Heckler & Koch is also introducing several new firearms at SHOT Show 2015 (http://gunlink.info/forums/index.php?topic=1379.0).

Their new VP9 striker-fired pistol will be on display at Range Day as well as in their show booth.  VP of commercial and LE sales Mike Holley says of the pistol:  "Heckler and Koch is always concentrating on quality and our pistol line is now getting the kind of recognition it deserves. The recently introduced striker fired VP9 has been a tremendous success and adding new models to the HK45 and USP series highlights our pistol-centric direction."

"What new USP?", you ask?  This one:

An enhanced version of the USP, the USP9 Tactical brings all of HK's tactical pistol features to the 9 mm model for the first time ever, including a threaded barrel with an O-ring, match trigger with adjustable trigger stop, adjustable target sights, and a control lever function that can be switched to either side of the pistol to accommodate both right and left handed shooters.  Like all full size HK USPs, the 9 mm Tactical uses a modified Browning type action with a patented recoil reduction system which helps to  mitigate recoil effects on the pistol components and also lowers recoil forces felt by the shooter.
 
The focus isn't entirely on pistols either.

After production shortfalls in 2015, the previously announced MR556A1 Competition Modelis now shipping.  The Competition Model is a customized version of HK's semi-automatic version of the company's legendary OBL-aproved HK416 carbine.
 
With an eye on the 3-gun competition market, the rifle is equipped with the extended 14-inch HK hand guard, a Magpul CTR buttstock, an advanced compensator developed by Operators Suppressor Systems and a larger magazine release.
