This product came as advertised. It was very difficult to contact someone to make a payment. It took an extra week to facilitate payment. I do like buds gun shop but the price matching button did not work and I overpaid for the gun a little. I am happy with the gun just wish the start to finish process was a little smoother.

One of HK’s best .45 pistols and my favorite CCW firearm. V7 is one of the best examples of the LEM trigger variant in modern HK pistols as well. It doesn’t have a super incredibly “light” double action leading up to the wall, but it gives you just enough resistant to offer safety and still be able to pull off accurate shots, quickly... the reset is fairly short and that aids in getting shots on target fast if you are good at mitigating it’s recoil, which isn’t substantial, but good for .45 in the size format of a glock 19 basically. It’s just loaded with so many features that give it more accuracy and reliability than just about anything in it’s class. Don’t let the capacity bother you too much. It did me in the beginning but I quickly got over it after handling it eat the range a number of times and dry firing it countless times. It feels great, even without the fantastic grips found in it’s full size counterpart.

I love this pistol! Yes it is expensive, but as a carry weapon isn't your life worth it? It is more accurate than I will ever be and it always runs. In a self defense situation isn't that all you need? I was concerned about recoil since it is a compact 45, but it's really not bad at all. Buds shipped very very fast on this one which I am very grateful about. In fact my FFL had it before I knew it had shipped! Jim
