Scroll down to see all the HK VP9 holster models holsters we offer That pistol debuted in 1970, and was called the VP70. While the Volskpistole concept never really materialized during that time period, it did give rise to a conceptual pistol for one H&K design engineer, who wanted to incorporate a polymer compound as a frame material to reduce costs and weight. This vernacular comes from the WWII (1940’s) era when Germany was running low on weapons and German engineers were asked with designing a less expensive, but effective firearm that could be quickly mass produced. The “VP” designation in the name loosely is short for “Volkspistole” and it loosely translates to “people’s pistol”. The H&K VP9 pistol was introduced by H&K (Heckler and Koch) in 2014, and was designed to be a more budget friendly striker fired version of the popular H&K P30.
