HK Mark 23 Full Review - HUGE 45 Polymer Wonder Gun

[@aj5748]

Thank you for capturing the beauty of this robust offering from HK. Gorgeous!

[@TheLegoJoker]

The Mk23 never fails to make me look great at the range, and it’s a real treat to shoot suppressed.

[@johndeere1951a]

I love the less expensive USP 45 Elite with the 6.02" non threated barrel. The back strap texture is sharp. I wear a glove A work of art

Damn, I doubt even Shaq could reach that slide release with his thumb.

Christmas might be coming early…. Been eyeing this for awhile now.

If you carry the mark23 as an EDC, you are the main Character.

[@watariovids1645]

It would be really cool if we could get an updated version of this gun , keep all the sutff that makes it really cool but give it a standard front rail, a factory optics cut and maybe a different cartridge option (10mm bein the obvious option)

[@mikedgg2]

It's YUGE!

I could see this pistol working to your advantage if you conceal carry it with a supressor in an adult entertainment convention.

VP longslide also has the O-ring

I have the expert and custom sport 9mm. They are by far my favorite handguns. I even prefer my expert over my TS2 orange

[@ronaldwoodman224]

Same here. I have a USP 45 made in 1995 and an USP Elite and I prefer both over my CZ Shadow 2 Compact. Dream gun is the Mark 23, but no threaded barrels in my state.

[@tosainu1]

Why over the TS2??

[@tosainu1]

Why?

[@bloodymotivationtv5926]

@@tosainu1 because the expert is more a "do all pistol" than the TS2 I am of course more accurate with my TS but the accuracy of the USP is just outstanding for a duty pistol

[@tosainu1]

@ ok I understand now…. if the USP was more accurate than the competition TS2 I’d be shocked

[@happyhaunter_5546]

all my PS2 SOCOM US Navy Seals brothers get the allure 😹

[@organicmaterialsciencecorp6115]

Sir does this gun have a fully supported barrel? The USP model,and the FNX doesn't have a fully supported barrel but the cost is outrageous. Thanks

President Trump said he owned one of these while he lived in New York

[@justinhorn2864]

Makes me like mine more knowing that

[@quoththeraven7]

I know the 45 is a great round. It's one a couple of wars. but people keep saying it's less nappy than 40. If that's the case, how come the police never adopted the round? They had the 38 the 40. and 9mm but Never the 45.. weird.

[@Rguy516]

Probably lack of capacity and weight of the pistols fully loaded

[@stripedassape8148]

It varies from department to department I think some did include it at some point in time but I'm not going to research it😛

[@quoththeraven7]

@@stripedassape8148 if you have to research it, then, more than likely it never happened

[@crominion6045]

.45 acp was quite common among police in the '80s, at least in my area. Back then departments weren't as restrictive about what could be carried, so I saw .357 revolvers, 9mm autos, and plenty of 1911s and Sig P220s in .45 acp being carried by the local PD.

[@danrunner84]

Looks like a USP. Also priced like one, lol.

[@deucedeuce1572]

You ever try the Wilson Combat P320 or P365 frames? I was thinking about buying one for a friend, because he don't like the Subcompact frames (understandably) and the X-Compact frame is too large/wide for his hand. I believe the Wilson Combat grips are thinner and more ergonomic on the P320, so I thought about buying him one for Christmas. My worry though is that the stippling looks really aggressive and painful. Was wondering if you ever tried any and if you think they're excessively rough or not.

[@jeffanon1772]

Easy to sand them down a little to take the edge off the checkering...just don't breath in the dust...
