![]() Pretty sure there's one instance on HK Pro of that that I read and a number more of the FP bushings failing (have three spares). It is different though and some people will not like thatĪnd of course, you will always have the sour grapes people talking about how they don't like it. My family (father then I) ran a gunshop for 50 + years and I have had access to EVERY pistol available, and made this one my choice. A correct holster and belt 100% eliminates that problem That is poor holster/belt selection and not gun related. Someone mentioned it is "floppy" in a holster. The straight up feed angle / magazine is brilliant and not sure why more guns didn't figure that out P7M8 is my EDC and has been for decades (well, when I EDC a pistol and not a rifle).Ġ stoppages in 30 odd years of using the gunĪs I don't routinely get into extended firefights (and news flash, neither will you) the capacity doesn't bother meĭoes get warm after extended firing (see the part above about extended firefights), but don't care A sear lever breaking is really not that high up on the list of potential problems. ![]() I also have a whole pile of spare springs and stuff that might actually break and guess what, nothing ever has. While Beretta’s 92 series got the nod from the Pentagon in that case, HK did take advantage of those R&D Deutschmarks spent in the chase to field new variants of the P7 for the commercial market.Name me one instance of a "sear lever" needing to be replaced in the first place. Army’s XM9 9mm pistol trials in the 1980s to replace the M1911. One model, the P7A13, was even submitted to the U.S. In the end, the HK squeezebox was only adopted by a few state police agencies, namely New Jersey and Utah. ![]() with a corresponding American-style push-button magazine release rather than the European heel catch, they were marketed as “the most expensive handgun in the world,” with a list of the reasons why the P7 was superior to the more economical options. Speaking of pricey, when the guns were marketed in the U.S. However, several German counter-terrorist teams (with larger budgets) adopted the HK PSP as did the German Army Special forces (KSK Kommando Spezialkräfte). The thing is, cops in every country have a budget, even German ones, and the P7, while super neat, was kind of pricey when compared to the competition, a factor that meant it was only bought in small numbers. ![]()
