Newt -  congrats on you P7!  As far as the Nills, I would think you would have to recover from the cost of the P7 first.  I know I would.

But after seeing how great they look, it sure is tempting.  Now, do I get a set for my M8 or M13?

You guys are a bad influence!

Thanks Reinz! Richard don't wait, the P7M8 is the sweetest shooting 9mm I've ever had. I've got another on the way and a P7 PSP. H&K Trussville, Alabama still services them and the last production run will be at dealers in a "few months". Very acurate! www.HK-USA.com.

There seems to be a trend here with the ownership of R9s' and the P7's. 8)

Bringing the ol' P7 thread back to life...

If any of you are sitting on the fence -- wishing you had a P7 in your collection, the time to act is NOW!

A fresh batch of German Police Trade-ins have arrived in country and places like CDNN have (or had) a nice stock of them.

They come in three Grades -- A through C.  The A-graded guns are essentially LNIB.  The B-graded guns have slight finish wear and the C-graded guns include the rest.  However, even the C-graded guns were carried much and fired little.  Some of the internals I've seen look LNIB making these great refinish candidates.

At prices beginning just over $500 -- now is the time to grab up one of these fine pistols.  Quite possibly you'll feel like many of us -- that they are the sweetest shooting 9mm pistols on the planet!

Enjoy!
I'm not a gun expert -- but I did stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night...

+100 on what Fly said. I got a grade A and it's like NIB. I now have 3 P7M8's, 2 P7's, & 2 P7M13's! ::) Best 9mm made IMO!

Tom, I hear you. But at 780g emptied, I find the P7M8 quite attractive when comparing it to other 9mm steel guns:


720g Walther P99


Just my old fart opinion, and from what I hear the H&K P7M8 is argueably the finest example of the 9mm pistol ever manufactured..

My problem with the H&K P7M8 is that it's heavy, and has limited capacity.  

My plastic Walther P99/AS is lighter, and offers 15+1 (or 16+1) capacity.  I'm an old dude and my vision is declining, so the extra rounds are a real plus for me.

Not trying to be confrontational, just expressing my opinion.  ;)  Here is my cc choice & backup..



Best Wishes,

Just when I'm ready to spring for a well-worn standard P7M8, I see this on the Collectors Firearms web site:

To paraphrase Rick's line in Casablanca, of all the computer monitors in all the world, she had to show up on mine.   :-/
