HK VP9 Optic Ready Slide Assembly - Black Steel w/ Tall Sights

The HK 51001081 VP9 Optic Ready Slide transforms standard VP9 pistols into red dot-capable platforms without requiring permanent modifications. This factory slide assembly delivers the precision machining and reliability that Heckler & Koch builds into every component.

What Makes This Different

Unlike aftermarket slide modifications that can void warranties, this genuine HK slide maintains full factory specifications while adding optic mounting capability. The integrated tall sight system co-witnesses with popular red dot optics, providing backup iron sights that remain functional even if the electronic optic fails. Cold hammer-forged steel construction matches the durability standards of the original VP9 slide.

Key Features

• Factory optic cut compatible with RMR footprint red dot sights
• Tall suppressor-height sights for co-witnessing with mounted optics
• Cold hammer-forged steel construction with HK's proprietary finish
• Direct drop-in replacement for standard VP9 slides
• Includes optic mounting plate and protective cover

Field testing demonstrates consistent lockup and timing identical to standard VP9 slides. The optic cut accommodates popular red dot sights including Trijicon RMR, Leupold DeltaPoint Pro, and similar footprint optics. Weather sealing around the optic mount prevents moisture intrusion during adverse conditions. Competition shooters report faster target acquisition with the elevated sight line.
