- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- In this video we take a thorough look at the H&K P2000 series, from history, design, contract requirements, models, variants and features. Along the way, you'll learn more about this series of pistols than you can in any other single source format and hopefully come to appreciate what I believe to be the most underrated pistol series in the H&K product catalog.
As discussed, here is my USP series video, which I highly recommend you watch prior to the P2000 series video:

This is my favorite series on all of UA-cam. My P2000 was the first pistol I ever bought, and I'm still in love with it.
This is the absolute best p2000 video out there
This guy is an honest and skilled armorer with HK guns. I used him for a P2000 and he was timely and polite. I recommend his work.
I love my P2000SK. It's my first pistol, and I haven't fallen out of love with it since. It's just so freakin' aesthetic. Late-90s and early 2000s HK pistols are peak aesthetic!
P2000 was definitely a pistol that flew under the radar for me. I was of course aware that it existed but never really thought much about it either positive or negative. Then on a whim early last year I ended up with one in a trade, and it has since largely usurped my other carry guns.
James, thanks for this in-depth review on my favorite CCW. For me, it has been the Goldilocks solution after years of searching. If I were to design a CCW, I can’t think of anything that would surpass the P2000. While the world has largely moved on to striker-fired handguns, those of us who appreciate the advantages of a hammer-fired CCW consider the P2000 one of the best.
I’ve had a VP40 and a 40S&W P2000 for years had no idea the mags were interchangeable 😂, great video
I just got my P2000 after years of wanting one. My first HK and I love it.
P2000sk LEM was my first handgun. I've only swapped the mag release with the one from the 45C. Everything else is amazing!
I really enjoy these long-format videos. Thank you for your time and sharing your expertise.
Changing the mag release to the 45c mag release was a game changer
Thanks for this in depth video! Second to none. I picked up a p2000 v3 in .40 several months back. Added the Grayguns short reset kit, hk45c mag release, and nickel sear spring. Love it. Waiting on my 357 sig barrel to arrive, can't wait to try it.
I carry a P2000 in 357 Sig. I had Bill Springfield do some trigger work to reduce free travel and reset. That was 3 years ago. It is an outstanding EDC.
35:04 Being one of those old S&W Model 19 & 686 revolver guys, I was issued one of the first .40S&W USP Compacts when the U.S. Border Patrol first issued them to air crewmen and plainclothes duty in ‘04 to replace the Beretta .40S&W 96D Brigadiers. In ‘06 I turned in the USP and was issued a P2000 .40 compact that I carried until ‘15 when it exceeded 10,000 rounds and still functioning like a champ. Carried P2000 compact #2 until I retired in ‘18. I immediately ordered a .40S&W P2000 compact LEM for daily carry.
EXCELLENT VIDEO. Being a gun toter and not an armorer you educated me in a weapons system that I’ve be using for 20 years.
What BP class? I'm 164th....
The P2000 is my EDC. It’s dimensions are great! I ended up sanding down one of the mags baseplates to be able to have a flush fit mag. The texture on the sides of the grip remind me of the MP7 grip.
The Gold Standard of H & K technical videos 👍👍
I'm a VP70Z owner since 1975 with USP 45 Elite, and VP9SK added to the sock drawer. I have/had other Austrian, German and Czech pistols but the H & Ks are keepers. ✌️
Well armed in New Hampshire ☮️🇺🇲
Absolutely incredibly detailed insight into the P2000 to include USP, USPc, and both P2000 and P2000SK pistols. I have a significant number of HK pistols, starting from 1985 when I bought my first P7M8 largely due to the ambidextrous design. I then purchased a USPc in 45 which, although not ambi, gives me an appreciation for that era of HK pistol designs. Then I bought a new P30, two new VP9s, and lastly a new P2000SK. Thanks to the interchangeability of many HK pistols I then expanded my caliber choices on my P2000SK to have a 40SW slide and barrel for the SK and then finally a 357Sig barrel. The interchangeability is simplified by the magazines, as well, as the 357Sig rounds fit inside a 40SW magazine for the SK. I continued with my collecting onto my VP9s pistols by adding a VP40 slide and barrel to turn it into a VP40. My latest acquisition is the VP9 Match with the longer slide and barrel, and the cutout for a red dot sight (in my case I chose the Swedish Aimpoint ACRO). Despite years of HK ownership and use, I learned many more things from your video. You did a great job! One more piece of RARELY GOOD NEWS is that California has added the VP, VP9L and VP9SK to the approved handgun roster! I suspect that is because they may drop the P2000 lineup someday. On my Calif CCW I have a P7M8, my USPc 45, and the P2000SK which I carry 90% of the time due to the size. Again, an incredible video, worth every minute.
