The HK VP9L SCS delivers extended sight radius and enhanced accuracy with its 5-inch polygonal rifled barrel and factory optic-ready slide. This striker-fired pistol combines Heckler & Koch's proven ergonomics with competition-grade features for serious shooters demanding precision performance.
What Makes This Different
The VP9L SCS features HK's proprietary SCS (Slide Cut System) machining that reduces slide weight while maintaining structural integrity. The polygonal rifling increases velocity and reduces barrel wear compared to conventional rifling patterns. Factory lightening cuts and optic mounting provisions eliminate the need for aftermarket modifications, delivering a competition-ready platform straight from the box.
Key Features
- 5-inch cold hammer-forged polygonal rifled barrel for enhanced accuracy and velocity

The extended barrel length provides increased sight radius for improved accuracy in competitive shooting and precision applications.
