Thanks for the update. And having been to SHOT Show several times, I know it’s not THAT bright on the show floor (although your eyes do get used to it), so the fact that the Holosun is charging under INDOOR lights is great news.
Nice they figured out how to update the SK’s mag and it only took 3 years from when they figured out the same thing on the full size gun’s mag… HK continues to innovate at a snail’s pace
I have an SCS on my G19, gotta say I love the compact height of it. Normal height sights instead of the oversized suppressor sights. So much better than needing a plate.
@@dkmillerii Had my P30L LEM back for about 2 months or so now. LTT gunwork is the best money spent, all of my P30s and 92s have been or are being touched by the LTT team.
You had me right up to you meantioned Chinese sight. I'm an American. After covid 19 and parts problems parked off our coast I don't do anything Chinese. I carry the original vp9sk and love it. Not upgrading. But will dabble the 15 rd mag though.
Bill D. shot this exact gun/setup when I got the chance to train with him at @TheCompleteCombatant "The Quest" in 2022. The gun ran flawlessly, and Bill was a pretty spicy shooter himself!
I had the privilege of sharing the line with him in Chuck Haggard's small pistols class at the ASP National Conference in 2022. Such a nice guy! Knows his stuff, for sure! -SR
Will be ordering some new mags now. Next they need to up the usp compact +2 rounds. Also surprised HK would slum it w holosun and not go aimpoint acro. But I guess it makes sense for the vp series.
So avideo from 5 years ago has john saying he could not get one of these and just now this civilan version came out i aussume makes me wonder what the difference is
Thanks for the video. Looks like a nice package, but it also looks like HK is trying to "out-Glock" Glock. Coming out with a "new" product that really is not new.
When will it be on your website? I’m interested but I can’t exactly look for it at my dealer until I can actually see the final product name. When I look on the website I see subcompact but not compact so are you making a mistake or is just not listed? For once in my life I’d like a chance to try something early instead something having to be out for months before I can look at it. I’m new to shooting & did both handgun safety & CCW training with a loaner VP9 which I really liked but was too big for conceal for me so I ended up getting Shield Plus & got a green holosun for it recently.
@@ASPextra thanks for your quick response. That’s too bad, perhaps that will be a future option. Not a fan of the paddle. I do know how to use them, but as my primary EDC is a 1911,I prefer not to learn both. In my experience stuff goes sideways when it hits the fan.
I find it interesting that all these top tier manufacturers are going with holosun now. Talking to the gunsmith at my local range he won't touch these with a 10 foot pole, seen them fail all the time. I catch a lot of crap from him for using this "Chinese garbage" as he calls it lol. Honestly though I own two holosuns and they've been great ill probably buy this because I love HK. Nice to see some new stuff from them this year!
It's luck of the draw I guess. I've seen some holosuns fail with minimal use and seen some people beat the crap out of other holosuns and they held up just fine.
@@ASPextra he kind of is. I don't give them any gunsmithing business I just like to use their indoor range when they run classes there lol. For real though I have a 512c on my AR it's got a couple thousand rounds on that optic and it's been flawless for me. Of course he likes to talk about what worked in Iraq for him and what didn't, they only bet their lives on trijicon at the time so I'll take his word for what it is, he can't stand the fact that my lower receiver is from PSA either 🤣.
I have seven Holosuns and two of the 507k’s have failed on me. Brightness up button failed on both a coupe of months apart. They fixed both quickly but one of them failed again last week.
I like HK but a dedicated slide cut for one particular optic seems like a bad idea from a generally pricey company. Just because holosun is the flavor of the month doesn't mean that everyone likes it or that holosun will keep the popularity/leading edge. As is this doesn't seem to have the ability to change with better technology in the future without using a "plate-on-a-plate" for the next gen optics or an expensive modification.
Newer shooter here so if I shot the VP9 and it was like shooting a magic gun and I just could NOT miss dead center lol is the VP9sk similar enough to have a duplicate experience ya think? I wonder how much shooting a larger gun had to do with it but is the VP9 really THAT much larger than the sk? I held the sk and it fit like a glove like the full size but I won't be able to shoot an sk before purchasing so a little nervous.
@@ASPextra thanks so much for replying. If it's not the same then I'm getting the full size and will wear it under a jacket year round even in the middle of summer in the deep South lol. I blew giant holes out of the center of 3 targets with the VP9. Amazing gun! Thanks again.
At 1m33s, Bill says “We got them all.” I don’t need the new released SK. I need the SCS for my 2022 SK OR. Thanks for the response and valuable content.
@@ASPextra well, if you put enough rounds through it, at some point you would want to detail strip the slide and/or frame. I would love to get one but that has steered me away.
Don't let it. Neil's has about 50k rounds through it right now and it's in great shape. I have another one with 20k. And those are verified not "internet rounds." It's a robust gun that will last a long time.
@@ASPextra I was looking at the full size for HD/range but went with another manufacturer. But I’m looking for another EDC, something larger than micro.
Good to see HK catching up to the year 2018.
Thanks for the update.

