Heckler & Koch P7M13

Finish	Caliber(s)	Mag. Cap.	Barrel Length	Overall Length	Height	Width Across Grips	Weight w/o Magazine	Sight Radius
Blue, Nickel	9 x 19mm	13	4.13"	6.90"	5.30"	1.30"	1.87 lbs.	5.83"

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

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

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

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

First, some images of standard P7M13's

Serial Number 001!  (above)

In 1983, H&K designed a variant for the Mexican Government, who had asked for an external safety.  It was designed with an external sliding safety on the right side of the frame as 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 serial series for this version was 10000 to 13000.
