Quoted: I'm running 2V9 USPs, both in .45 (TAC and Compact). I don't ride the saftey, but only because I don't consider it the best way to grip. Mechanically, it should be fine.
My reason for favoring the V9 is that it is too easy to accidentally de-cock a V1 when disengaging the saftey under stress.

That's one of the major reasons I want it -- it's too damn easy to accidentally push down on the decocker. What's worse than accidentally decocking the thing is half-decocking it. Renders the whole gun useless.
I did that very thing at an IDPA match actually.
Quoted: Congrats on converting to V9. I think you'll find that you do not miss the decocker at all.
I own a full size .45, V9 from the start. 5000 rounds in 6 months, riding the safety the whole way. I will let you know if the lever ever breaks or malfunctions.

That's music to my ears, Vinh. Thanks for the feedback.
Thanks a lot for the input, guys! I definitely think I'm going to like the v9. Honestly, I don't know why I didn't convert sooner -- I like single action guns, this gun has a safety -- duh! I believe HK designed the USP to be carried c&l but added a double action trigger pull so they could sell it to more police departments.
