H&K's US military and law-enforcement catalogue of 2008 ("© HKDCS 01.12.08"). The HK PSG1 dive cites its "HK Precision Rifles" panel (p. 19) for the PSG1 and MSG90 as H&K offered them then.
HECKLER & KOCH > MILITARY & LAW ENFORCEMENT Both the HK45 and HK45 Compact can be fitted with threaded barrels for use with muzzle mounted sound suppressors. HK45 & HK45 Compact Pistols The HK45 is Heckler & Koch’s newest semi-automatic pistol and is available in both a full-size frame and compact (HK45 Compact) models. The HK45 and HK45 Compact were developed as product improvements of the highly-regarded and ultra-reliable HK USP45 and USP45 Compact family of pistols that were introduced in the 1990s. New user-inspired enhancements found on the HK45 and HK45 Compact are also present on several recent Heckler & Koch semi-automatic pistols, including the P30, P2000, and P2000 SK. These features include changeable grip panels, improved accessory rails, better ergonomics, and more ambidextrous controls. The HK45 and HK45 Compact were originally developed as possible candidates for the Joint Combat Pistol (JCP) and Combat Pistol (CP) programs administered by the U.S. military in their search for a new service handgun. By using the modular approach to the internal components first pioneered by HK on the USP, the control lever function of the HK45 can be switched from the left to the right side of the pistol to accommodate left-handed shooters. Left and right mounted control levers provide safety and/or decocking functions as required and can be fitted to the pistol simply by changing parts. For true ambidextrous use, a control lever can also be mounted on both sides of the pistol if required. HK unde 45 COMP ACT r dev elopm ent The HK45 Compact is functionally identical to the HK45 with a shorter barrel/slide and a shorter, “slim-line” grip. Shown with a 10-round magazine with an extended floorplate. HK45 Compact .45 ACP with standard 8-round magazine and grip insert An improved USP-style control lever, a combination safety and decocking lever, is frame mounted on the HK45 and is quickly accessible. The HK45 control lever has a positive stop and returns to the “fire” position after decocking. Contoured and radiused machined steel slide with forward slide (grasping) grooves and anti-glare longitudinal ribs HK45 Compact .45 ACP with 10-round magazine One piece machined slide made from nitro-carburized steel corrosion resistant “Hostile Environment” blued finish Polygonal bore profile for increased velocity, easier cleaning, and longer barrel life Patented recoil reduction system used on other HK pistols Ambidextrous controls with dual slide releases and enlarged magazine release. P30 Caliber 9 mm Ambidextrous controls with dual slide releases and enlarged magazine release . The full-size frame model of the HK45 measures 8.03 inches (204 mm) in overall length with a 4.47 inch (113.5 mm) barrel. Despite its “full-size” designation it is smaller than both the USP45 and USP40/9. Patented Lock-Out Safety device and interchangeable backstraps (grip inserts) The DAO mode uses the unique LEM (Law Enforcement Modification) firing system for improved double action trigger pull. Well-suited for personal defense use, the HK45 and HK45C (Compact) are available in, or can be converted to, a wide variety of variants that use different trigger firing modes, including SA/DA (single action/double action) and DAO (double action only). The DAO mode uses the unique LEM (Law Enforcement Modification/Combat Defense Action ) firing system for improved double action trigger pull. Polygonal bore for increased velocity, easier cleaning, and longer barrel life HK45 Caliber .45 ACP Low profile slide and slimline, compact dimensions Picatinny rail for installing accessories The HK45 is the first Heckler & Koch model to be manufactured in the new American factory opening in Newington, New Hampshire in 2008. Multiple trigger firing modes include HK’s Law Enforcement Modification (LEM) double action only and conventional single action/double action (SA/DA) with a centrally located decocking button (right). The HK45 uses the ERGO profile grip similar to the recently introduced HK P30.

