The P8A1 pistol is the standard sidearm of the German Armed Forces or Bundeswehr. Based on the HK USP(Universal Self-loading Pistol) handgun, which was adopted by the Bundeswehr in 1994.The P8A1 has a unique configuration specifically for the Bundeswher. These features include translucent magazines; traditional lands-and-grooves barrel instead of a polygonal barrel; a reversed safety/decocker lever (down indicates "safe" and up indicates "fire", the opposite of the standard USP) and the "S" and "F" letters are printed on the frame instead of on the lever. Includes an authenticity certificate and two 15rd magazines.
