I spoke to HK CS today about a particular issue and gleaned the following in casual off-the-topic conversation:

1. HK is working diligently on introducing a P30 in .40

2. This isn't news but an affirmation of what others have reported: the HK45 Tactical series is on the backburner and down on the priorities list in deference to the MR rifle series and the expansion of the P30 family.

3. HK is using the newly-introduced Meprolight night sights as factory-issue for the HK45 and p30 series. They are about 1 month away from accepting delivery from Meprolight.

I don't know anything else beyond the above.

inline for a P30 with true night sight in .40 and LEM

Does that mean the new P30s will be made in the US, or that they will be made in Germany, then have the tritium night sights installed in the US?

This is entirely speculation, but it seems to me that HK is targeting the U.S. LE market with the .40 S&W P30. As such, I wouldn't be surprised to see U.S. production of the P30 .40. I suspect that any gun produced in the U.S. facility will come equipped with the Meps.

interesting... I might just tell my "guy" that I'll take the first mepro-equipped P30L he gets... have him send it right out for a trigger job...

I would love to see a P30L in 40. The night sights are a very nice touch too.

+1 for the .40 P30L with Meps. I would think that this combo would be a hot seller!

I think 15rd mags for the HK45 would be the best news!

Thanks for the info. I also would like to see the P30 in a 40. And Bigash I agree I would get a few HK45 15 round mags. I would even take a 12 round mag

thanks for the update. HK45 tactical would be sweet, hopefully one of these days.

Anybody get wind of a BUG from HK? Say, in a 380 caliber? (Seems to be all the rage nowadays.)

P30 in a .40 ehh. Guess I'd better start saving now.

how much smaller than a P2000sk in 9mm do you need.. Besides I'm not a big fan of .380 and other calibers of the sort......

LCS: I was talking about something that would fit comfortably in a pocket - along the size of a LCP, P3AT, P380, LWS380, etc.

+1 for proper P30 night sights.
