In a bit of a break from my usual writing (covering ongoing court cases and weekly deals posts for the most part) today I’m tackling something a little different. I’m going to explain my choice of a first handgun, a VP9SK.

According to the German Magazine Welt, Heckler & Koch are fighting for survival as their credit rating keeps falling. You can find the original source here, in German.

Longing for that Silent Night with your new suppressor? Don’t forget about your host weapon.

Those that scoff at these GmbH-made guns usually do so based on retail prices or on philosophical reasons. I’ll waste no time on “because they hate us” discussions here, instead I will introduce you to the VP9SK – the much anticipated, and affordable, younger brother of the widely accepted H&K VP9.