It really is pretty cool.
Great review and interview with HK.

Harder than you think with the shorter body.
I have an SCS on my G19, gotta say I love the compact height of it. Normal height sights instead of the oversized suppressor sights. So much better than needing a plate.
I’m an H&K fan boy but $1500 for it makes me want to cry 😭
Darn. Would of liked to have the direct mount on the p30 as well but I guess the Langdon collab will work for now.
LOVE my P30SK LEM as my EDC, and I'm about to order the P30L LTT with a trigger job and red dot.. just because!
Just got mine P30 LEM back from LTT. Best 💰I’ve ever spent on a 🔫
@@dkmillerii what mods did you get?

@@rtucker1004 - Optic cut for Holosun, Gray Guns flat trigger w short reset. Love it!!
Finally, it all comes together the gun and the optic and new mag capacity
Definitely getting mine!

I bet you typed this on a Chinese phone.
I’d like to see a micro compact from HK
Look up "VP9CC" leaked to be a commission from the Grreman special forces. They're supposed to get the first ones to them by 2024.
I'd like to see .22lr conversion kits for the different models.
SFP9CC
Well you’re in luck! It was announced a month ago
@Phillip Smith I saw that! They heard me
Nice new gun. I've come to love the HK brand since i switched my edc from CZ to HK
Great into, appreciate it
Did you get any strikes for some old gun videos? Seems like everyone got one.

I’ve been trying to find one!! Where can I find one???? My local H&K dealer says they probably won’t get any. 😢😢😢
New to the H&K family and I’m in love. My Glocks may just go bye bye. Blame it on the Vp9 and vp9sk 😅
HK, my preferred carry pistol
John sounds a little lit if you know what I mean. Cheers my friend 🍻
Will be ordering some new mags now. Next they need to up the usp compact +2 rounds. Also surprised HK would slum it w holosun and not go aimpoint acro. But I guess it makes sense for the vp series.
Important question: will there be a kit or RMA process for me to transform my 13rd mags to 15rd mags?
I know they will sell 15 round mags in the web shop, but not sure on the kit for guts. Probably not enough parts to do that short term.
I have a Holosun SCS on my M&P Metal 2.0 as well
So avideo from 5 years ago has john saying he could not get one of these and just now this civilan version came out i aussume makes me wonder what the difference is
Why not P30 with direct mount? Heck, why not P30 with a mount, perod. John use your influence and convince the man to start making those too.
Much more complicated than you think. The P30 is a much harder gun to make optics-ready and HK sells every VP9 they can produce.
wonder if the new 15 round mags will fit the old SK model
Same question......
Yes, Same dimensions but they changed the internals so it holds two more rounds.
@@ASPextra awesome thanks!
Please make a P30SK with an optic cut.
I just purchased a vp9, then I was going to get new one until I heard the price..
Thanks for the video. Looks like a nice package, but it also looks like HK is trying to "out-Glock" Glock. Coming out with a "new" product that really is not new.
Hey John - that P30 looks REALLY familiar… 😂. Shot some Bill Drills with mine today - IN LOVE!!
You are a VP 9 guy LOL you are swayed into liking it 🤣😂 It is a sexy gun though I will say 😍 Thanks for showing us the SHOT Show products

