(or how to interpret HK's codes and other arcane details) Jump to date codes. HK developed a series of codes to help identify their military/law enforcement firearms. Using their 2 number codes, it is possible to identify the type of firearm (belt-fed machinegun, submachinegun, etc) and the caliber. Here is how the code system breaks out.

The P7M13 is a 9mm pistol similar tothe P7M8 except it has a double-stack Magazine that holds 13rounds. This gives it a wider grip similar to the P7M10.

Further manufacture of the 13 round magazinesis banned in the USA. The P7M10 magazine is still legal to manufactureand is almost identical. It can be used in the P7M13 filledwith 13 rounds of 9mm vs. the 10 rounds of .40 SW it is designed for.

The M13 debuted in 1982 with prototypeserial numbers from 001 to 059. Production serial numbers as of January,1993 run from 71101 M13 to 89600 M13. The P7M13 is still in productionas of 3/00, but US sales are limited to law enforcement only due to themagazine capacity.

The P7M13 has a gas-retarded action anda polygon bore barrel.

First, some images of standard P7M13's

In 1983, H&K designed a variant forthe Mexican Government, who had asked for an external safety. Itwas designed with an external sliding safety on the right side of the frameas shown below. Sliding it to the rear revealed a white 0. Sliding it forward covered the 0 and left the red 1 visible. The DIM on the left grip panel stands for 'Depto. Ind.Mil',and is stamped on the left side of the slide as well. The serialseries for this version was 10000 to 13000.

HK developed a series of codes to help identify their military/law enforcement firearms. Using their 2 number codes, it is possible to identify the type of firearm (belt-fed machinegun, submachinegun, etc) and the caliber. Here is how the code system breaks out:

Naturally, there are combos of the first and second number that (as much as we might want one) would produce an HK firearm model number that doesn't (or won't ever) exist. For example: the HK59, the BIG brother of the MP5.... :-)

There have been model number changes over the years, most notably the models 91 and 93. They were originally imported as the 41 and 43, respectively, and if you look at the coding, you'll see they are identified as 'Paramilitary' rifles -- which to this day I maintain that they are. They are not 'Assault Rifles' (which is a media term).

HK Date Codes

Date codes are the next thing that cause a little confusion for new HK owners. Like the model numbering scheme, the date codes are a 2 letter code and indicate the year of manufacture:

Therefore, if your HK91 shows a date code of IH, it was made in 1987. Pretty simple.

Now that we have that squared away, I have to note that it appears that HK has changed their date coding for post-ban LE/military magazines, and there hasn't been any definitive documentation to indicate what this is.
