The HK P30L V1 delivers extended sight radius precision in a full-size duty pistol engineered for professional and competitive applications. This striker-fired variant combines Heckler & Koch's legendary reliability with enhanced accuracy potential through its longer barrel configuration.
What Makes This Different
The P30L extends the proven P30 platform with a 4.45-inch barrel that increases muzzle velocity and sight radius compared to the standard 3.85-inch model. The V1 trigger system features a traditional double-action/single-action mechanism with an ambidextrous safety/decocker lever. Cold hammer-forged barrel construction and HK's proprietary polygonal rifling deliver consistent accuracy across thousands of rounds.
Key Features
- 4.45-inch cold hammer-forged barrel with polygonal rifling for enhanced accuracy
- Ambidextrous controls including safety/decocker and slide release
- Interchangeable grip panels and backstraps for custom fit
- Picatinny rail system accommodates lights and laser accessories
- Phosphate finish provides corrosion resistance in adverse conditions
- 15-round magazine capacity with steel construction
- Three-dot luminous sights for low-light target acquisition
Law enforcement agencies and competitive shooters favor the P30L for its extended sight radius and improved ballistic performance. The longer barrel generates approximately 50-75 fps additional velocity compared to compact variants, translating to flatter trajectory and enhanced terminal performance. Nitrocarburized slide finish resists wear from frequent holstering and environmental exposure.