O-ring for accuracy HK45 and HK45 Compacts have proprietary O-ring barrels for precise barrel-to-slide lockup and optimal accuracy. HK45 and HK45 Compact barrels are made using the famous HK cold-hammer forging process. A recent HK pistol design, the P30 is a modern police and security pistol that combines function and safety. Ergonomic features includes a special grip frame with interchangeable backstrap inserts and lateral plates, allowing the pistol to be individually adapted to any user. Multiple trigger firing modes include HK’s Law Enforcement Modification (LEM) double action only and conventional single action/double action (SA/DA) with a serrated decocking button located on the rear of the slide. Other ambidextrous controls include dual slide releases and magazine release levers. A Picatinny rail molded into the front of the frame makes mounting lights, laser aimers, or other accessories easy and convenient. An advanced loaded chamber indicator is easily seen and felt, and positively indicates a loaded chamber. The P30 has a double action hammer with a firing pin block safety that eliminates the need for a manual safety. Extensively tested, the P30 has already been adopted by several European police agencies. Excellent weight and balance make the P30 naturally pointable, easy to control, and accurate to shoot. www.heckler-koch.com > 3 Polygonal bore for increased velocity, easier cleaning, and longer barrel life Low profile slide and slimline, compact dimensions Ambidextrous slide release (located on both sides of the frame) Modular grip panels options include extra large, large, medium (standard), andsmall to fit all sizes of hands P2000 .40 S&W with 12-round magazine Trigger pull on LEM models is 7.3-8.5 pounds. Trigger pull can be adjusted by an HK armorer to the 5.5 pound range. P2000 and P2000 SK Pistols Recent additions to the Heckler & Koch handgun line, the P2000 and P2000 SK (Subcompact) incorporate features of the successful HK USP Compact pistol with the latest innovations of HK engineers. A refinement of a design created for several European police agencies, the P2000 and P2000 SK are available with a traditional single-action/double-action trigger mode and the LEM (Law Enforcement Modification) trigger system first introduced by HK in 2001 on the USP Compact “LEM” model. The HK Law Enforcement Modification trigger system combines the advantages of a cocked striker component (constant level of trigger pull from first to last round fired) with a double-action hammer system. Using such an enhanced trigger system consolidates ease of use and safety into a convenient, innovative trigger operation—one that reduces the chance of unintended firing. And in case of an ammunition-related failure to fire, all that is needed is an additional second or third squeeze of the trigger without the need of first pulling the slide back to re-cock the pistol. The enhanced LEM trigger system combines the reliability of a double action revolver trigger with the crisp trigger of a single action pistol. On variants using the conventional double-action/single-action (DA/SA) mode of operation an ambidextrous decocking button is mounted on the left, rear portion of the frame. It allows the user to safely lower the hammer from SA position to DA position. This DA/SA variant of the P2000 and P2000 SK is readily identifiable by the presence of the serrated decocking button and spurred hammer. A set of simple-to-install modular grip inserts allow all P2000/P2000 SK models to be custom-fitted to any shooter’s hand. An ambidextrous magazine release and dual slide release levers make handling P2000 Series pistols natural and easy for right and left-handed shooters alike. The addition of “industry standard” mounting rails to the P2000 and P2000 SK allows the widest variety of lights, aimers, and accessories to be added by sliding them onto the open rail system. The HK P2000 US model uses widely available, reliable USP Compact magazines. The same magazines fit the P2000 SK for added firepower. Industry-standard mounting rails allows a wide selection of accessories to be installed (see below) Ambidextrous magazine release lever Patented Lock-Out Safety device Grip Panels Exchangeable grip panels (back straps) accommodate a wide variety of hand sizes and shooting grips. medium small Law Enforcement Modification (LEM) Trigger System Developed especially for a U.S. government agency, the Law Enforcement Modification (or LEM for short), is a unique trigger mechanism created specifically to improve the trigger performance and reduce the weight of the Double-Action Only (DAO) trigger pull in the P2000 SK, P2000, USP, USP Compact , and HK45/HK45 Compact pistols. With this mechanism, HK pistols can be fired like a standard DAO semi-automatic pistol where every round is fired by simply pulling the trigger fully rearward with the hammer starting at the forward rest position. The design of the proprietary HK LEM system allows the weight of the DAO trigger pull to be reduced to a smooth and constant 7.5-8.5 pounds because the two-part hammer is precocked every time the slide moves rearward. No snag, bobbed hammer for effective concealment Industry standard mounting rails allow lights, aimers, and other accessories to be installed by sliding them onto the open rail system 4 < www.heckler-koch.com Exchangeable back straps for modular grip P2000SK .40 S&W P2000 SK 9 mm x 19 with 10-round magazine Flat floorplate magazine for concealment extra large Ambidextrous slide release lever Three dot sights for quick target acquisition, optional tritium sights available Choice of conventional DA/SA or LEM trigger mode on the P2000 and P2000 SK.

