactical]

@@cgdeery No. And if you watch my P7M8 repair video, you’ll see that having a replacement barrel is nothing if you don’t have the barrel and drill press needed for installation.

[@thorfischer-olsen6504]

I hear you. I had to replace the barrel (worn - bullets started flying sideways all over the range). The smith opted to cut down and mount a schultz larsen rifle barrel in mine. A hammer forged replacement barrel wasn't available. So now, I'm suddenly without flutes and the gas retard setup. Luckily it still operates likes a charm.

Magnum always used a 1911.

Over three hours of everything you could ever want to know on the P7 series and that's your takeaway :)

[@Mr._1987]

If HK made a 10mm P7 it would be my (If not the) ultimate carry pistol.
