  HK P7 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Heckler and Koch P7 is a compact semi-automatic pistol normally chambered in 9 x 19 mm Luger manufactured by the German company of Heckler and Koch.
The P7 was one of the pistols selected for the United States Army trials to find a new service pistol to replace the M1911; it was eliminated early in the competition for not meeting specifications.
Although there have been several incidents of police officers losing custody of their P7 handguns during scuffles, Massad Ayoob asserts that there has never been a case of a so-disarmed officer being shot with his own weapon, due to the proprietary nature of the "squeeze-cocker".

 HK P7
Indeed, Massad Ayoob once stated that the P7 he lent to students of his shooting school 15 or so years ago was the most reliable auto pistol he had ever encountered to date, digesting some 4000 rounds before requiring the gas cylinder to be cleaned due to slow cycling and finally, stoppages.
The P7 has several "issues" besides the 9mm cartridge’s power, and those include the gas cylinder transferring heat to the inside of the trigger guard after about 35 rapid shots causing the need for the average shooter to let it cool, as well as the cleaning of the sharply ridged piston and its cylinder.
HK does offer three different front sight heights to regulate elevation, and the relatively clean single action trigger system means you aren’t fighting a heavy, creepy pull, and the pistol essentially becomes a paperweight the moment it leaves your hand.
