A man cannot call himself peaceful if he is not capable of violence. If he's not capable of violence he isn't peaceful, he is harmless. There is a distinct difference.

The USPc operated with a 9mm barrel in a 40 slide, however, accuracy was wanting. A few tight shots then a flyer, rinse and repeat. So it can be done but is not optimal.

The guy I bought the HK USP 45 from contacted me, he found a 7th mag for it and wanted to know if I wanted it. I said sure and we worked out a trade for a couple of boxes of 9mm fmj. Even at panic pricing on ammo these days I came out way ahead on the deal (these boxes were all bought a pre-panic pricing). So now I've got a total of seven mags for the USP 45 and feeling pretty good about it.

Don't recall if I've posted this before but it's a funny blast from the past :mrgreen:

"An open letter to the gun community from HK’s marketing department: In a world of compromises, some people put the bullets in the magazine backwards…But it doesn’t matter, because our gun is on the cover of the Rainbow Six video games. Look how cool that SEAL coming out of the water looks… If you buy a $2,000 SOCOM, you will be that cool of an operator too. And chicks will dig you.


At HK, we stuck a piston on an AR15, just like a bunch of other companies have done, dating back to about 1969. However ours is better, because we refuse to sell it to civilians. Because you suck, and we hate you.

Our XM8 is the greatest rifle ever developed. It may melt, and it doesn’t fit any accessories known to man, but that is your fault. If you were a real operator, you would love it. Once again, look at Rainbow Six, that G36 sure is cool isn’t it? Yeah, you know you want one.And by the way, check out our new HK45. We decided that humans don’t need to release the magazine with their thumbs. If you were a really manly teutonic operator, you would be able to reach the controls. Plus we’ve fired 100,000,000 rounds through one with zero malfunctions, and that was while it was buried in a lake of molten lava, on the moon. If you don’t believe us, it is because you aren’t a real operator.


By the way, our cheap, mass-produced, stamped sheet metal guns like the G3 and MP5 are the bestest things ever, and totally worth asinine scalpers prices, but note that cheap, mass-produced, stamped sheet metal guns from other countries are commie garbage. Not that it matters, because you’re civilians, so we won’t sell them to you anyway. Because you suck, and we hate you, but we know you’ll be back. We can beat you down like a trailer park wife, but you’ll come back, you always do.

Buy our stuff.

Sincerely

HK Marketing DepartmentHK. Because you suck. And we hate you."

I ordered the Extended Magazine Release for my USP 45 this morning. It was recommended to me about 6 months ago for my USPc and I found it made a fairly dramatic difference from the stock magazine release. A little pricey at $26 shipped for this small, plastic part but it's easily installed and does make a difference.

This is the standard mag release paddle on my USP 45.

This is the extended paddle that I have on both my P2000 (pictured) and USPc.

It’s an HK part so I think I’ll be fine.