LEM (DAO) model appears on the right. large HK Pistols pass the toughest test The P2000, P2000 SK subcompact, and the USP Compact LEM were subjected to the most punishing pistol evaluation to date by the Department of Homeland Security’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement branch. The evaluation was performed with the most potent ammunition loads for three calibers (9mm, .40 S&W and .357 SIG). After three million rounds were fired, HK finished ahead of five other competing manufacturers, earning a “Superior” technical rating. On August 20, 2004, HK was awarded the largest pistol contract in U.S. law enforcement history. Five months later, US Customs and Border Protection (CBP), the largest U.S. federal law enforcement agency, officially adopted the P2000 pistol in .40 S&W, replacing both legacy Glock 17s and Beretta 96Ds. with 9-round magazine P2000 SK can also use high capacity USP Compact magazines Extended rubber floorplate magazines available Patented Lock-Out Safety device www.heckler-koch.com > 5 “Slick-sided” LEM trigger mechanism—the proprietary HK Law Enforcement Modification trigger system has no control lever and ensures an enhanced, smooth DAO trigger mode. LEM function is available on most HK pistols. Raised sights for use with sound suppressor Signature suppression equal to or better than full-size USP Tactical suppressor. Several USP, USP Compact, and specialized USP models are available for use with sound suppressors. Extended o-ring barrel with polygonal bore profile USP40 Compact .40 S&W shown with UTL (weapon light) USP and USP Compact Pistols The HK USP (Universal Self-loading Pistol) is the first HK pistol designed especially for American shooters. Features favored by the U.S. military, law enforcement agencies, and civilian users provided the design criteria for the USP. Its controls are uniquely American, influenced by such famous designs as the Government Model 1911 pistol. The control lever, a combination safety and/or decocking lever, is frame mounted and quickly accessible, unlike the slide mounted safeties common on many semi-automatic pistols. Using a modified Browning-type action with a special patented recoil reduction system, the USP is built to take the punishment of powerful +P and +P+ loads. The recoil reduction system reduces recoil effects on pistol components and also lowers the recoil forces felt by the shooter. The USP recoil reduction system is insensitive to ammunition types and requires Major metal components on the USP and USP Compact are protected from wear and corrosion by HK’s special Hostile Environment (HE) finish. The USP45CT is a compact .45 caliber handgun developed for U.S. special operations use. Termed the “CT” for “counter terrorist” by insiders, the HK USP45 Compact Tactical combines the proven features of the full-size USP45 Tactical pistol in a smaller, more concealable package. no special adjustment or maintenance. It functions effectively in all USP models. By using a modular approach to the internal components, the control lever function of the USP can be switched from the left to the right side of the pistol for left-handed shooters. The USP can also be converted from one type of trigger firing mode to another. This includes combination double-action and