Overview

The HK VP9cc is a German-made micro-compact built in Oberndorf. HK lists a 6.02-inch overall length, 3.13-inch barrel, 17.64-ounce unloaded weight, and 10- or 12-round magazine capacity. It retains the VP9-pattern paddle magazine release, ambidextrous slide release, charging supports, and short-takeup striker trigger.

The VP9cc uses six interchangeable backstraps to adjust grip size and trigger reach. Its extended Picatinny-style rail accepts compact 1913 accessories. The proprietary optic cut places the plate around the striker channel so compatible optics sit lower than on a conventional adapter-plate system. HK's operator's manual specifies Plate 1 for the Holosun 507K and Shield RMSc, and Plate 2 for the Trijicon RMRcc. HK part 50257862 is the Picatinny grip frame, not an optic plate.

VP9cc magazines are dedicated to the platform and do not interchange with VP9, VP9A1, VP9SK, or CC9 magazines. HK supplies one 10-round flush-fit magazine and one 12-round extended magazine where permitted.
