I just got an HK USPc 45 I LOVE THIS GUN. It's amazing I mean I can't believe it. Its like everything my Glock wants to be but can't. The grip angle is a little different though does anyone have any advise on going from a Glock to an HK?? (my Glock is a 23)  thanks

Welcome to AR15.com

For me the best way to get used to a new grip angle is to shoot it.

I own Glocks, HKs, Walthers, one SIG and one Beretta. All have  a different grip angle and it takes a little bit of range time....but that is never a bad thing

If it continues to bother you, you can had a Houge rubber slip on grip....some like these I used to have one on a HK USP .40, but I thought it was a little thick.

1911 shooters have the hardest time adjusting to other grip angles so when they buy a Glock or HK some will send it off to a gun smith to re shape the polymer lower to that of a 1911 grip

I'm in the exact opposite situation.  Whenever I grab a Glock after holding my HK I my natural point of aim is VERY high compared to the HK.  I LOVE the HK's grip angle - it's perfect for my hands.  I can still shoot other firearms, including my Glocks and Ruger .22's, but the HK is just so natural and perfect for me I can't believe it.

My suggestion is just practice and get your muscle memory honed into the HK and stay away from glocks.  I like glocks, but they have a different grip angle.  Most other pistols have an angle that is similar but not glock.  In my opinion the angle is their one screw up.
