May have to grab a few more. Anyone have long term usage on them?

I don’t think I’ve ever used a 17-rounder for an HK pistol. Always been 15-rounders in 9mm.

That mag release extension arrives for the P2000 a few days ago. Haven’t had the chance to install it yet, maybe later today or tomorrow.

Okay, I replaced the mag release with the extended version I purchased from HKpro and love it! Makes a superb pistol even better! This is fast becoming my favorite pistol. Still have the 40 S&W barrel in it and will likely keep it that way. Makes we curious about the P2000sk version.

Think my HK itch has been scratched

Traded for an HK USP Compact V1 9mm tonight.

Took my HK USP 9mm for a run tonight. First shot dead center in the red. The rest all in the red. Federal HST 124 9mm. Perfect as always.

I soooo want a USP compact with a stainless slide.

I knew you had an HK but couldn’t remember which one. You just answered that question. Looking forward to taking this one to the range, hopefully Monday. Nice to now have a couple of DA/SA pistols again as well as the DAO P2000. Just something about a hammer-fired pistol that I like.

We’ll have to have an SEP range day again soon. Or maybe go to that Outlaw match in Ruskin. I think they’re planning on it next Wednesday Bob.

Full Size, HK USP 9mm, V1 (DA/SA Safety, Decocker)

Added a rail adapter to allow TRL light. Works great (except in my cool Blackhawk carbon fiber holster). Grrrr!!!!

Been awhile since I had HK pistols so I asked the question of magazine compatibility on GT. Got the answer:

USP Compact and P2000 are the same. P30 and VP9 magazines work in the USPc and P2000 plus the SK models.

"At 91,300 rounds, the P30 was running strong...."

All of the reliability of a Glock, except there are not any idiots running around on film or in the streets holding one sideways while pointing it. That's why I choose HK.
