Very few know the true origin of the polymer frame striker fired pistol. This pistol was lost in history to be overshadowed by the Glock pistol. There is no question Glock brought the polymer frame pistol to the mainstream and gave it its legendary status.

Shown is the VP9 tactical with a Silencerco octane suppressor. Modern technology with just a little history.
