Heckler & Koch's VP9 series of guns are the most-popular handguns in the company's history, and H&K is keeping the momentum going with an updated package for its 2020 line of VP9s. Instead of 15-round magazines, VP9s will now come equipped with 17-round magazines, improved iron sights and all VP9 handguns will come with slides cut to accept red-dot optics.
