Heckler & Koch's VP9 became a common sight on duty belts because of its trigger, its grip and its reputation for dependable service. This used VP9F is the optic-ready version, which means the slide is cut to take a red dot.

We know it comes with the box and two magazines, and that it is used. The VP9 is a striker-fired, polymer-framed pistol with interchangeable backstraps and side panels, which lets you fit the grip to your hand. Shooters often note how well it points and how consistent the trigger feels.

Used means the pistol shows some signs of prior ownership, and it is sold as described. Review all photos, look at the finish at the muzzle and the slide edges, and check the magazines for wear. A complete box and two magazines is a good start. Take your time with the fundamentals of grip, sight picture and a smooth trigger press, and the pistol will do its part.

It ships to a licensed dealer you choose, where you complete the background check and take delivery. A fair pick for someone shopping for a quality polymer pistol without the new price.
