Some of the first guns I shot were H&K growing up a USP 40 and HK93.

Just got off gunbroker a USP Expert 45. One of my dream guns since I’ve grown into a gun nut in a sense. I want a Mark 23 also but $$$$$$ and they are big for a pistol. This will be my duty gun for work since we have to supply our own at Loomis. Bit of a pricy duty gun but work does a loan so they covered $800 of the $1150 it cost me on broker.

Going from an Sig 320 as my current duty pistol to this USP. Both are 45s and I’m current winning bid on a second USP45 this second one is the regular USP not an expert, elite, tactical or compact.

Anyone else got some HKs?

I have a P30 and P30SK. I’m a wheel gun enthusiast but I figured a couple of 9mm’s would be good to have.

No H&Ks in my collection. But I wish you luck on the bid.

I got to spend a week at HK USA many years ago. It was an armorer's class and we were strictly doing a few of their subgun models. The benches were for two people so they paired us up and my bench partner was from Scotland Yard. It was a fantastic experience. I'm not, personally, a fan of the USP but only because of it's size and ergonmics. I can tell you from nearly 30 years experience working on every manufacturer you can think of, the HK's are expertly engineered, manufactured to the highest standards, and are exceptionally reliable. And that's coming from a guy who owns zero HKs (full disclosure I deployed an MP5 for a bit). You aren't going to go wrong switching to an HK anything. We have three USPs in the armory where I teach now but I intend to trade those soon because no one carries them anymore. You'll be the "USP guy" now!

Yeah my one supervisor a former marine…. Is excited for me to get it and wants to go to qualifier this year just to shoot it.

My first handgun was a USP ss. Sold it to a pawnshop when I went on deployment way back when. Biggest mistake I ever made gunwise. Now I just have a safe full of glocks.

There are worse ways to roll. I've never had a failure other than a few bad primers with a 9mm Glock, in I don't know how many thousands of rounds. I've had a handful of hangups with 40 and 357 sig, but even at that, it's a handful over many thousands of rounds and it was load specific.

For duty issued weapons,(pistol wise) I’ve always carried a Glock 9mm in the following models: 45, 19 and 17.

USP looks pretty sweet though!

We used to shoot MP5s as a long gun option and boy were those things a great little weapons system. So accurate and easy to shoot.

I've always loved the MP5SD and the HK USP 45c . I've yet to shoot a MP5 but as much as I love the USP and VP9 , etc. I just dont shoot them as well as other guns.

Regardless of what you go with outside of Hi-Point you are better off with just about anything over the P320. Harder and harder to find a range that even allows them anymore.

Have owned a bunch of different H&Ks over the years. In my mind, their #1 quality is coolness. They are undeniably off the charts when it comes to looking and feeling awesome.

I've had a couple over the years.

I'm a 9mm guy do to bulk ammo and ease of CC.

As a pistol fanatic, like Sigs and Caniks right now.

Got a few Rugers and a Taurus in 38.

Be safe
