Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The HK4 is a highly refined version of the Mauser HSc self-loading pistol. Heckler & Koch's familiarity with the HSc design stems from the fact that many of the company's founders had previously worked at Mauser-Werke Oberndorf A.G. both before and after World War II. Much like the HSc, the HK4 features a straight blowback action, a double-action trigger, and a slide-mounted safety. The name "HK4" refers to the pistol's unique feature: the tool-free interchangeability of its four barrels, which can accommodate different calibers, including 9mm Browning Short, 7.65mm Browning, 6.35mm Browning, and .22 Long Rifle. The pistol consists of four primary components: the slide, barrel and recoil spring assembly, frame, and magazine. To switch between the various centerfire calibers (6.35mm Browning/.25 ACP, 7.65mm Browning/.32 ACP, and 9mm Short/.380 ACP), users need only swap the barrel, recoil spring assembly, and magazine.

When switching from centerfire to the rimfire .22 LR caliber, an additional step is required: loosening a screw on the breech face and rotating the removable breech face to the appropriate position for either centerfire or rimfire ammunition. From today’s point of view, none of the above calibers is particularly effective for self-defense. But the HK4 was somehow commercially successful, perhaps because it was accepted as a service pistol for the German Customs Police (Zoll), though it was never quite able to compete with the Walther PPK, which was reissued by the Walther Company in the 1950s.