Thanks for another great video, this is a great series and it's nice to get the real info on these guns from a knowledgeable source. The P2000 is (IMO) the most underrated of the current HK lineup.
Awesome review of these fine handguns! I own a P2000 SK LEM and it's the finest most versatile pistol I've ever owned and I've pretty much had all of them over 40 years. The overall quality, ergonomics, performance, etc. is simply the finest in the industry. Thanks for sharing
Thank you so much for continuing this series. Your earlier videos in this series are an amazing reference for anyone serious about H&K products. I own a USP 9mm and found your USP videos particularly insightful. Looking forward to what I assume will be the next one, the P30 series.
I really enjoy your videos. I am a big HK fan, but my collection has dwindled over the years. I can continue to live my hobby through your inforamative content. Thank you sir. Semper Fi.
Thanks for watching!
I agree the P2000 is one of the most underrated handguns but not just for HK but across brands. I think the P2000 and the PX4 storm are both some of the most amazing and greatly passed over firearms (P2k does look much better though).
I didn’t know about the P2k magazine disconnect, I’m one that always looks to remove them but would consider adding this one.
Thanks James for the content, Semper Fi brother!
You convinced me to buy a P2000. I saw how much higher the prices were now compared to just a few months ago and I looked at all of the evidence we have on whether the P2000 is going to be discontinued soon, and I think you are correct, I think it is going to be off the line in the near future and I decided that the p2000 is so incredible in its own ways that I didn't want to lose the chance to own one for a reasonable price. They're already like 50%-75% more expensive than they were like a year ago, and I don't wanna be the sucker who missed out and now has to pay over $1000 for one
I found one in V2, LE bundle for $675+fees, no tax, new and I snagged it. I figure it's not gonna get any better than that.
Just snagged my V2 LE this week for just under 700 🔥
Just picked mine up 530$ SK V2 LEM
Thank God for people like you with your background that have real knowledge to share.
Many thanks. Happy to share the knowledge and experience.
This is such a valuable resource for engineering nerds like me who love the details of these genius designs. Also I think this video probably sold a P2000 to me. I'd be excited to get my hands on a 9mm V3. This is a gun that I sort of passed by, but hearing about all the innovation and iterative development that went into it, and learning about just how superior the build quality of these HK blaster is, really made me want one. I just recently bought a USP 45 and I'm sure it won't be my alst HK.
Glad you enjoyed the video. You’ll find many more like this on my channel.
@@teufelshundtactical Thanks James! I'm excited to see them. I already started the USP history video. I actually had a question about the P2000, sorry if I missed it, but is the finish on the P2000 the same hostile environment finish that one would find onthe USP? It looks darker to me so I wasn't sure.
@@JordanBWatchGuy Same finish, slightly different look over the years.
I’m an HK aficionado myself, and I *always* learn plenty when James drops a video.
Excellent content, as always.
Wow absolutely the best P2000 video on UA-cam. I have had mine for years and it is still my go to handgun.
Own the P2000 and the SK model, both in 40s&w. I absolutely love these firearms
I bought an P2000 as an impulse buy last year. I sort of stumbled into owning a VP9 five-ish years back and have been very impressive with it. I knew a little about the older HK pistols but most are out of my price range. I saw a P2000 and realized I'd never seen one before and decided I wanted it. I really like it. I shoot it better than I shoot my Glock 17.
H&K, Head and shoulders above the rest!
Always enjoy when you do these in-depth videos thank you for sharing and putting the work in to make them
Teacher !!! Excellent report on H&K ! Simply the best !
I was trying to figure what I have vs the safariland menu now I know. This is great, you know your stuff. Thank you
I just got the P2000SK LEM heavy variant. Changed it to the light variant put in the nickel plated sear spring and installed the Grey Guns short reset kit and extended paddle mag release. I think it keeps up with all the single stack micro 9s in many ways for a deep carry gun. It’s still slimmer than my Glock gen 3 26. I do plan on getting the P2000 light LEM variant with the GG SRS kit. I’m glad it’s still on the unconstitutional Ca gun roster. My only other HK pistol is the grey frame USP 45 also converted to light LEM which is another great shooter!
Light LEM is fantastic. Try an HK45 with it and you may never go back.
