I am about to make my first pistol purchase in a while. I am down to the SIG P320 or the HK VP9, all in 9mm.

Here's my dilemma. I am a fan of both brands, but the only SIG I currently own is my P938, which is a great pistol, but obviously cannot share magazines with a 320. On the other hand, the VP9 offers magazine compatibility my 2000sk and P30L.

EDIT: It's HK offering the the 4 free mags, not SIG.

Personal brand loyalties aside, what would you all do?



.

I would buy whatever gun I prefer and buy mags as needed. Mags are small and easy to take along, don't encumber yourself with insignificant things.

VP 9's also have a 4 mag promo. check the HK site

Please provide some details on this magazine offer from Sig. I haven't heard of it and just bought a 320.

It's only HK as far as I know. I made that point from memory and got it backward.

It's only HK. My mistake.

The HK deal is hard to pass up and the VP9 is a great pistol.

I think you're right. Combined with the mag compatibility, I think I just made up my. mind.

I appreciate everyone's input.

Thanks, guys.

That's the right choice in my opinion. Just too many advantages to stay with the HK set. Now, if you would have had a 250 also I would have said go with the 320.

I've shot both. I prefer the VP9. You really need to handle both and shot then if you can. Both are top examples of modern strikers.

both are great guns, but hard to pass up 4 free mags. I agree I wouldn't buy a gun purely because you get free mags, but both guns are great quality firearms and 4 $30-40 mags free is a fantastic deal

If sig had a 4 free mag deal and HK didn't I would say get the Sig.... to me if you compare 2 equal quality firearms and roughly the same price you should go with whatever one gives you the most free stuff

That is, of course, if you like the feeling of both firearms in your hand, because ultimately that's the most important thing next to reliability.

How do you like your P30L ?

I prefer the VP9 over the 320. As soon as the long slide version comes out I will have one of those also

VP9 for me, the 320 just doesn't feel right. And the VP was my first HK.

I own both and would not hesitate choosing the VP9 over the 320 each and every time, extra free mags or not. For me it's the better gun, but as typically the case YMMV. The mag deal is icing on the proverbial cake.

<<<-------No Compromise.

I'm lovin' the Veep. It's become my go-to pistol for bumps in the night, and fits neatly under a pillow at night. And you can't argue with HK quality.

It's a great gun. I enjoy shooting it.

Neither. Buy a CZ P10C. I shot one vs a P320 and a VP9 I owned and for me the CZ was the winner.

I wouldn't buy a gun just to get free magazines either but if that kind of thing floats your boat, FN is offering three free magazines (till 8/31) with the purchase of an FN509
