VP9, Should I?

[Chapped Hide]

Took off from work early today to do some window shopping at my LGS. Wasn't looking for anything special and didn't expect to see anything worthwhile left to SSE. I was hoping to find a metal framed 9mm that would pique my interest but saw nothing. Looked at a CZ75, M&P and a G29 for ****s and giggles, nothing special though. The guy helping me then pulls out a VP9 and when I picked it up it felt like it was made to fit my hand.

I didn't expect to buy any more polymer's, I've been trending towards metal framed guns lately but I think I have to have this pistol. The price is right at $699 but I have no idea what I'm getting to.

Anyone have any advice and experience with this model? I've only ever shot Glocks and 1911's.

Which lgs? I'll take it. Hahaha

I dunno, its not like anybody actually liked the VP9 in the other 100 threads about it recently

Yes. Think of it like a G-17 that fits your hand. And hits what you aim at. With a nice trigger.

Honestly, I haven't read a thing about it. I know there's been a ton of posts about the VP9 but I figured it was just a fad.

$699 at Riflegear.

Really a great handgun.

VP9 sucks didn't you hear? The trigger is trash and you'll be lucky if it doesn't blow up in your hands. BTW - can I get the address of the store that you visited?

I've got a Gen 4 G17 and the trigger on the VP9 was soooo much nicer.

its a good gun...I have the VP9 and the PPQ and also the CZ 75 SP-01

I rank it like this
1. CZ 75 SP-01
2. PPQ
3. VP9

I like the overall feel and comfort of the SP-01...so smooth and so nice to shoot. I think the PPQs trigger is better than the VP9

Don't forget, HK has a $200 rebate for all HK firearms including the VP9.

So, you pay $699 + tax + DROS, send in your rebate and get $200 of it back.

My LGS has a VP9 in stock for $737 out the door.

The rebate excludes the VP9.

Holy ****! That works out to about $600 by the time it's said and done.

Oh well, still sounds like a good deal I guess.

TomT is correct. Sorry that guy got your hopes up.