I always assumed that if I was gonna carry a hammer gun, that it was gonna be a DA/SA or my 1911. But I always a big fan of Walther, and had heard all the legends about how good the P99 was, both in 9mm and .40, and I happened to stumble onto a used Gen 1 in .40 at a gun shop for $300. I thought this was a pretty good price considering that it was almost pristine on the outside and looked like it had only run a few hundred rounds at most on the inside.
What I didn't know beforehand was how much I would come to love that trigger. The P99 has a trigger very very similar to this one. You can use the double action or you can use the single action, although it uses a different firing system, but on the user side, it's very similar. And it includes a decocker, which the V7 LEM I just ordered does not have one.
I already had guns like the CZ P-01, a Double action 1911, single action 1911, and a .38 special revolver with a realllllly heavy trigger, but that P99 trigger completely changed my outlook on carry guns and inspired me to get a USP Compact 9mm in V7 Light LEM configuration.
I had actually avoided HK for a long time because I listened to all the Fudd online about how they are overpriced, not worth it, outdated, bad triggers, all hype, and that I should 'buy cheap guns for my first firearms and then decide later if you wanna get the best...', and I stupidly fell for that advice and just kept moving up the price bracket until I got a VP9, and that instantly destroyed my appreciation of pretty much every other striker fire I had -- Shield Plus, CZ P-10F, Glock 19, Glock 17, LCP Max; the only one that I think stands up to the VP9 is the Walther PDP/PDP-F, that's a really great pistol.
Regardless, I was so impressed by that VP9 at only $475, that I knew I shouldn't have listened to all those morons online telling me that they are too expensive and not worth it. You barely have to pay that much more than other guns and you get something far superior and much more special.
Yes the USP Compact 9mm V7 was pricy, especially since I got a new one with the LE bundle, but I got it for $925 and felt like that was a fair price for such a good gun new from HK. Should be arriving at my FFL tomorrow and I'll get to really properly test it myself this weekend. I love my VP9 and my friend's HK45 (he bought one after seeing my VP9 and then trying out his stepdad's HK45) and I expect to enjoy the USP compact just about as much as those. And if I don't like the LEM, well then no biggie, because I can just swap in a V1 no problem.
I appreciate all you do Teufelshund and you really do an amazing job talking about these guns and what makes them so special. I hope you keep doing these kinds of breakdowns forever!
Thanks for keeping this series going. So much knowledge being spread about these awesome firearms.
Thank you James. Always a pleasure to go down the rabbit hole on these.
When you were tearing one apart I had to do the same with my P30 since inside was looking pretty familiar. Really smart designing over there to keep the same parts
I guess I'm going to be late to work today now that I've found this video...
There goes the neighborhood... What the heck,, it's worth it...
P2000 is my EDC of choice. I’ve been carrying it consistently ever since I moved to it, love it
Magnificent German engineering right there. Out of all my HK handgun collection, I have really grown attached to my P2000 v3 as my duty carry gun throughout the years working in private security. Like you said it's a sort of a niche weapon of size, for specific types of duty. I can really see and understand why agencies and departments such as Border Patrol, TSA, flight marshals carried it. Amazing video James!
Hands down, this is one of the best videos on the P2000 on UA-cam and probably the net. James, thank you so much for taking the time to do this. Is there or will there be one for the P30 too (didn't see it in the search)?
Thanks. The continued positive feedback makes the effort worthwhile. Much more H&K info on the channel, and yes, I’ll provide a P30 series video at some point too. I’m trying to source one more special model before filming it.
Outstanding presentation! Looking forward to videos on the HK45/HK45C and P30 series.
Let’s see it!
# USP45T dunks on HK45CT
Great video. I hope you can continue this series further up the HK product line.
That's the plan!
WOW! IMO this is BY FAR the most informative and educational breakdown of the P2000 line up that I’ve seen or read! Prior to seeing this video, I wouldn’t have been able to explain why the pistol has been so accurate and reliable other than it being H&K with their reputation for reliability and accuracy. I have a V2 SK that I was fortunate enough to come across on the used market. It wasn’t cheap in comparison to other popular striker fire pistols of the same size and capacity. The only thing I was aware of at the time was H&Ks reputation and a rough understanding of the LEM system it had. For me, the piston quickly became my favorite sub compact CA compliant that I’ve shot. Accuracy, speed and reliability have been excellent in my experience with it. That you for the education and understanding of the engineering and quality that gives H&K its reputation. I appreciate the pistol even more now.
