Hey, you can do that?

Does it work on a P2000SK?

Beautiful score!

Do you, or anyone else for the matter, know the size comparison to the 9c and 45c?

nice score!

I would think twice on extended mag release designed for the HK45C. Read this;

Please Take Note: That although this mag release will fit all of the HK models listed above this is not an approved modification by HK. This magazine release is designed specifically for the HK45C as the standard OEM magazine release and not a factory upgrade for the HK pistols mentioned above. This new style magazine release has a steel insert. That makes contact with the magazine catch notch. And if installed on a USP pistol using polymer magazines. The steel contact point can eventually dig into the polymer magazine and cause the magazine fitment to become loose and possibly for mags to fall out. HK does not approve this modification especially for L.E. use.

The USPc uses steel mag bodies so the issue just mentioned should not be a problem.

That warning is meant for full size USP pistols, which use the polymer magazine as opposed to the steel magazines in the USP Compacts. Installing the HK45c manazine release on the USPc line is one of the single best upgrades one can do on the USPc pistols. If you haven't noticed, HK is remarkably stubborn about upgrading or changing parts in their individual pistol lines, even if makes sense (with a few notable exceptions like the upgraded firing pin). New manufacture USPs still come with HK proprietary rails, which nobody makes anything for except the adapters. A USPc produced today is essentially the same as one produced in 1994, no generational upgrading like you see with Glock.

IMO USP'S do not need extended anything, use your trigger finger to drop the mag, done

Nice pistol and price, I'm a little jelly

Is it only the 9mm and 40 USPs that have polymer mags? My usp45 has steel mags

sweet deal. I miss my USP. It was amazingly accurate and had zero recoil.

Nice score. I bought mine back in 1999/2000. It was actually the first handgun I that I bought for myself.

Now I've got a bunch more

... but the 9mm USPc is still one of my favorites and one of my most accurate.

Whenever I take new shooters out or folks that are looking to get their first handgun I bring out Glocks, a Sig, a Springfield, a S&W, and some HK's (VP9, P30, and the 9mm UPSc). At least 70% of the time, they pick the 9mm USPc as their favorite. It such a great gun.

Also does really well suppressed.

OP, is it stamped "Trussville, AL?"

Used to live there and I always get a grin when I see one that does have it. My USPc40 and USP Expert 40 both have it.

Nice score. The USPc's are also my favorite HK by far.

I have had and sold a pair and now have both the USP9c and USP45c back in the stable. I shoot them better than my previous P30, VP9, P2000 and HK45c. I have had a really bad sickness and that I thought was gone.... well it's back.

Clean your windowsill.

Also, I'm jealous. I thought getting a USP45 for 650 was a good deal

Curious about this as well. I know what the measurements on HK's website say but would like a real world assessment...

slightly smaller physically, big change in person

So you're saying the USPc 9mm is definitely much smaller?

Posted: 5/24/2015 11:29:14 AM EDT

[#27]

There is a very noticeable difference holding them. The 45 is thicker and bulkier than the 9. I'll take some side by side pics later today and post them.
