HK P30SK mini range report.

[Justin///M]

Picked up my HK P30SK V1 yesterday, and immediately went to the range to sling some lead. My pictures aren't very good, but it is just a mini version of my P30, which was to be expected. It doesn't give up any thickness, though, so it's still a double stack subcompact and may not be ideal for some people.

The gun functioned flawlessly out of the box with the 200 rounds that I fired. I had the guy that I bought it from install some night sights and they were very well set.

The gun doesn't recoil any more than its big brother, and the "ergonomic" grip make handling the sub-compact a breeze. The trigger is the same light LEM trigger that I have in my full size, and it was smooth with a short reset. This trigger may make some nervous about carrying on a loaded chamber, so you can get a heavier LEM (V2) or their DA/SA with decocker and safety (V3).

It does accept my full size P30 mags with no issues, so by carrying this gun, I'm giving up only 5 rounds if I carry a full size mag as the spare.

Speaking of carrying, after the range, I went and tooled around the Strip District for a few hours, and this thing carries much nicer than the full size, for me. The full size often sagged my pants and since I'm on the last notch of my beltman belt (going the right way), it was a struggle to carry it from day to day. The SK, however, no issues. It rode perfectly and concealed much better for me. I couldn't be happier.

I can now retire the Kahr CM9 to limited pocket use only, and carry the SK most other times.

First 10 rounds at 10 yards.




It comes with your standard HK accessories.





Brothers in arms.





This sucks for showing the size difference, but you get the idea.

Looks nice! If you weren't on the opposite side of the state, I'd love to get together and do a comparison between your P30SK and my P2000SK... oh well!

Awesome and congrats. I'm anxiously waiting for my LE Package to come in (v1 with night sights and 3 mags). Only thing I would mention is that the v2, or heavy LEM as some call it, is not available as a stock option. You have to buy the heavier TRS and install it or have it installed. I'm going the same way you did though p30 v1 (winter carry) and now a soon to be had p30sk v1 (summer carry).

Good point on the "V2," thank you.

That's a few dineros sitting there. Congrats on the new HK. Nice looking pair.

Congrats on the new acquisition ! I've really been wanting one of these, as I love my P30. Here is a good review of it also.

That is some mighty fine shooting there!

I have a P30 and love it and am thinking about buying a P30SK. Does the SK fit in your P30 holsters or were you able to find holster(s) for the SK?

It does fit my P30 holsters, and I've had no luck finding SK specific holsters, yet. I've read that they'll fit the P2000SK holsters too.

Thanks, Justin. Just FYI...I just rechecked Crossbreed's website and they do list a Supertuck Deluxe (but not Minituck) for the SK. They didn't show one last week. I'm just wondering if it's the same shell as the standard P30.
