Quote HistoryQuoted: Any pistol you ever plan on having to shoot someone with needs a light on it. Bad guys don't go home with the sun goes down.  https://www.ammoland.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/Surefire-Xsc-G43x.jpg You don’t need a light on your carry pistol. You need to carry a light, but it doesn’t have to be on your pistol. If you carry one on your pistol, you still need to carry one separate. For home defense and otherwise, sure. Not needed or even a want for a carry gun. Close to useless even. |

The reality is you still have to carry a handheld even if you carry a light on your carry gun. I don't have one on mine; but as I said before it will be a tough sell to people that they should buy a particular pistol when it has fewer features, and since it is an HK it is likely to cost more than current options from Sig and Springfield. Don't have one? That's one thing. Can't mount one? That's another and means my options may be limited if I want to in the future. And you're still not addressing the increasing popularity of red dots on carry guns. |

I agree with you. More features are often better; and the compact pistol market is really benefiting from all these different options vs 10 years ago.Not what I was debating with the other guy though. |

Or is it a convenient every-day light carry gun for the guy whose priority is easy unobtrusive while he is focusing on the daily aspects of his day? This HK pistol for me, would be an easy concieler while doiing my day - not 15 yard dark alley night shots. Point being, the bad ass tactical pistol with 2 battery devices, likely would be safely sitting at home, rather than on me. A bare pocket pistol, would be. |

Needs a paddle mag release, plus an optic cut and I'm in. HK has done a lot with the VP line recently and hopefully are applying those lessons here. VP9SK that comes in about P365 wide would be perfect.

I’m glad the micro compact concept has become mainstream. This means smaller lights that are still plenty bright and smaller red dots to match the micro compact pistols. When manufactures compete we all win. Even if you don’t like HK or think your G43 is the best option, it doesn’t matter. Competition drives innovation.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Curious what exactly they are patenting, I looked it up. Here is the patent claim: https://patentimages.storage.googleapis.com/54/a2/0d/93654dbfc2bca3/USD918328.pdf "The ornamental design for a handgun , as shown and described" Heck, I was unaware you could patent that. There was no other description. Nothing to indicate caliber or round count. I'm assuming it'll be a P365 13 round competitor; as I didn't see anything to indicate it's exclusively single-stack. It's called a Design Patent i.e. not a Utility Patent. God, the stupidity in this thread is overwhelming. I'll be looking forward to a paddle mag release version. If it's push-button only, then I'm not buying, and I'll stick with carrying my P7. Don't care for optics cuts or even a pic rail, personally. |