How does one get to the shot show of your not in the industry?
Become an "influencer".
You don’t. SHOT is an industry trade show, not a consumer show.
Is the new SK available with the B model magazine release button. Love how my HKs shoot but not a fan of paddle mag releases.
No, it's paddle only. I really think paddle is better once you know how to run it. ua-cam.com/video/nkSWUK5xpLM/v-deo.html
@@ASPextra thanks for your quick response. That’s too bad, perhaps that will be a future option. Not a fan of the paddle. I do know how to use them, but as my primary EDC is a 1911,I prefer not to learn both. In my experience stuff goes sideways when it hits the fan.
Never seen a private citizen use a reload in any capacity in a defensive gunfight in analyzing over 40,000 of them, so it's not really an issue IMO.
@@ASPextra point well taken. I’m a retired MP, so reloads are still something I practice. Thanks for responding.
I was wondering when they would do that. I have both the ak and full.

I have two. One green vector and one red. Been using both three times a week for a year. Not one problem.
Your gunsmith is way, way behind the times.

You missed what this is. This isn’t a gun cut for an optic, it’s an optic cut for the gun and its unique mount plate holes.
@@ASPextra Ok, thanks for the response. That makes much more sense.
wha exact t model of halogen is that? Thx.
You mean the lights ?
@@hackerjamsandjustweggamer spell check got me. I meant halo sight. I bought one already. thx!

Very similar. Controls are identical. Shorter grip and barrel but with the 15 round mag in you should feel pretty close to the same.

Bill is the man! Loved shooting with him at the ASP Conference! Still haven’t broken down and switched to HK yet…
Will the new 15 round mags work in the P30sk?
Yes! 🙃
@@ASPextra Well hot diggity-dog! Time to order a new holster and get the ol' girl back in the mix!
Dang I want one now, that’s gonna be a pretty penny.
Where is the new subcompact from them... c'mon HK!
I love ya John but GEEZ!! Haha 😂
Are these zeroed in at the factory? Nice gun; But VERY over-priced..!!
Not overpriced at all.
Agree. $1,200 for a compact pistol is Way too much at the end of the day when looking at comparables.
Did he say $1200???? Nahhhhh fam. I can buy 3 more Sig P365 for that price or a Staccato. You're crazy.
That SCS was showcased at SS last year, but never became available. Now to hear that HK is hoarding all of them is not humorous at all.
They’re not hoarding. They’re releasing on guns.
At 1m33s, Bill says “We got them all.” I don’t need the new released SK. I need the SCS for my 2022 SK OR. Thanks for the response and valuable content.
@@rlpennell preach brother
I want a hammer fired, v1 Light LEM micro compact. PLEASE!!!!!!!!!
That would be legit.
It cost me $1155 out the door in Northern Virginia. Worth every penny. I retired my HK p30sk for this.
No 10mm? If you have good eyes and know how to use Iron Sights, there is no need for optics on pistols !
Lol are you new here?
Sorry Jhon I’m a Walter fan, hk just slightly missed the mark for me

Overly engineered imo for a polymer gun. Hopefully you never need to detail strip that thing.
Why would you ever do that? Field strip and clean is fine.
(and I say that as a certified VP9 armorer...I know alllllll the little parts)
@@ASPextra well, if you put enough rounds through it, at some point you would want to detail strip the slide and/or frame. I would love to get one but that has steered me away.
