The HK P30L V1 delivers enhanced accuracy and velocity through its extended 4.45-inch barrel while maintaining the proven ergonomics of the P30 platform. This long-slide variant offers improved sight radius and muzzle velocity for competitive shooting and duty applications where precision matters most.
What Makes This Different
The P30L extends the standard P30 frame with a longer barrel and slide assembly, increasing sight radius by nearly an inch compared to compact models. HK's proprietary polygonal rifling reduces fouling while extending barrel life beyond conventional rifling. The V1 trigger system provides traditional double-action/single-action operation with a decocking button, eliminating manual safety manipulation while maintaining safe carry options.
Key Features
- 4.45-inch cold hammer-forged barrel with polygonal rifling for enhanced accuracy
- Interchangeable grip panels and backstraps accommodate different hand sizes
- Ambidextrous slide releases and magazine release for left or right-handed operation
- Picatinny rail accepts tactical lights and laser accessories
- Self-illuminating three-dot sights for low-light target acquisition
- Two 10-round magazines included for restricted capacity compliance
- Nitro-carburized finish provides corrosion resistance and reduced friction
The extended barrel configuration delivers approximately 50-75 fps velocity increase over standard-length models, translating to flatter trajectory and improved terminal performance. Law enforcement agencies appreciate the enhanced accuracy potential for precision shooting scenarios, while competitive shooters benefit from the improved sight radius and reduced muzzle flip. The pistol functions reliably with various ammunition weights from 115 to 147 grains.