Glad you enjoyed it. You’ll find the entire channel is dedicated to H&K knowledge transfer.
great tutorial! i own both v1 and v3 lem . i use the lem for edc, the wife has the sk in lem.
I watched the entire thing and I had my own P2000 to follow along! I thoroughly enjoyed this and learned so much! Thank you for what you do.
excited to dig into this one -- You did some work on my P2000 and it's been my EDC ever since.
My gosh you let loose of a LOT of info!
My head has done swelled UP!
MUCH appreciated from a long-time viewer!
Many thanks. So much more to be discovered on the channel. Enjoy.
@@teufelshundtactical I now realize why I enjoy my 3 - P2000 V1's so much...even if they are chambered in that now fallen from grace cartridge...40 S&W.
Fantastic video, James. Love it!! I would liked to have seen more of a deep dive into the three LEM options though. Demos and explanations about how the weights change (is it the take up, reset, shorter pull, just lighter pull, etc.).
It’s pretty much just the weight of the trigger pull. That’s a difficult thing to “demonstrate” in a video, but the weights of each variant are available online. The simple answer of course is the light is light, the medium is medium and the heavy is heavy. You really have to try them to appreciate the difference.
Finally got around to watching.
Love the P2000 series, been carrying the P2000 and P2000SK both in heavy LEM for the last several years with flat magazine baseplates and HK45C magazine releases.
The only issue ive had (so far) with my P2000 that I've had for about 9 years is a broken trigger return spring after maybe 15k rounds. Not really sure what happened because I didn't really have the knowledge (or courage) to do the troubleshooting/"gunsmithing" myself but the gunsmith swapped my trigger return spring to the "heavy" one and its been fine since then. I just installed the 10 lb hammer spring, grayguns SRS, grayguns trigger, and switched out the heavy return spring for the stock trigger return spring so we'll see how she runs. I also have it ported and it runs so flat with the ports, it's awesome. I stippled it myself as well and its 1000% better now. Can't wait to see how it shoots after the trigger upgrades.
I got lost for nearly a minute with the poster across the wall; they are amazing!
The entire shop. Floor to ceiling. Its my happy place.
Hello James...As much as I enjoyed your presentation of the history, development and evolution, I really benefitted from 1:08 on where you got into the nomenclature and parts interaction with regard to function and safety. Another well done video. Thanks.
Thank you tons for posting this! P2000sk is my carry pistol and I learned so many valuable things about it and all the things it's compatible with from this video.
Thank you, James. After watching this video, I purchased a HK P2000sk. It’s a great carry pistol and I replaced the mag paddle with the larger one that’s on my HK45c. I may go back to the smaller stock paddle - the larger one chews up my finger when gripping. It must just be the geometry of the grip-to-hand ratio for me. Love your work with the 1911 Syndicate.
What a great video, thank you. And thank you for the great work you did on my p2000 that I sent you last year for a short reset trigger, and GG flat trigger.
Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks again for trusting me with the service.
This was really an incredible video. Just a treasure trove of knowledge I haven’t seen anywhere else. Thank you!
Thanks. Plenty more on the channel. Enjoy.
Best P2000 video on UA-cam hands down! Great breakdown
Thanks. You’ll find an entire channel full of videos that live up to that statement.
Yes, please more of these!!! Loved the P7 and USP videos. I can't wait for P30!
Man I love all the in depth knowledge you have on this platform, I know a lot about HK but I always learn something new. I believe the p2000 is underrated in HK's lineup. Sort of the middle child. The P2k to me is my ideal ccw, I carry my v3 9mm every day with the 17 round p30 mag with x grip extension. Which kinda makes it a p30 in size but I can have a shorter grip if I want to with the 13 round mag. It's the best of both worlds. Love it so much I got a second one as a backup that just sits in the safe if something were to ever happen to my primary. I have 1,500 rounds through mine this year. I trust this to the end of the world and back. I even put a 10lb hammer spring in mine to lighten up the da pull a bit. Thinking about doing the gray guns short reset kit, I've heard great things about this I don't think it affects the reliability from what I've seen.
Whelp, you made me buy another HK today. I had been behaving and stopped at 5 (USP 9c, USP .45 Expert, USP .40, VP40, HK45c), but now a P2000 in .40 is on its way to my FFL.
I really like the P2000, much more than I thought I would.
Thought you had forgotten it. P2000 has been my edc for last 5 years!
