HK P7 M8 & M 13
A friend brought an M13 to the range many years ago, and when I tried it I was very impressed with the accuracy for a compact gun, and the whole package in general.
So when these two guns showed up at an auction back in 2014, I had a hard time choosing, then decided to try and get both, since they’re not made anymore and can be hard to find, seems like owners hang on to them. They were both abt $ 1500 apiece.
The M13 was LNIB with most accessories, but only one mag (I guess it originally came with two. It was made in 1998.

You did pretty well on those at the auctions. That pair would not have been much less expensive here in the US
P7s are certainly great guns. The small pistol's outstanding accuracy is due to the fixed barrel design.
It looks like it is about time to send those sights back to Trijicon to get re-lamped. At 20 years old they have to be pretty dim
I have had an older PSP for decades and while I do not carry it. I often take it to the range to admire the marvel of German engineering.
The older guns, like mine, do not have the heat shield around the trigger guard and the firearm does get uncomfortable somewhat quickly if you do not allow it time to cool between magazines.
I have purchased a set of HK logo Nills grips to replace the discolored synthetic grips that it is wearing in this photograph.
One day I need to get around to putting them on the firearm

I bought a P7 back when they were new and didn't like it at all. That squeeze cocking was not my cup of tea.
Sold it to a friend who packed it for many years and even won some early combat matches with it.
Those are nice examples!

Had a buddy that was married to a Russian doctor (a story of its' own). She bought him a birthday gift P7M13 NIB almost 10 years ago. Paid $3K with 3 mags. You got a deal. Joe

Classic12:
I look at all of the pictures you post and I can't help but wonder:
I have a PSP model and I'm a bit of a weisenheimer, so I used my PSP to qualify for my LTC (License To Carry). Neither the instructor nor the Range Master had ever seen an H&K P-7, and they struggled mightily to try and understand the piece, and whether it was safe enough to allow me to use it for range qualification. I had so much fun that I pulled the same stunt a few years later for my requalification (I shot a perfect score on both occasions).
By the way, I'm available for adoption, and I don't eat much. PM me for details.
Thank you for sharing.
Regards,
Dave
