My "new" H&K 9mm P2000

Congrats on your pistol and great pics!!!

I have a USP45F, but, sad to say, am pretty P2000 illiterate. I’ve read countless accounts of people going from a G19 to a P2000. Right now, my G19’s are my SHTF pistols, but for the right price, I could easily be swayed to go w/ HK. Some questions if you don’t mind.

What does a typical mag cost for the P2000?
Are mags compatable between the regular P2000 and the P2000SK?
I kind of doubt it, but are the mags for the P2000 and P30 interchangeable?
Is the rail on the P2000 a universal rail vs. the proprietary USP rail?
Are there LEM options on the P2000 that bring it down to the 4.5-5lb trigger pull weight?

Thanks, and again, congrats!!!

Thanks!

Gotcha, like I said, don’t know much about HKs. Thanks

Let me expound on this a little as I’ve had a P-2000 for awhile now…
Mags…Typically about $30-35 CDNN has used ones for $19 (USP compact,saw this in a recent ad in shotgun news). Yes, from what I’ve read on HKpro, P-30 mags WILL fit,(I’ve never tried this so, I don’t know for sure) as well as USP compact mags. The P-30 mags will probably stick out as they are longer and hold more rounds. I’m not sure if P-2000 mags will fit in a SK or not, They may, but the P-2000 mag will probably stick out of the SK a little as well.

Rail…This is supposed to be a universal type of rail…my surefire X-300 snaps right on, As an aside, I’ve yet to get it to lock on my M&P45.
LEM options…My P-2000 is a factory LEM pistol, I changed it to a “light” LEM (4.5 trigger pull) By changing 2 springs, the trigger return spring, and the firing pin block spring. Both bought from HK for about $10-12, instructions for this conversion are found on the HKpro forums, Getting the TRS in was a bitch, but it was well worth the effort.

The P2000 mags will certainly fit the P2000SK. The mags do stick out further because of the shortness of the P2000SKs grip. A company called X-Grips make an adapter that slides onto the full size mag, which gives you a longer grip and more rounds to carry in your SK model. Since my P2000SK is in .40S&W, the recoil really makes the little SK jump around. I bought the larger magazine, put on the X-grip adapter, and now the grip is the same as the P2000 full size pistol. It really makes shooting it much nicer!

P2000, P2000sk, P30 and USP compact magazines all have the same dimensions in everything except length/capacity.
They are interchangeable like Glock magazines are.

Wow I must be off today…I totally forgot that you could use the same mags but they’d stick out the grip since they’re longer. My mistake! I read “will they be an exact fit”. I used to run 17 round mags in my 19 all the time.

Would I be able to run 15 round P30 mags with the grip extension that is sold for the P2000SK so there’s isn’t a gap between the end of the grip and magazine?

Great price on a great pistol and love the pics.

The P2000 is a good gun. The P2000 mags will fit a SK but will stick out a little bit. The SK conceals very well with a Crossbreed IWB holster under a loose fitting t-shirt. I carry a full size 12 round mag for a spare when carrying an SK. A word of caution check the roll pins by the receiver/hammer they tend to slide a little bit out of alignment. Just tap them back in place. Also check your sights if you bump them or take a spill. They will slide a little bit. Otherwise the OP basically got a new gun from the pics. Enjoy!!

I always try to follow instructions. :big_boss:

What night sights are people using on this gun?

Meprolight and Trijicon are about your only options for the P2000/SK. They are nearly identical but the Mep’s can usually be found a little cheaper. Both are very good if you like a 3-Dot set up.

You should have gotten the 40 caliber instead because it is a lot more deadly. So sure, I’ll take that puny 9mm off your hands! LOL

I love these things and congrats on the steal of a price. I do concur that the larger mag releases are nice, but I use my index finger on these guns. So the stock one is just fine for me.

Oh would you please take it off my hands?!?! :sarcastic:
I tried getting used to hitting the mag release with my trigger finger but my hand just wouldn’t do it. Using my middle finger was more natural for me and after I finally got the larger mag release from HK, it made a WORLD of difference.

I can’t believe there are still dudes alive who don’t know where the backwards bullets thing comes from.

… They also don’t notice that it’s only ever seen in H&K pictures…
