I picked up a VP9SK this past weekend. In my excitement over even finding anything on the shelf I didn't realize that how it was labeled and the pricing listed didn't really match up to what I bought.
Cabela's had it listed as a VP9SK for $649.
What I was sold was the VP9SK-B (It didn't even dawn on me when I handled the gun it didn't have the typical H&K mag release) with night sights, 13rd + 2 10 round mags. The serial number matches the serial number on the case, so I'm certain that the H&K part number is 81000293 which is supposed to be for a VP9SK-B 9mm, with one 13rd and one 10rd magazine – MSRP $749.
However, the gun I received seems to match 81000294 which their site says is for a VP9SK-B 9mm, with one 13rd, two 10rd magazine and night sights – MSRP $849
For sure it appears like they used the wrong tag on the display, I took a picture of it at the store and it said VP9SK, not the 'B' model which is limited production. $649 also seems a lot closer to the non-night sight model, and it seems misguided that they'd discount $200 off of MSRP. However, I'm surprised that H&K themselves would have the wrong model # on the box's label, I assume manufactures would QA anything associated with firearm paperwork, but maybe I'm wrong and this is more common?