Thanks for the very nice series about HK pistols! I whish there was somebody doing this for Walther pistols as well.
Read the whole video while driving. Very informative thank you
So amped to see the return of these long form armorer reviews. I really was kinda of disappointed you seemed to have moved away from them, but I was worried I'd seem ungrateful for all the work you did if I said anything. I've done just a few vids that do not approach a level of nuance or length like this but apart from them not being all that great just doing all the editing on just a 10 minute video is much more of a task than it appears, I shudder to imagine how long this took to make.
Glad you enjoy the videos. The continued positive feedback I receive on them makes the effort worthwhile. More to come.
I just got my P2000SK v2 LEM trigger in 40sw. Snappy little gun.
This was an Awesome Video! Thank You for sharing it.
Can’t wait for the 45 series video!
Hoping to get it done next.
I'm a big LEM fan, I hope we get a hammer fired version of the SFP9CC.
Great info! Can’t wait for the one for the MP5/SP5!
Love this series, thank you for continuing.
Another wonderful video! I've almost ordered the SK dozens of times, I just can't decide between LEM or DA/SA.
Both!
Love my p2000sk. The ergos and finish is great. Ferrari of cc handguns.
just got one of the p2000sk in fowdy. its really hard to find a polygonal barrel handgun now days. i think its important once you go to the subcompact to get as much fps out of the shorter barrels. not too worried about accuracy in a subcompact. really starting to doubt the terminal performance of 9mm after seeing so much gsw trauma in the ER. probably only a matter of time until whats old is new and whats new is old.
A facelift on these with 15rd mags and an optic cut would make them the coolest pistols.
James is the best! Love his videos!
I love my P2000. It is my EDC. Mine is a 357 Sig.
Love the P2000. To me it is the PERFECT carry gun. I even love the grip texture. I do not love the reverse texture on the 45C. If the 45C had a trigger guard like the P30/2000 and the texture like the P2000 I think it would’ve been a home run
Awesome and thorough video as always. Learned SO much about that platform that I didn't know and really enjoyed the indepth internal workings overview. Thanks for the tip about the 45C extended mag release!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 you do the lords work
The way to get this gun is in 40 with night sights yeah all over the place for great prices. In addition to that you get the $200 incentive to use towards magazines or merchandise on the HK web shop which is sold out of everything.
Love your in depth videos James! Thanks for putting the time and effort into filming and editing them! Any chance you'll ever do one on the PSG1? It's my grail gun and I'd love to see you go through all the differences between it and a standard 91/G3. I still don't fully understand the engineering behind the trigger mechanisms and also why they opted to use a different style of extractor. Would love to know some of the "whys" behind the various changes beyond the blanket explanation of "accurizing" that most people throw out.
Thanks. The PSG1 was included in the “Top 5 Gray Room” video that 1911 Syndicate did with me and released last week. I’d love to have the opportunity do an in depth video, but it would require me having the weapon on hand.
@@teufelshundtactical Man I was dying 😂😂 at the blind chicken biscuit taste test. Is there any specific literature you'd suggest I look into for more info on the PSG? I like HK history and I'm a bit of a roller lock addict 😅 Also planning to sign up for one of the SP5 armorers courses the next time they have one on or near the east coast.
@@Hondatech26We’ll be covering the PSG1 in Volume 3 of the Vickers Guide H&K Book Series.
@@teufelshundtactical Nice! I'll be looking forward to the release.
Lots of upgrades for p2000 on hkparts my next buy will be the sk version. Got a uspc mags are interchangeable.
Overlooked and underappreciated. The P2000 really is the unsung hero of HK's pistol lineup. Wonderful video, but I have 2 questions though James. Do you know why the trigger guard was redesigned with the slanted front for the SK? And why has there never been a factory threaded barrel option?
Thanks. If you look at the SK trigger guard, it is in the same style as the original (Euro spec) P2000. The change to the US Spec P2000 was made to match the USP Compact trigger guard, since both the USP Compact and P2000 were being submitted to the Homeland Security contract and could then use the same holster. No such requirement was present for changing the P2000SK.
Oh yeah, and no threaded barrel, again, because no contract requirement. The other weapons that H&K has offered a threaded barrel model, have all been because of specific contract requirements for one.
Thank you for the info. Do you know of a company that can thread an HK factory barrel? Seems like a standard P30L barrel would be the correct donor for this kind of a project.
@@chrisfishback7363 If you have a P2000SK, you could order a P2000 barrel and have it threaded.
