| The 1911 platform or the USP Tactical or Mark 23? My next toy is going to be a suppressed .45 and I'm not sure if I want to get a threaded barrel for one of my 1911s or get one of HK's toys that are already set up for this sort of thing. |

HK's are alot more suppressor friendly. It can be done with a 1911, but the system really wasnt designed for it. You'd have to find a very light weight can. That being said, if I ever replace the barrel on my kimber, its going to be threaded anyways...it looks mean as hell. |
Got any pics?

Why not call some of the suppressor vendors and see what they recommend? H&K's will most likely be the answer. However, they can surely set up a can for the 1911 that you have. I shot one almost 30 years ago. I had to hand cycle the slide after each shot. I'm sure a lot has changed sine then. You might also look at the class III pages here. Good shopping and good shooting!
