Looks virtually unfired.. Barely a 'smiley' on the barrel. A bit of finish gone of the edges of the front sight. Guees I'b call it 95% +. It only has one 15 round mag with it but it was on sale for $449. Did I do ok?

Just got it out of layaway today! I have no idea how many rounds are on it but it doesn't seem to be many. Not bad for a 2003 model! I'll get some pics up soon.

ETA: Funny thing, the gun I have has ambidextrous Safety/decok levers. I looked at a USO variant check but I did not see any that had this configuration. Any ideas which variant I have?

Probably a V1 just with controls on both sides.

Does it have a safety/decock or just safety or just decock?

Thanks! I thought that might be the case. It has a safety/decock on both sides.

Finally got a few pics. My apologies for the lighting, etc. I am no photographer for sure! I've no idea how many rounds fired.. I would appreciate any educated guessesI Wondering If I should have all the springs changed?















Tried to show some small discolored areas in the next two but they don't show up too well, One one the front of the slide near the front sight and one on the tip top of the rear slide by the very last grip serration.













Last one are my February purchases so far... New Sig P226R and Walther PPQ, used HK USP 9

Yeah, you did really good on that one. I just bought one last week and paid $600. Yours looks to be in great shape. The ambi control lever alone brings $80-$100 depending on where you get it from.

The date code on your USP 9 is "AD" which means she was made in 2003.

This is the top of my barrel block after 6K+ rounds


Shoot different types of ammo and she how she cycles and include some +P ammo as well to see if there is anything wrong with her. If there is something wrong send her to HK. Just because you are not the "original" owner doesn't mean HK won't warranty anything as long as it looks like she was taken care of and she looks like she was babied.

If you didn't already know when your sights are alinged point of impact will be behind the front sight known as the dead on hold/cover up hold.
