My girlfriend said my vp9sk hurt her hands.
I have a VP9SK as well. Its my first firearm and I absolutely LOVE it, It is worth every dime I paid, Its super easy to clean, the grip can be customized to your preference with the pieces supplied, it feels nice in the hand. Mine has the paddle magazine release and is easy to access with the strong hand middle finger while keeping your trigger finger in a safe position. Ive now shot about 400 rounds (some which were nasty, dirty range rounds) with no issues. I considered trying some other guns out for fun but, honestly, I love my pistol so much I just haven’t, I did shoot a Glock 19, 43X and a Walther PPQM2 before shooting the VP9SK. There closest was the Walther(20 rounds), but I had a double feed with it and didnt want a carry pistol that had that doubt in my mind, I shot 25 rounds that day with the same ammo in the Vp9Sk with no issues. And, again, was grinning when I left the range.