single-action (DA/SA) modes, double action only (DA-Only) modes, including the HK proprietary LEM (Law Enforcement Modification) enhanced trigger system. The USP is available in both full-size frame and compact models with ten trigger/firing mode configurations and four calibers—.45 ACP, .40 S&W, 9mm, and .357 SIG (special order on full-size frame USP). USP9 Compact 9 mm USP45 Compact model is only 5% larger than 9 mm and .40 caliber USP Compact models. The extended slide release is contoured to reduce wear and tear on clothing when the pistol is carried concealed. The control lever has a positive stop and automatically returns to the “fire” position after decocking. The control lever, featured on many variants of the USP and USP Compact, allows these pistols to be safely carried “cocked and locked.” All USP and USP Compacts have polygonal barrel profiles made by cold-hammer forging—ensuring increased barrel life and optimal accuracy. USP45 Tactical Caliber .45 ACP USP/USP Compact ambidextrous magazine release lever is shielded by the trigger guard from inadvertent actuation. It can be easily operated using the thumb or index finger without changing the grip of the firing hand. Grip dimensions on USP Compacts are well-suited to shooters with small hands. bb FIRE MODES & CONTROL FUNCTIONS (conversion by HK certified armorer only) ed Ha mm uble er* Act Do ion uble &S ing Act Co le A io nO ntro ctio nly l Le n ver Co ntro (Le ft S l Le ide ver Co ) ntro (Rig l Le ht S ver Co ide ntro (Ma ) l Le nua ver l Sa Co ntro (De fety coc l Le ) kin ver Ca g) libe (No rA D vail eco abil ckin ity g) USP and USP Compact Variant 1 Variant 2 Variant 3 Variant 4 Variant 5 Variant 6 Variant 7 LEM* Variant 9 Variant 10 recoil reduction system - Mark 23 Do Reinforced polymer frame.

Control levers can be installed on both sides for complete ambidextrous function. Lock-out Safety Device HK pistols feature the patented HK Lock-Out Safety Device. When engaged, it locks the handgun’s action by blocking any movement of the hammer strut and slide. The handgun is locked and cannot fire until unlocked. recoil reduction system - USP recoil reduction system - USP Compact Low Recoil The USP’s patented recoil reduction system was tested and proven in the HK Mark 23 pistol issued to the US Special Operations Command. On the shorter USP Compact, the mechanical recoil reduction system found on full-size USPs has been replaced by a specially designed flat compression spring contained in the captive recoil spring assembly by a polymer absorber bushing. Service life is still engineered to exceed 20,000 rounds. www.heckler-koch.com > 7 F Trigger Group HK MP5 Submachine Guns Developed by Heckler & Koch in the mid-1960s, the 9 mm MP5 submachine gun uses the same delayed blowback operating system found on the famous HK G3 automatic rifle. Reliability, accuracy, ease of handling, simple maintenance, and safety — all the elements of HK excellence are highlighted on the MP5. Firing from the closed-bolt position in all modes of fire make MP5 submachine guns extremely accurate and controllable. Over 120 MP5 variants are available to address the widest range of tactical requirements. A selection of optional trigger groups allow for single fire only, full automatic, 2-round, and 3-round burst options.

