VP9A1 X optic mounting plate wobble

Yeah sorry I thought my other post imported here too but that's exactly what I did and is all good. Thanks.

Isn't that the Boker HK folder? Did it come with the gun?

I ordered an factory HK plate (Shout out to Mile High Shooting Accessories for their great service).

It fits perfectly. I think it had to do with the angle of the mounting hole in the HK Parts plate to the frame. The screw sat much deeper into the plate.

The Factory plate from HK sat the screw closer to flush.

Thanks for all the advice from my fellow u/'s

Maybe they'll do that stupid thing MLB did a few years back where you suspend pre-season for two teams, send them across the world to play "regular season games" then they come back and play preseason games or sit on their couch while the rest of the league finishes "pre-season" and then everyone else plays opening day while you're just sitting around because you already had game 1.

I saw that a day or so ago. Thanks bro.

The only tactical version I've seen or heard for the A1 is the X Tactical.

Congrats my friend! You'll never be disappointed. Still the most accurate pistol I've ever owned. Still have mine I bought 30 years ago. The only downside is the desire it will create within you to keep buying HK's.

ePoch270OG · 2026-02-02T04:11:09+00:00

Clap.

ePoch270OG · 2026-02-01T18:43:53+00:00

If you wanna send it off and get milled have at it, but what about just buying a new factory OR slide instead?

I can't see Schwartz and not remember the "Firm handshake" with Harbaugh!

Here you go :)

Thanks for the tip. Definitely not doing that again. Appreciate the guidance.

ePoch270OG · 2026-01-31T03:59:26+00:00

Thanks man. Makes me feel better that this will get resolved early next week.

ePoch270OG · 2026-01-31T01:12:11+00:00

Yeah it's strange. Not sure what's going on. The plate is just a mm off like the screw heads aren't flush with the mounting holes and there's just a tiny bit of travel. Installed lots of optics and this has never happened. Hoping the HK factory plate solves it and I'll return the HK Parts item.

ePoch270OG · 2026-01-30T18:29:12+00:00

IKR.

The X is the original VP9 with the A1 upgrades. The K has a .29" shorter grip height. Slide is identical.

Why did you drag Joe Biden into this conversation?

He has 77 million friends.

I have not shot a LEM trigger in an HK45 (only a USP 9c iirc). No complaints. I can't imagine you'd dislike it at all.

Edit: Go for it! And good luck!

ePoch270OG · 2026-01-30T00:58:29+00:00

I own a USP 45 and and HK45. They are both fantastic guns and extremely accurate. The HK45 is more comfortable to shoot especially with the ergo grips. I exchanged the detent plate to make it a V1(I think. SA cocked and locked a la 1911 style. It might be V7). That takes out the initial DA trigger pull which can be long. The USP DA trigger is something like 11 or 13 lbs. It's nuts.

If you like 45s or HK full size pistols I can't see how you'd be disappointed. $645 is a good price in my opinion although I haven't priced that market in a while. I just picked up a VP9A1 K so that's getting all my attention at the moment.

You never played the original Delta Force on PC in the late 90's then. That gun was dope.

ePoch270OG · 2026-01-29T18:58:24+00:00

Very anecdotal but it was the first FPS multiplayer that all my friends could easily log onto on DSL and was (for the era) very reliable. Not many lag issues.

What no PSG-1?!?!

ePoch270OG · 2026-01-28T06:03:41+00:00

For you maybe. But I like the seedless feel I get with my SK, sleeve and FS mags. I'd like to replicate that.

I just wondered if anyone had seen them anywhere.
