About HK's customer service, I had a P30S V3 9MM that was throwing brass to face and I sent it back. They fixed it and sent me an extra mag HK pistol case and a nice hooded sweatshirt. They were very pleasant to deal with and I cannot complain about the free stuff.

Back in the 80s I had an HK p7 squeeze cocker gun. 9mm. It was a great reliiable gun with one big problem. The trigger would get really hot after a few mag changes do to the use of a gas piston to hold the slide in place untill the round left the barrell. I complained to HK and asked them what can be done about it. They just told me that they were coming out with a new pistol that had a heat sheild above the trigger; I ended up trading it for another gun, at a gun show.

@craigdamage11 жыл бұрын
Don't worry about the shorter barrel on the USP Compact .45. H&Ks (like Glock) use "polygonal" rifling in their barrels. This not only increases velocity it also increases consistency (shorter spread) I have read many MANY range reports and chronograph tests. Glock 36s (3.78" polygonal barrel) and USP Compact (3.8" barrel polygonal) usually score identical velocity results as the SIG P220 .45 (4.4" barrel conventional rifling)
@plexibreath4 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the awesome high def video, it's as if I'm holding the pistol in my hand. I've been thinking of getting one, but the full size in 9mm, and maybe with a LEM trigger. But I'm a 1911 guy so having cocked and locked is most natural to me, I may go this route.

@SmokingandTyping meant to say "fire single action" but you know what I mean. I'm also interested in all the variants they put out. HK makes it complicated. That's great for options but it's annoying to remember what their trigger pull options translate to. What do most people settle on?
@follker13 жыл бұрын
according to H&Ks web site, its DA/SA with the safety/decocker, or you can get it LEM (law enforcement modified) DAO without the safety/decocker. so I assume the pistol in the video is DA/SA. If that is the case, then I would not be concerned with the dual purpose nature of the lever. I personally would carry it like my sig, de-cocked so I could just pull and shoot and not worry about a safety. Nice to have options too I suppose, all about training.

This looks like another good video to ask USP owners basic questions. The decocker troubles me since I'm not used to it. Is there any tendency to go from safe right past ready to decocked with your thumb? Does it feel natural to stop in the middle "click" to fire? Switching from a Glock, adding two options scares my tiny brain but I do like how USPs feel.
@TheEnglishRedneck4513 жыл бұрын
Surely having the decocker only one step away from taking the gun off of safe, means that if you have it cocked and locked, in a panic surely the ease of transition of that switch could lead to decocking rather than just turning the safety off to fire?

They did a trigger job at no charge and sent it back to me.

Hey H4T. I spent the afternoon at the range yesterday and they had the USP 45C for rent so I couldn't resist. It was a joy to shoot and I now must have one or the newer HK45C. At first the magazine release annoyed me as I considered it awkward. I soon found that using my right index finger to push down on it worked a charm. What got me was the rather tame recoil which felt no worse than running some hot 9s. HK is now my dream gun.

HK makes the best pistols all-around on the planet. If I had to take just one pistol it would be the uspc .45 or maybe hk45c. Maybe either in 9mm or a p30. Over a Sig legion or any of thst.

I plan on getting one but in 40. I have a Gock 23 I carry and I'm use to the bark of 40 after 3k rounds in it. I too want more capacity. I have an Ed Brown, Les Baer and Colt 1911 that carry 8 and 9 chambered and I carry the Colt at times. If I'm gonna carry 8 I'll carry 1911 steel. I shot the full size USP and I shot it surgically. I can thread it with my 1911's but not as consistent as the USP 45. So now I want your compact version. If I shoot it that well I might as well carry it. I only hope the compact gun shoots as good for me as the full. ~Black country boy

Id like to join with some of the other commentators voicing their concerns about the joint safety/de-cocker. Is the USP DA/SA? I really dont know, if it is then the dual purpose safety/decocker might not be such a liability, with the right training. If it is SAO your loss of fine motor skills during what could only be described as the most stressful thing you will ever go through, I would be worried I would over travel that safety to the de-cocker position.
