The HK P30 V1 delivers the precision engineering and reliability that Heckler & Koch built their reputation on, featuring their innovative ergonomic grip system and match-grade accuracy in a duty-ready package. This variant 1 model comes standard with two 10-round magazines, making it compliant for restricted capacity jurisdictions while maintaining the legendary HK performance standards.
What Makes This Different
The P30 incorporates HK's modular grip system with interchangeable backstraps and side panels, allowing customization for different hand sizes without compromising the frame integrity. Unlike traditional polymer pistols with fixed grip dimensions, this system provides a truly personalized fit while maintaining the structural strength of a one-piece frame. The cold hammer-forged barrel delivers match-grade accuracy with a service life exceeding 200,000 rounds.
Key Features
- Interchangeable grip panels with small, medium, and large backstraps and side panels included
- Cold hammer-forged barrel with polygonal rifling for enhanced accuracy and barrel life
- Ambidextrous slide and magazine releases accommodate both right and left-handed shooters
- Low-profile 3-dot luminous sights with drift-adjustable rear sight
- Picatinny rail system accepts standard tactical lights and laser accessories
- Nitrocarburized finish provides corrosion resistance and reduces barrel wear
- Modified Browning linkless recoil operating system ensures reliable cycling
Field testing demonstrates consistent 2.5-inch groups at 25 yards with quality ammunition, while the ergonomic design reduces muzzle flip and allows faster follow-up shots compared to standard grip configurations. The P30 functions reliably in temperatures from -40°F to 140°F and continues operating after exposure to sand, mud, and saltwater environments. Law enforcement agencies across multiple continents have adopted the P30 platform for duty use, validating its real-world performance under demanding conditions.
