So I was browsing over on the HK international site and I found this.

Interesting...I'm guessing it's not also an additional decocker. Wonder if we'll see it over here. Cocked and locked would be a good option for this gun in my (meaningless) opinion.

Are they available in a LEM version? The HK45 and P30 levers suck. They're right where my thumbs need to be.

Yes the LEM trigger is now available on the P30.

If H&K imports that variation into the US I'm getting one!

Seems a little redundant with two functional decockers.

The safety levers may not be decocker's. I don't think they would double up the decocker. If they bring it to the US, I'll buy a pair of P30L's. This is the gun I've been waiting for, hopefully older models will be able to retrofit the safety, which would make my day. I already have a P30 and P30L, and I'm thinking about a LEM model. The P30 for me has became my #1 shooter, edging out my Glocks(except the 19).

That will seal the deal for me. I have been putting off buying a P30 because I don't like pure DA/SA as much as C&L. Import these and I will buy one H&K.

I was dead set on an M&P 9 but if I can have a P30 with the exact setup I have on my HK45 I might just go for it.

Outstanding. The DA pull on the P30 is utterly dreadful. Having Cocked and Locked would be great for an SA first shot.

Count me in!

Yeah same here Greg. If these become available I may have to give the P30 another shot.

I freaking knew it.

Just as I've bought 2 more p30's..........

ETA will they sell us just the ambi levers and the needed internals?

Think this version will come with some kind of "match" sear?

With regard to retrofitting the DAO combat competition trigger/LEM models does the frame/slide not need to be notched to accept the safety/decocker. I was under the impression that was the case?

Does anyone even know if you can get your thumb on top of that safety while firing? It looks to be pretty far to the back for that. If it works like a 1911, then this is the pistol for me, if not, I'll be back to considering between the P30V1 and the M&P9.

I agree. That's one of the reasons I got rid of my USPs many moons ago. C&L is the way to go with H&K autos, IMO.

It's about time!

This is the setup the P30 has been waiting for, IMO.

The location of the safety levers does not look very useable. Handling my P30 suggests that my thumbs will go right under those levers; not on top. The slide release levers do appear to be closer to the original P2000 style, though.

Variablebinary, I have found the DA triggers on HK's P2000s and P30s to be very good. Like anything else they require some break-in, which is all too easy with proper dry fire. However, I have encountered a batch of P30s that were strangely equipped with the heavier firing pin block safety springs, presumably intended for the LEM pistols, that increases trigger stacking unacceptably. Mine was so equipped, but an easy swap with the standard V3 spring remedied that. My DA trigger is as good as anything I've encountered on my SIGs and other traditional DA pistols.

A P30 in LEM would be the cat's meow, so methinks.