MP7A1 personal defense weapon (PDW) 4.6 x 30 mm with optional reflex sight and buttstock and vertical foregrip extended All operating controls, including the safety/ selector lever, magazine release, bolt catch/release, and cocking handle are fully ambidextrous. The folding vertical foregrip allows the MP7A1 to be fired with excellent controllability MP7A1 Personal Defense Weapon Smaller than a conventional submachine gun, the 4.6 mm MP7 A1 is a compact and lightweight Personal Defense Weapon that can be carried like a handgun yet is capable of rifle-like effectiveness. The MP7 A1 is manufactured predominantly of carbon fiber reinforced polymer with embedded metal components where needed. The weapon can be field stripped in seconds without tools and requires little cleaning due to its unique gas system. The HK-developed 4.6 mm x 30 ammunition provides the penetration approaching that of an assault rifle round and is able to defeat the types of body armor frequently found in the hands of terrorists and criminal gangs, in particular that of the former Soviet Bloc special forces, now the standard NATO test target (CRISAT). The lethal 4.6 mm x 30 cartridge produces minimal felt recoil (50% of a 9 mm NATO round) to assure that multiple hits are easily obtainable in all modes of fire — incapacitating the target through penetration and permanent tissue destruction. In response to the NATO PDW requirement document D29, HK developed a Personal Defense Weapon system that will penetrate the CRISAT vest, comprised of 1.6 mm titanium plates and 20 layers of Kevlar, out to 200 meters and beyond. Adopted and fielded by several of the world’s leading special operations units, the gas-operated MP7 A1 fires from the closed bolt position, using a rotary locking bolt system similar to that of the HK G36 assault rifle to contain the powerful 4.6 mm cartridge. The MP7 A1 handles like a pistol yet allows targets to be engaged like a rifle. With its 7-inch barrel, the HK MP7 A1 is capable of firing 10-shot semiautomatic groups at 45 meters of less than 2 inches. Unlike competing designs, the conventional and fully ambidextrous design of the MP7 A1 ensures immediate acceptance by all users. Removable full length MIL-STD-1913 rail on the top of the receiver for mounting a wide variety of sighting systems and accessories With the stock retracted, the length of the MP7A1 in less than 15 inches The MP7 A1 is fitted with a removable full length MIL-STD-1913 (Picatinny) rail on the top of the receiver for mounting a variety of optional targeting devices. Optional forearm rails are also available. Standard folding mechanical peep sights can be fitted to the top rail or an optional 24-hour reflex sight can be attached in seconds without tools. The reflex sight provides a single red aiming dot for 24-hour use when the weapon is fired from the shoulder or at arms length like a handgun. Special carrying devices are available for overt and discreet carry of the MP7 A1. Due to its lightweight, small size and minimal width the MP7 A1 is especially suitable for VIP protection details, pilots, drivers, guards, and support personnel who require hands-free carry of their defensive weapon while performing other tasks. Optional extended 40-round magazine 7-inch cold-hammer forged barrel with right hand twist rifling (1 turn in 6.3 inches) shown with removable flash hider.

This increases the reliability of the weapon, the service life of parts, and reduces operator cleaning time. HK416 5.56mm Carbine with 10.4 inch barrel The HK416 was developed by Heckler & Koch for US special operations forces as a major product improvement of M4/M16-type carbines and rifles. Using the HK-proprietary gas piston system found on the G36, the HK416 does not introduce propellant gases and carbon fouling back into the weapon’s interior, making it the most reliable of any M4/M16 type weapon. The HK416 has been combat-proven in Southwest Asia and has also gained the attention of military, law enforcement, and security users outside of the US. In April 2007, the HK416 was selected as the new Norwegian Army rifle. The origins of the HK416 began with the realization of the deficiencies of the direct gas impingement (gas tube) operating system found on conventional M4/M16-style weapons. Input from the users of current M4/ M16-type arms, high-speed video assessment, and extensive live-fire testing in extreme operational environments such as the U.S. Army Desert Proving Ground in Yuma, Arizona revealed multiple areas for improvement. Improvements were made to the internal operating system and miscellaneous component parts to improve reliability in best and worse case scenarios, with all types of ammunition, with all barrel lengths and with and without sound suppressors attached. An innovative free-floating 4-quadrant rail system/handguard designed by HK allows all current accessories, sights, lights, and aimers used on M4/ M16-type weapons to be fitted to the HK416. This HK rail system can be installed and removed without tools. The HK-proprietary gas system uses a piston driving an operating rod to control the function of the bolt, preventing propellant gases and the associated carbon fouling from entering the weapon’s interior. This increases the reliability of the weapon and extends the interval between stoppages. It also reduces operator cleaning time, heat transfer to the bolt and bolt carrier, and wear and tear on critical components. 