[@billleon822]

Over the years, I have begged so many people to show close-ups of various procedures under good lighting and to slow down and take their time- to create instructional videos just like this one! 1000 thank yous… Liked and subscribed…

Love how you used the slide to hold the firing pin to remove the spring and sleeve. Genius level

In case anyone wants to know, your VP9 was made in 2014 in Germany. DE means Germany. BE is 2014. A=0 B=1 C=2 D=3 E=4 Thanks for the video. Your approach and camera angles are perfect.

Excellent video...very clear and thorough. Gave me the confidence to change the spring and support tube of the firing pin. Love to see more videos from Harry.

[@SomeConch357]

actually a big help, helped me swap out the plastic guide for a nice metal one that should help with longevity, would love to see a trigger removal/ swap at some point but ik its been 3 years since this upload XD

[@UBRArsenal]

I’m glad the video helped. KZbin demonized the other two trigger videos I made so I stopped making them. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. Have a great day.

[@mike4164]

I agree with the other comments. The steps were explained very well and the camera work was well lit so you can clearly see what was going on.

Thank you. The clip might've been a bit shorter and more to the point but I appreciate it nonetheless that you've shown how to do it as the manual does not cover it. After 3,5k rounds it can't hurt to clean there too.

[@thepatriotsrock2]

You got the Recoil Spring w the red paint. HK has since released a newer spring because the one you have does not like some ammo.That spring is a lil weaker.

[@UBRArsenal]

I'll have to call H&K to see if they can send out the newer spring. Thanks for the heads-up. Thanks for watching and leaving a great comment. Don't forget to subscribe. :)

Excellent instruction. Now if I could only find a tutorial to safely remove the locking block pin without destroying the polymer frame. Its in there reaaaaaaaal f-ing tight. And it can only be pressed out from the interior of the frame.

[@UBRArsenal]

Hi _, I'm glad you liked the video and it was helpful. If I ever figure out an easy way to remove that pin, I'll be sure to post a video. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. Have a great day.

[@__-pl3jg]

@@UBRArsenal - Thanks, I finally got it. In the manuals exploded diagram its part #9 (Stop Bolt for trigger). It turns out the reason I couldnt get it out was because I had already removed the "Locking Block dowel pin" (#15) and the right side slide release (#19). With those 2 cross members removed the polymer frame flexed too much so I couldnt exert enough pressure to pop out the Stop Bolt. The trick is to remove the Stop Bolt FIRST before removing any roll pins. Once I reinserted the other stuff it stiffened up the frame and I was able to drift the Stop Bolt out using a flat head screwdriver.

[@UBRArsenal]

@@__-pl3jg I'm glad you were able to figure it out. Also thanks for taking the time to give me an update. Have a great day.

[@stubenwurm]

great video, can you please do such a video for changing the trigger spring parts, available from H&K for the "match" variant of the vp/sfp9?

[@UBRArsenal]

Thanks, I'm glad you liked the video. I wish I could make a trigger upgrade video but KZbin would demonetize any video like that. I'm not able to post videos that change the stock internals to improve performance. Thanks for watching. Have a great day. 👍🏼

[@jasonsavill3444]

Looks easy, but question though. I have H&K VP40, is removing and reinstalling the firing pin on that the same process?

[@UBRArsenal]

Hey Jason, from my knowledge it should have the same firing pin setup. So it should have the same process. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. Have a great night.

[@danc7904]

Excellant walkthrough, but now I have no reason not to clean my firing pin.

[@UBRArsenal]

Thanks, I'm glad you liked the video. Good luck cleaning your firing pin. 👍🏼

[@sonofTMHYAH]

Hey Harry! 👋🏾 Just stopping by to check on your channel seeing as tho I haven’t received any notifications. I see that you have uploaded so I’ll catch up with the new ones. BTW, while I’m at it, I figured I’d start with a closer look of the VP9...such a beautiful pistol. The spring cups on the H&K seems a bit easier than that of the Glock. What do you think??

[@UBRArsenal]

Hey! I'm glad you stopped by to check out my new videos. I would agree the VP9 is an awesome looking pistol. I would say to date the VP9 has the hardest spring cups to remove because the spring is slippery and the spring tension is really high. So I think that's what makes it the hardest to service. Thanks again for stopping bye. It's always good to hear from you.

[@aslanbosnakoglu8240]

is that back plate steel?

[@UBRArsenal]

Hi Aslan, no the back plate is polymer. Have a great day! Thanks for watching.

[@thepatriotsrock2]

How did you make out with HK & your SPRING situation ?

[@UBRArsenal]

I haven’t been able to reach anyone today so I’m going to call them back tomorrow and see what they say. I’ll let you know how I make out.

[@thepatriotsrock2]

@@UBRArsenal ok they will ask for guns serial # to confirm what Spring is the gun by that, like they did to me.

​@@thepatriotsrock2 Ok cool, it doesn’t matter how long I owned it for?

[@thepatriotsrock2]

@@UBRArsenal they mite charge you & may not. I had the correct upgraded spring. When I seen the RED Spring in videos I had to find out the reason. That's how I passed it on to you.

[@johnkosheluk1041]

Why would you take the pin out

[@UBRArsenal]

Hi John, there are a few reasons. If your firing pin breaks or if you get oil in the striker assembly area, just to name a few. Basically it’s for repair or maintenance. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. Have a great day. 👍🏼🤜🤛

[@GHicks-lu5tu]

Definitely NOT so simple with the VP .40 strong string with less tolerance.

[@UBRArsenal]

Hi Gerry, yup, the slide on the VP40 for sure will be harder to lock back. Keep in mind it should get easier the more you shoot it. Thanks for watching.

[@larrymor]

I'm unclear as to why you want to disassemble the firing pin....

[@UBRArsenal]

One reason would be if you had to replace one of the components for your striker assembly.
