HK Tactical

Originally developed for the U.S. militarys next generation handgun competition the new HK45 Tactical comes standard with a threaded barrel and supressor sights. With a choice of three frame colors (green, tan, or black), the full-size HK45 Tactical (HK45T) model uses an ergonomic grip design that includes changeable backstraps together with molded finger grooves that instinctively position an operators hand for optimum shooting. All HK45 pistol series (compact, full-size, Tactical models) are made at HKs American manufacturing facility in New Hampshire using American and German components. The HK45 Tactical uses a 10-round steel magazine and has a Picatinny MIL-STD -1913 rail molded into its polymer frame for mounting lights and accessories. The HK45 Tactical has a proprietary internal mechanical recoil reduction system that employs a flat recoil spring in tandem with a polymer bushing sleeve to reduce the recoil forces effecting the operator and the weapon, improving shooter control during rapid firing and prolonging component service life. An O-ring on the threaded barrel means better slide-to-barrel lockup and enhanced accuracy. Covered by Heckler & Kochs limited lifetime warranty, the HK45T is a robust design engineered with the famous long-term durability that make HK products especially cost-effective when subjected to total life cycle cost analysis. The patented HK Lock-Out system allows the operator to discreetly lock the pistol by inserting a pronged key into the magazine well and turning a control plate that blocks any movement of the slide, hammer, and the trigger. The HK45T can be converted to nine different kinds of trigger firing modes including HKs enhanced double action only LEM (Law Enforcement Modification) mode. The HK45T is well-suited for military, law enforcement, security use, and civilian sport shooting.
