The HK "P Series" includes the P2000, P2000SK (Subcompact), P30, and P30L; all major
handgun models recently developed by Heckler & Koch.
The P2000 and P2000SK (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 P2000SK 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 (LEM) trigger system, also known as the Combat
Defense Action system in Europe, 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 P2000 and P2000SK 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 P2000SK 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/P2000SK models to be
custom-fitted to any shooter’s hand. An ambidextrous magazine release and dual slide
release levers make handling P2000/P2000SK pistols natural and easy for right and left-
handed shooters alike.
The addition of “industry standard” mounting rails to the P2000 and P2000SK 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 P2000SK for added firepower, but extend pass the
grip.
Like the P2000 and P2000SK, the P30 and P30L (Long Slide) are modern police and
security pistols that combines function and safety. Ergonomic features includes a special
frame with interchangeable backstraps inserts and lateral grip panels (lateral plates),
allowing the pistol to be individually adapted to any user.
Multiple trigger firing modes include the Law Enforcement Modification (LEM) enhanced
double action covered previously and a conventional double-action/single-action
(DA/SA) with a serrated decocking button located on the rear of the frame. A conventional
safety lever in also present on the frame of the P30S (for safety) and P30LS. Other
ambidextrous controls include dual slide 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 and a double action hammer with a firing pin block
safety that eliminates the need for a manual safety. Extensively tested, the P30and P30L
have already been adopted by several European police agencies. Excellent weight and
balance make all P30 models naturally pointable, easy to control, and accurate to shoot.
