Description
Before Glock, there was the HK VP70.
Introduced in 1970, the Heckler & Koch VP70 was the world’s first production pistol with a polymer frame. Take a look inside its unusual design: a fixed barrel, simple blowback action, an eighteen-round magazine, and a famously heavy trigger pull.
Discover how the military VP70M’s detachable shoulder stock enabled three-round bursts — and why this pistol holds a special place in firearms history.
All mechanisms are visualized in World of Guns: Gun Disassembly.
What surprises you more — the early polymer frame or the burst-fire stock?
