Does the wish list count???

Have you tried the HK45? Just curious how it is to the USP...Not that I'm unhappy with the USP. The HK45 and P30 "LOOK" like basically the same gun except differing cals.

I’d love to get a Mk23 ... its about as practical as a Desert Eagle, but it’d be a lot of fun to own.

The wife is getting me a USPc .45 for our anniversary on 12/14.

I’ve fired an HK45 Compact, but not the full-size HK45 (though I’ve held the full-size). The HK45c is very comparable to the USPc .45. It just has the slightly sleeker look and more ergonomic grip.

My understanding is that the full-size HK45 is almost identical to the HK P30. The grip is the same. The HK45 has an external safety that the P30 doesn’t (though the P30s does). It is also a bit larger. Otherwise, they’re the same. I really liked the ergonomics on the P30, which is why I chose it over the USPc 9mm.
