The fire rate was key here in this test. Heat is what killed it. None of his other torture tests had this kind of fire rate. It was regularly fired until it was too hot to touch. Absolutely brutal. He also mentions of those 13 stoppages, 7 were in the beginning due to an out of spec mainspring which was then replaced, 3 were at the end due to a piece of the frame being broken off. So that leaves 3 stoppages averaging 27,000 rounds per stoppage. Who knows how long it would have lasted without the heat factor. Crazy reliability.

P2000 v3 9mm and P30 v3 9mm are my main squeezes… I’m in awe of their reliability, accuracy/precision. I’ve added the nickel springs and reduced power fpbs and in the p2k the blue hammer spring. Never had a single malfunction. P2k has over 5k rounds. P30 approaching 1k rounds. All are lubed up as needed, cleaned when I think about it. Simply put… These are the guns that I will take into the worst of the worst. My Glocks, while second in line are available IF the HK’s puke.
As an FYI… took me awhile to get use to the HK v3 trigger system. Now I’ve got it figured out I like it. To someone new to HK… you’re going to hate the trigger. Give it time, dri fire the crap out of it. Practice… it’ll grow on you.

Agree completely. No one, not even the military / LE / SWAT, needs a handgun to fire that fast in an operational scenario.
I'm sure it would still be going if they didn't beat TFO of it.
P30 is a great handgun and I enjoyed mine, but sold it and went Glock for a number of reasons - mainly (at the time), HK didn't make a good carry gun for me. P30 was too big, P2000 was ok but big for it's capacity, and the P2000SK was ok to carry but the grip length was annoying just a bit to small and the magazines with the finger / pinky lip were just the wrong size. I carried it with flat base magazines but compared to a G19, it just didn't make sense after awhile.
Again, all before the VP9, P2000SK, and whatever else HK is up to these days.
I carried the P30 for awhile. Still do. Never really had a problem or thought it was too big although I do understand why others do. I'm not a big guy either, though waistline and build is a more important factor.
I also carry a VP9SK and see how a smaller height with shorter grip length helps concealment. Length, not so much.
If anyone is looking for a P30, the LE version is on sale for $599.62 (unheard of price) comes with 3 mags and night sights

*edit - no $100 HK webshop credit like I previously stated - only VP9 has it.*

I don't know anything about the P30, never even shot one. Handled it once or twice. Today at the gun store I handled one to see what it's about. The single action trigger was pretty decent, i could live with it. The DA was very heavy, felt heavier than a stock Beretta 92 DA pull. But the gun felt good in my hand, the grip fitted perfectly, even the DA trigger reach was manageable. The decocker at the back of the slide would take a lot of time to get used to.
Riots are like sports, it's better to watch it on TV at home.
It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.
