Bought myself a USP .45 ACP a few days ago, it should be shipping soon. $918 LE package (3 magazines and night sights). How badly did I fuck up?
>>27915451
You didn't. Get a TLR-3 if its your defense gun.
>>27915451
>$918
Eh your dealer is padding his pocket
>45
9mm master race
In general I would say you did okay
>>27915451
I could have had a mint 45 USP for $500 and went with a W. German SIG P220 instead. Still second guessing that decision.
>>27915486
Thats 100 dollars below MSRP for a 2 mag model.
>>27915499
>paying more than 75% msrp since the internet was a thing
>>27915451
Great taste OP.
>>27915469
>needing a light rail adapter because of HK proprietary retardation
>all of my lolz
Anybody carry one of these? I'm worried it'll be a little too big for IWB. I'm 6' 165lbs for reference.
>>27915519
There is no light rail adapter on that you knob gobbling fuckhole.
>>27915451
Eh, since there was no rebate this season, I'd say you did alright. Still can't beat getting a NIB .40 Full Size for $650 after rebate that I got last year
>>27915683
Good price, but
>.40
>>27915576
It probably is if it isn't winter time.
>>27915643
Hah, you had to buy a special light with a USP specific clamp? That's even more fuckin hilarious!
>>27915712
I got it for free, 0/2 fagot, either way who cares if a person has to buy a special light?
>Muh logistics
You are going to get killed an have all your surefire and glock parts rated because you are too busy bitching on a flashlight elitist board to go train with your guns.
>>27915707
>Caliber memes
All memes aside, this is THE pistol to get in .40. Designed for it, and it shoots well with it. Also, funny thing you posted a picture of Hickok, who said the Glock 23 was his favorite Glock, a good, ol' .40.

Mah nigga, $600 usp .45 after those two visas was awesome. I rubbed that shit in peoples faces every chance I could when I used them when going out. This round of drinks sponsored by HK because I dont suck and they dont hate me. Hahahaha
>>27915746
.40
so good the FBI dropped it.
Bad price. Fantastic gun. Recoil feels like butter.
>>27917268
>Bad price.
Really? When did they start costing LESS than a grand?
>>27915576
You got a full size model?
>>27917263
Call me when .40S&W kill things less dead than 9mm.
>>27917307
Yes

Might be a little big to CC unless you have a major covering garment.

HK USP 9mm or USP compact 9 mm?
>>27917846
>.40 S&W
Ya dun goofed.
>>27917846
that handguard is pig disgusting
>>27917235
I spent $500 for a mildly used USP45 with the box and gubbins it comes with.
I'm not too fond of the grip because of I'm used to Glocks but it cycled 100 rounds of federal brass without a hitch. I had a spare TLR-4 and bought the USP adapter for $13.
>>27917846
How did you come across that HK91
>>27919816
>caliber wars
>not realizing the USP was literally built for .40 and thus all of the complaints about the caliber are mitigated by design
>muh mag cap
Ok.
>>27919847
It's functional. It's also the lightest handguard available for them, and if I feel like accessorizing, I can. I'm not bringing her to pageants.
>>27920114
Pure fucking luck, mon amis.
>>27915516

I got my USP .45 Tactical for $900 even, no tax
Is yours a Tactical?
>pic related (mine)
>>27920639
And to top it all off
>spent 5k to make his 2k valmet to look like an ak74
>spent 1k+ on his plate carrier
>lives in canada and can literally not ever use any of them in a self defense situation
>>27917279
I traded a WASR 10/63 for a USP .45 like 3 months ago.
>>27920652
I just got a tactical.
>>27915683
Yeah that was great. I bought a P30L new for less than what I sold my P30 for
I pretty much traded my P30 with a 12,000+ round count for a NIB P30L and $75
>>27917846
man i really have an itch for a .40 S&W USP, is it noticeably more snappy int the compact than the fullsize?
interested in the .40 because the USP was designed around it (and i already carry a P228)
>>27922734
You can definitely tell the difference between the compact and fullsize, but even with that being said, the compact still shoots a lot nicer than the .40 S&W glocks and their competition. The fullsize uses kraut magic to reduce the felt recoil even further. If you get a chance to try before you buy, go for it. If not? You'll probably not regret it anyway.
>>27922734
I've had no problems with my USP .40 and don't feel it's noticeably more snappy. My wife finds it comfortable to fire and considered a USP Compact for a while.
>>27922734
some say the fullsize snaps harder, but is easier to get back on target, while the compact snaps less but take a fraction longer to get back on target.
Id say the fullsize is prolly easier to get back on target, but who the fuck knows. When you double-tappin that fotay and get yo timing right, they go thru the same hole, regardless of gun.
whatever USP you do get, get the Tactical version, either USPT or USPCT
>>27922843
>>27922734
That was me, The compacts had less felt recoil, but were slower to return on target. Still perfectly fine, and only a 1 round difference. Also the compact can take P30/VP40 mags, which are starting to get cheaper.
>>27922779
>>27922840
>>27922843
>>27922952
i'll definitely check out the compact then, thanks
>>27923027
P2000 too, its better and sleeker. It just can't use a safety is all.
>>27923053
I did look into it, but I much prefer the decocker position on the USP (and I've wanted one since I was 10 years old thanks to Rainbow Six)
it will be a range gun or likely a car gun unless I end up liking it better than the P228
>>27923053
>p2000 over usp
>>27915451
Could have gotten a much better price if you had shopped around but it's an OK gun.
I'm trying to decide between USP .45 and HK45. What are the main differences?
Look into .45 Super, OP.
It's basically identical to 10mm.
Also, this.

