Trying to find out more about the full-size HK USP in .45. I haven't been able to hold a full-size USP, but I love the compact version. Just how much worse is the grip on the full-size? Is it comparable to the old Glock 21 (unacceptable for me), the new Glock 21SF (might be okay) or the XD (which is pretty good.)
Generally, I like HKs, but the grip may be a deal breaker. I know I like the grip of the XD, but there are so many other things I like better about the HK. I like the mag release on HKs way more, and I like DA/SA, I like the way they look, etc. But the grip is important! Is the grip on the HK manageable, or is it just another old Glock 21?
And lets keep price out of the discussion, I can get a lightly used HK pretty cheap, so a few bucks difference is NOT a big deal to me. I already know XDs are cheaper.
I would likely be carrying this as a duty gun, so holster selection is VERY important. Anyone know if there are more options for HK or the XD? (This is one of the reasons I don't want to wait for the HK45 like some have suggested, there really won't be any holsters available when it comes out.)
I'll find a USP to try somewhere before buying anything, but I'm curious now.
