Those are really good looking guns.
What is the deal with the P7 guns? As there seams to be a bit of a cult following the P7. Sorry if I am sounding ignorant about it.

I have always wanted one. Yes there seems to be a cult following.
It is a fixed barrel gas operated pistol It has no saftey. The pistol is carried with one round in the camber, but not cocked. As you draw the weapon you sqeeze the cocking handle (about 12lbs of pressure to cock, but 1.5 lbs to keep it squeezed) you can fire the weapon then in Single action mode from then on. This one is 8 round mag with one in the chamber. It has a heel mag release. About 5 years ago the german police turned in theses p7 psp (police service pistol) to HK, HK then graded them on quality of the internals. IE A,B,C, you could have an AS new "a" grade gun with holster wear, Or B/C grade gun that was shot quite a bit but with no holster wear. One of the often lauded things of this pistol is that its grip angle is at 110 degrees. So when you draw the pistol and have your index finger along side the frame your eyes will sight right where your finger points. In addition the barrel is on cm up and to the left give or take a few mm. It is by far the lowest bore axis i have ever seen. Anyways supposedly this combined with the gas operation makes a very light recoil pistol that is quick on target and nearly as quick for follow ups. It is reported to be an excellent pistol for small groups owing to the above factors and its polygonal bore. how much of that do i believe? I don't know. I shoot well with many pistols i will see how accurate this is in the weeks to come. This one had the slide and frame refinished in black teflon over at mitch's shop here in ct.

Thanks for the explanation Grouse.
I see now why it is sought after. I have been thinking of selling my Guardian 9mm and getting a really nice Hi Power but now I my look at the P7. Thanks again.
