HK P2000sk 40S&W

[Dstewart73]

Okay I know there will be a lot of naysayers.
My 21 year old HK 40 P2000sk now has new life. I bought a new 9mm barrel from HK for my P2000sk. Asked about changing the springs but was told no need to do that.
Installed the barrel and loaded up my .40 cal mags with 9mm. Off to the range. 107 rounds fired without a problem of any kind. Needless to say I am elated to now have a weapon I can shoot 40 or 9mm through.

Nice to know. I have the 357sig barrel for my .40 P2000. It's useless as I can't find ammo reasonably priced. I was under the impression you had to change springs etc to run 9mm. I'm on the hunt for a 9mm barrel now. Thanks

The no spring change is pretty interesting.

How is the ejection on it?

HK rep said they use the same springs. Mine worked flawlessly.
I forgot how much I like the “lem” trigger.

I never noticed so it must be fine.

It's only fun if you can find the ammo

357 sig is available all over the place. Just depends on your price per round cut off and everyone has a different line in the sand.

Q: How did you get 9mm to stay in the .40 caliber magazines...? If anything, I would recommend using 9mm magazines so as to avoid failure-to-feed and stove-pipe jams.
In Glocks...I've always used the same spring for 9mm, .40 S&W, and .357SIG...never had an ejection issue!

I tend to buy online and have found that gun broker tends to offer a variety of .357SIG.
I've used Buffalo Bore ammo for many applications as well...
Over the past several years, I've leaned more towards http://www.littlestonesrus.com/ and have found their reloading program to be excellent, cost-wise.

My favorite ammo has always been CorBon ammo...it's a bit salty though.

I have the same P2000sk in 9mm. I'm still not totally sold on the LEM, but it is a good gun.

The 40 mag and 9 mag are the same dimensions. The only slight difference is opening for the bullet is a tad wider. Doesn’t seem to bother the function. Shot another 100 rounds of different defense ammo today without a hiccup.

Same here... tried lem, light lem and went back to da/sa. I did change out the springs though which made a slight difference. Ymmv.