Most underrated slept on H.K. ever💯. I experienced the P2000 to shot smoother and more accurate than USP and P30. Hence why I own 2 of them 😊. One, I've shot over 10k flawless and the 2nd is my collection piece two-tone fde (safe queen). Keep sleeping on the P2000 and continue to waste your money upgrading the VP9 😅
Question for you on the V3 vs LEM - is one inherently more reliable and/or durable than the other? Personal preference aside and from a mechanical standpoint only.
Thank you for the time you put into these videos - they are a valuable resource.
living in CA my options were insanely limited...first moment i held the p2000 V3 (not SK) I knew it was for me. balanced, fit well in the hand, compact yet not snappy to shoot and hasn't had a single malfunction in my first 1000 rounds. A rear decocker should be the go-to for every pistol, way better than a side safety/decocker.
My only complaints are the disassembly is a little more difficult than other pistols, and the reset is a little longer than I would like out of the box. i'm looking to set it up with a short reset kit.
Glad you found one you liked. If you need help with the upgrade, you can reach me through my website.
@@teufelshundtactical Much obliged sir. Silly question but is this Mag Part Number compatible with a P2000 V3? #HKP-17203
I'm moving out of CA and looking to have at least 1 emergency high-capacity magazine.
You mentioned some incompatibilities, depending on the US/European models? Thanks again!
@@atranimecsI don’t have the part numbers in front of me, but if you contact H&K Customer Service, they can help you.
Absolutely phenomenal video. Thank you for the service you provide to the community. 👊🏼👊🏼
My man.
Just brilliant.
Love these videos.
Great video!
Thank you. I loved this video.
Thanks for the great video! Really enjoyed it.
Question: do you have a personal recommendation for the right-side slide release rattle?
Thanks. The secret is to not remove it in the first place, as it will loosen up the more you do so. A simple fix is to take a roll of blue painters tape, cut a small piece and place it on the inside of the lever and paint it black with a sharpie. Seems silly, but works.
@@teufelshundtactical Unfortunately, mine came with it already loose... But I'll give your suggestion a go. Thanks again!
You mention the option to get +2rd for HK magazines. How does that work for the 10rd and 13rd mags? I have been testing the +2rd (15rd to 17rd) follower, spring and locking plate in the the 13rd (now 15rd) USPc magazine body and base plate, and so far it has worked great but I cant imagine, that you can use the same new spring in the 10rd mag body.
The magazines are all new. Looking the same as before, but now with extra witness holes and extra internal capacity. As mentioned in the video, if you have the original mags, you. A purchase the retrofit kit from H&K and swap out the internals for the same capability, just obviously without the witness holes on your original mag body.
Thanks for the info. I though HK only released the 15rd to 17rd conversions/magazines. Was this a recent thing?@@teufelshundtactical
You can also get the new 12 and 15 round P30sk mags and swap the baseplates out. There’s some good info out there on the HKPro forum.
Always felt the USP 45 still makes a ton of sense even today.
I had all three of mine milled by primary machine. It should come like that from factory.
Commiefornia used to have the USP series... I was gonna get one, but it fell off the roster before I had the cash so I gave up... I saw the p2000 but wasn't sure... I just paid for one this last Saturday. I even had to pay the extra 11% Commiefornia tax. But I can now say I own a real H&K... I do have the 416d .22lr plinker rifle, but that is a Umarex.
Just came across this awesome channel! I fell in love with HK after I got my VP9SK a couple years ago. question for @teufelshund Tactical: HK has a micro-compact in the works - any news on the time frame for release to civilian population? Also - is the P2000 SK smaller than the P30SK?
You’re due for a video on the Mr556 or mr762!
Firstly, thanks for continuing this great series!
Over the years, I've read plenty of opinions regarding the USPc's "better" trigger compared to the P2000's. Sometimes it's brought up that HK redesigned the trigger mechanism when moving from the USP series, but no source is provided on that. (I don't believe you mentioned it either in this video). Have you heard of this complaint before, and is it at least based on a real change?
Triggers are a very personal thing and everyone has their opinion. Sadly, those opinions, are not always based on real experience. There is nothing different of significance between a USP Compact and a P2000 of the same variant (meaning compared against DA/SA to DA/SA or LEM Light to LEM Light).
For the X Grip on the SK, put a small drop of silicone/RTV to hold it in place.
he liked everyones comment except yours , you should think about that
All HK hammer fired, I recommend LEM trigger.