All you need is a rubber or plastic mallet and you can roll your own. You'll be able to keep everything you need to reload in a shoebox. Here's a guy showing you how to do it. It's a 3 minute video.
http://youtu.be/noFKV8S6cnQ
You will save so much money so you can buy more guns!
>>27923150
Well if you never want to put a light on it and have it holstered with that light, then it will be fine.
I love my USPs but finding light bearing holsters for them is a pain in the ass.
>>27923426
Capacity
Ergos
Buffer system
Light rail
>>27915519
There was no such thing as a standard pistol rail when the USP came out. All of their new guns use standard ones.
>>27923703
Maybe this is a dumb question, but why doesn't HK just make a new mold for their USPs and put a picatinny rail on it? Seems odd that they continue to produce an outdated design feature.
>>27923774
It is a dumb question, because they already made new handguns.
>>27923812
An HK45 is a shittier version of the USP that holds less rounds because "mah ergonomics." Their new guns, except for the VP9, are backward steps with less capacity than the USP models.
>>27915576
Yes. It is my winter carry OWB. I could not see it being at all comfortable to stuff in your pants. There cant be a way to conceal it without a cover garment anyway so you may as well OWB it.
>>27923842
They have the same capacity as the USPs.
>>27923812
You do realize that companies can improve existing product lines, right? Especially a fuckign plastic gun, jesus, how hard is it to just bring it to the 21st century? Not that I really care, I'm not an HKfag with their dick in my mouth.
>>27923853
They don't. The USP45 holds 12 standard, but the HK 45 holds 10
>>27923865
They improved it by making new guns. Why you mad senpai?
>>27923956
Get an extended 12 rounder if it bothers your autism.
>>27923208
thank you mr Poseidon
>>27923956
I wasn't talking about that, you were talking about the VP9 which has the same capacity as the USPs.
>>27915514
To be fair if I can buy from a local store I don't bother bargain hunting, I just kinda figure out a ball park it and I'd the local dealer is close I buy from them
>>27915730
For being 0-2 you sound awfully butt hurt...
>>27924164
What is with the Internets obsession with butthurt? Just because I called you a name doesn't mean I am upset.
It is tiring having to tell stupid people they are stupid though.
>>27923774
It isn't a dumb question and they should have fucking done just that.
>>27915451
Good buy, decent price for that package.
I would have skipped the LE package though because I don't like the MEPRO sights and would rather spend them on Heinies or Trijicons, but they're still functional and I have them on one of my USPCs.
Next you'll need a compact. Snag a stainless while you can.
I have a USP and USPC in 9mm/black and one USPC in 9mm/stainless. Hoping H&K produces some full sizes in stainless again so I can round that out.
If/when I do buy a .45 H&K, it'll probably be a HK45C though.
Am I the only one that thinks USPs look fucking hideous?
>>27924351
Yeah
>>27920652
Jesus where'd you get it for $900?
>>27924177
I wasn't the fag you were replying get to initially
And as a disinterested third party I can objectively tell you that you are in fact butt blasted,
Analy agitated,
Rectaly rekt,
Rump rustled,
And, Bum bothered
So pardon me for being cheeky
>>27924444
I got lucky basically.
I went to a gun show once. Walked around a bunch, couldn't find one.
It wasn't that busy (morning) and a guy had a table for his range and other services (driving a tank/full autos).
The guy says to me, "You look like you're looking for something."
I say, "I am actually, but no one has one."
He asks me what I'm looking for.
I say, "I'm looking for a HK USP 45 Tactical."
He says something like, "Really? I might be able to help you."
I say "oh yeah?"
He says, "yeah, I'm an FFL, but it's my personal firearm so I can sell it to you."
He says, "$900, 2 mags, great condition."
Knowing what a USP costs, I'm like "sold!"
He said I'd have to come back the next day because he'd have to get it.
Asks me if I want anything else. I'm like, idk, maybe an AK for cheap or something.
He says, "I have an AMD-65 I'll sell you for $350 if you want. I can bring it with the USP if you want to at least look at it."
I say sure.
Come back the next day to the gun show, he has the USP, great shape. I look at the AK, also good shape.
Tell I'm I'll take both. Give him cash. Walk out of a gun show, private sale, with a new USP Tactical and an AMD-65 AK.
And that is the story of my first gun purchase.
This was like 5 years ago or so.
Yes, my first gun purchase was a USP Tactical.
No regrets. It was a great decision. I got a great deal.
Some years later now, I'm currently waiting for my stamp for a Silencerco Octane 45 HD for the USP.
>>27920139

Part of me likes to imagine that he made it a point to show it to me because of our mutual love of history and such. However, the pricetag was already on it, and in all honesty it was probably just serendipitous timing.
>>27922526
gah, really, another 40?
I consider a USP in 40 blasphemous, despite the "buuut USP wuz made fo 40"
I'll never understand why 9 or 45 isn't good enough.
>>27925469

I occasionally carry my HK USP 45 and have very few problems. Just get a quality IWB holster and dont shop at baby GAP. In the winter its super easy because a carhart jacket will literally conceal anything. Also if you have the trigger control and aren't retarded consider appendix carry.
>>27925414

Really? 32"?
You seem oddly proportioned, or at least particularly narrow in the waist, but you're otherwise identical to me.
The few guys I know who wear 32" are skellingtons.
>>27925705
Not to be a self righteous faggot but I consider myself pretty fit and lift weights, so the weight comes from muscle density and not a beer gut. But yeah my skelly friends also have 32" waists and are always mirin at how easy it is for me to CC because of my size. We must be god tier f.am