14 < www.heckler-koch.com HK ergonomic pistol grip with internal storage compartment HK pictographic firing mode markings Minimum 15,000 rounds service life of all parts HK416 5.56mm Carbine with 16.5 inch barrel and installed accessories To improve reliability, service life, and operator safety during obstructed bore occurrences or after extreme extended firing sessions, the HK416 uses barrels produced by Heckler & Koch’s famous cold hammer forging process. The highest quality steel is used in this unique manufacturing process producing a barrel that provides superior accuracy for more than 20,000 rounds with minimal degradation of accuracy and muzzle velocity. HK416 variants are available with 10.4, 14.5, 16.5, and 20 inch (264, 368, 419, 508 mm) barrels. Some HK416 variants also have “OTB” (over-the-beach) capability and can be safely fired after being submerged in water and not completely drained. In addition to the improvements in the baseline weapon, HK has produced a corrosion resistant “High-Reliability” magazine and a proprietary buffer to further enhance functional reliability. An add-on single shot 40 x 46mm grenade launcher module can be quickly attached to the rail system of all models without tools. HK has applied its proven and fielded Safety Blank Firing Attachment and Live Round Excluder Magazine technology to the HK416, eliminating the possibility of live rounds being loaded into and fired through a standard issue weapon outfitted for blank firing only. “Over-the-beach” capability of the HK416 is assured by the use of a bolt that fully supports the cartridge case. HK High-Reliability Steel Magazine (fits all M16 and M4-type weapons) NSN 1005-01-520-5992 The HK High Reliability Magazine has been combat proven by U.S. Special Operations and foreign military units worldwide. Its superiority has been demonstrated by extensive testing in arctic, desert, jungle, and maritime environments. Features include a well-executed design, quality materials, a special anti-friction surface finish, advanced spring, attention to production tolerances, and a heattreated steel magazine housing and follower. For use in the most extreme environments, a special maritime coating model easily surpasses the US MIL-STD-810 E salt fog test. During this test, the HK High Reliability Magazines were exposed to a 100 hours salt fog test and then stored three days at ambient temperature. After this test procedure each magazine was fully loaded with 30 rounds and fired twice with no problems experienced. In U.S. military testing the HK High Reliability magazine improved feeding reliability of M4-type carbines by 30-50% overall.

HK-designed 5-position buttstock with battery compartments and ergonomic recoil pad Special buffer and buffer spring for reliable function Beveled magazine well for quicker magazine changes Currently Fielded The HK416 was jointly developed by U.S. military users and HK under a “no-cost” contract. The HK416 can use the same accessories, optical sights, detachable tactical lights, and laser modules commonly employed on M16 and M4-type weapons. HK416s are currently fielded in combat operations in Southwest Asia by various branches of the US military and other government agencies. HK416 Carbine & Rifle System Optional HK diopter sights (front & rear) The HK416 accepts all accessories that fit M4-type weapons, including the HK Grenade Launcher Module. A piston driven operating system is the key to the HK416’s reliability.

HK417 Carbine & Rifle System The HK417 was designed as a Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) alternative to existing, competing 7.62 x 51 mm semi-automatic and select-fire rifles, carbines, and sniper rifle systems. The .30 caliber “big brother” to the combat proven 5.56 mm HK416, the HK417 shares similar operating control locations, assembly/disassembly, and appearance to current issue M16/M4-type weapons resulting in immediate transfer of skills from one weapon system to another while retaining the already learned muscle memory critical to proficient marksmanship and operation in high stress environments. The HK417 is gas operated and uses a gas piston and a solid operating “pusher” rod in place of the common gas tube normally employed in AR15/ M16/M4-style weapons. Pioneered by Heckler & Koch in the G36 and HK416, this method virtually eliminat
