The WANT is growing stronger, just haven't been able to pull the trigger on getting an HK. Fondled a used stainless model today at a LGS, now the want is stronger! LOVED the feel in my hand, trigger was better than I was expecting. Was a double/single not sure what variant you call that? Are the USP's really THAT durable, anybody ever have problems with theirs? The one thing I like about Glock is I can repair one in my sleep. Holding that HK made Glock feel like it came in a Cracker Jack box...
 Any cons besides price, and holding 2 less rounds than a 19???

I want one, too. Thanks to Jack Bauer (24) and Danny Archer (Blood Diamond). I just traded a Glock 19 for a second VP9. That HK bug is insatiable...

Just saw one sell at auction for $475. And a tactical 45 for $475 too
I love my usp9c and had to hold back on bidding. |

From a carry standpoint the USPc will be heavier and won't conceal quite as well as a G19/23.
My USPc 40 is noticeably heavier than my G23. And the mags with the pinky rest will print more. |

They are bomb proof, but as stated, larger than their competitors.
While non apples to apples my p30 is my favorite centerfire pistol. I say go for it. |

USP Compact is my favorite pistol, ever. I have one in 9mm and one in .40. You should do it!

Are the P30's much different internally?

OP, is the .45C out of the question? While I haven't shot the 9mm compact yet, my .45 compact is more accurate than my Tactical model.
Makes a bigger hole too........

Almost 10 years on my USP 9 with no cleaning whatsoever and only lube the decocker once a year to keep it from sticking.
Round count is well over 10K, no breakages and a couple of stoppages from some gummy like substance on wwb 100 count ammo.

After 20 years of carrying various brands, mostly Glocks and most recently G23, I finally think I've settled on a USPc .40.
Reliable, durable and accurate. I'm looking for another. I need two for some reason. |

I carry a USP9c daily and ended up trading a G19 towards it. It's a great gun and truly is over engineered which makes it a bit heavier. The slide is a little thicker, however the overall length is shorter than the Glock and the grip is the same with a flat magazine. I have also had a number of other HK's and the size of the 9 compact is very similar to a p2000 which carries well. The USP45c is quite a bit larger and you really start to notice the difference. It's a great gun that I don't think you will be disappointed with.

Threads like these cost me money.
That 9c seems to be calling my name I'm not sure why it's never been on my radar |

H&K USP Compact 9mm was my first handgun I ever bought. And just like meth, you can get hooked after your first time...
Boat loads of cash later...

I wholeheartedly recommend the USP9c. Some will say the capacity isn't as great as some pistols but I am in CA so once you hit 10 rounds it is mute.
You mentioned DA/SA and the variants... I bought a v1 (DA/SA w/ safety)... because I have other go to pistols without the manual safety I tended to be iffy on making the USP9c a regular pistol or a nightstand gun. I finally got around to swapping it to a v3 (DA/SA de-cocker only). If I had known it was so simple I would not have purchased several of my other pistols. Buy a 'detent plate' for $10 and swap it out while watching an episode of 24. It takes 3 minutes and is a piece of cake. USP9c + $10 v3 detent plate will make the USP9c soar and be your go to pistol. v3+4 Detent Plate |
