Product Overview
DPM Telescopic Recoil Reduction System | H&K VP9SK (Compact)
Overview: The DPM Telescopic Recoil Reduction System is a drop-in replacement guide rod engineered specifically for the Heckler & Koch VP9SK compact pistol. Using an aligned multi-spring telescopic rod (three springs) the system smooths slide travel by gradually compressing springs during cycling so the slide never slams the frame. It’s ideal for shooters who want reduced felt recoil, improved follow-up speed, and more reliable cycling in subcompact pistols.
Compatibility
- Direct fit for: H&K VP9SK (compact).
- Direct replacement; no permanent modifications required.
What’s Included
- 1 × DPM Telescopic Recoil Reduction Rod (drop-in)
- 3 × External springs (short / medium / long - different power rates)
- Installation instructions
How It Works
The telescopic rod contains three springs aligned so they compress progressively during slide travel. This creates an elastic buffer effect: reduced peak impact at the end of travel, smoother slide deceleration, and improved timing all while maintaining reliable cycling.
Power Rates (Slide in Battery)
- Short spring: 10 lbs
- Medium spring: 11.5 lbs
- Long spring: 13 lbs
Slide full open position (total, approx.): 22 lbs
Benefits & Advantages
- Faster follow-up shots — improved sight recovery and timing.
- Reduced felt recoil — smoother recoil impulse for better control.
- Slide & frame protection — buffering reduces hard impacts to the frame.
- Improved reliability — minimizes jams and failure-to-feed in many setups.
- Fine-tuneable — use different external springs to tune the system for ammo and shooter preference.
- Lifetime Warranty — manufacturer's coverage where applicable.
Installation & Tuning Tips
- Follow the included installation instructions carefully and confirm the pistol is unloaded and safe before starting.
- Begin testing with the factory/medium spring setting then work up or down to match your ammunition and any compensator/porting setup.
- If you run aftermarket modifications (threaded barrels, slide work, compensators, suppressors), contact the manufacturer or retailer prior to purchase to confirm compatibility or needed custom configuration.
