Sharp 1991 Heckler & Koch H&K Model P7M13 Double Stack 9mm 4" Squeeze Cocker Pistol & CaseOur Assessment: The decision to equip West German police with an advanced 9mm service pistol and replace existing 7.65mm Browning-caliber weapons was prompted after the 1972 Munich Olympics Massacre. The new firearm was to meet the following requirements: chamber the 9×19mm Parabellum cartridge, weigh no more than 1,000 g (35 oz), the pistol's dimensions would not exceed 180 × 130 × 34 mm, it should have a muzzle energy of no less than 500 J and a service life of at least 10,000-rounds. The pistol was also to be fully ambidextrous, safe to carry with a loaded chamber and able to be quickly drawn and ready to fire instantly. As a result of a competitive bid the German police forces selected three different pistols into service: the Swiss SIG Sauer P225 (designated the P6) and two German designs—the P7 (officially designated the PSP) and the Walther P5. Series production of the P7 started in 1979. Shortly after, the pistol was introduced in a higher capacity, double-stack frame, just in time to be submitted to the US Army trials to replace the 1911. Though the trial ultimately resulted in the adoption of the M9 from Beretta, the P7M13 is still considered by some to be the best version of the P7 series. This pistol was made in 1991 and is in excellent condition. The polygonal rifling is still strong with no erosion and the pistol has a superb trigger pull that is initiated by squeezing the fore grip of the grip frame. Its finish has only the slightest of wear and it appears this pistol was used seldom if at all. It comes with A serial numbered matching case, cleaning rod in its protective sheath, gas cylinder cleaning tool, two 13-round magazines, serial matching test target, and a manual. Please see our pictures and good luck!
