Eww, yuck, a striker fired gun.
I love HK handguns (I have 7), but I dislike striker fired guns. If it does not have a hammer on it, I do not want it.
I would much rather they have showed the P30 some love with new models and a threaded barrel from the factory. (yes you can buy a threaded barrel, but you can not get one from the factory).
My EDC is a P30SK and I absolutely love it. Fits my hand like a glove, shoots wonderfully, and is very accurate for its size.

I've been thinking how to answer this by describing real life women around me who I find incredibly attractive and who are totally different in their faces, bodies, and demeanors but I'm failing to find the words.
Yes, you're supposed to think that HK is a good looking gun because it is. Glocks look great too.
I think p365 is a great shooter.
I always thought it was too tall for a subcompact.

Ah, maybe that's why. I always thought that SK meant subcompact, seeing that compact in German starts with k.
I don’t know- you are right folk all want to call it a sub compact and fall over themselves to explain away how it’s larger than one lol.
It is a solid compact gun which honestly shoots like a full size.
I have absolute confidence in these and find them easy to shoot well.
I shoot with the pinky do dad on the mags but this is the gun with flush magazine.
Great guns.
Among my favorite’s.

These are much larger guns than say the p365 and shoot like they are.

But if it were, it would be too tall.

Has there ever been a good looking polymer gun?
They are all boxy and ugly.
Kygunco got me for one of their factory blem HK P30s that had a few days back. It's a 17 round 9mm that has a barrel less than 4", but some of the leather cookie cutter holsters that fit it from the likes of Galco also fit a 4" XD .45. It seems that not only are the ugly, but they are oversized for a 9mm.
Some are, but some are not. Besides, polymer handguns are for utility purposes and that is where they leave older metal handguns in the dust for reliabilty and durability. But then again, you knew that.
I like the way you think. I'm a 1911 diehard, don't like plastic and have no use for striker systems, but broke down and bought a USP45T...friggin love it to the point I'll carry it if I have to go to high crime cities since it feels lighter with 1 spare over a 1911 with 2 spares to match capacity. It feels like a 9 instead of a 45 and the match trigger is better than some 1911s I've had to fix.
HK says it is. Once again, @YVK is correct, on both counts (they call it a subcompact, but it’s arguably too tall to be a subcompact)
Hk started this mess..

I don't know where you're getting that from. The VP9SK is definitely classified as a "sub-kompact."

I did not know which way to take this thread further. One direction could've been to invite @Archer, @Boge, @fnfalman, @Hammer67, and @trbnt (I hope you all appreciate my effort for alphabetical listing) to form a task force on gun sizes definition. So we can submit it to Merriam Webster. The second option was to keep talking about this gen 2 VP9s, for example, how meh the new basepads fit vs gen 1 VP9

Instead, I'd just say this: after playing for 10 min with VP9 and VP9-B at my LGS today, I really hope that A1s do have button versions.
VP9A1 K - HK USA
With the new HK VP9A1, the best pistols (and the best shooters) get even better. The VP9’s well-deserved reputation for being a handgun that actually helps people shoot better is backed by numerous reports from law enforcement of qualifying scores improving significantly after adopting it. All...

The VP40 is the .40 S&W model of the acclaimed VP pistol line first introduced in 2014 with the VP9 (9 mm). In development for more than four years, the VP Series is Heckler & Koch’s latest handgun and the first striker fired HK since the renowned P7 series pistols…
