Alright. Decided to go with the USP 45 F

[Vernal45]

Made my choice, due to the fact the Para I wanted is hard to get for some reason. So, USP 45 F it is. I have never owned a USP 45. My FFL dealer told me, I know dont listed to gun store rumors and BS, that USP 45's are good guns, but once you reach the 5000 round mark, things start breaking. Is there any truth to this statement? I had thought, from what I have researched, that USP's are as tough as glocks. Any info on long term USP 45 F use is appreciated.

What's the matter, is he going to have to order you a H&K instead of selling you something else out of stock? USP has a long service life. Don't worry about it. Only reason I traded mine was that it was too big for my hands. A double stack .45 is the answer to a question I did not ask.

That could be it , I have ordered it through CDNN, already paid for, he is just doing the transfer.

Well, the four USPs I have must be defective...

Oh, I take that back, I have to replace the o-ring on my Expert's barrel every 20,000 rounds (I've almost worn out my third).

Have to say I am well beyond that mark on both a compact and full size and have not seen any problems.

In the event that something does break, HK has a life-time warranty. Just make sure you purchase from an authorized HK dealer and send in the card along with a copy of the receipt.
