Sunday night I fired about 25 rounds out of a .45 USP rental gun at my local indoor range. That gun was great. The SA trigger was so light and smooth I couldn't believe it. I was sharing the gun and a box of ammo with another guy, and when we were down to 10 cartridges I suggested we each fire 5 DA shots. After inserting the mag and racking the slide, I used the decocking lever (also the safety lever--v1) to lower the hammer. I decocked after each shot. The DA trigger pull was super smooth and easy. There was nothing gritty or jerky about it. Smooth and easy. Very accurate.
A buddy of mine has the exact same gun in .40. I've shot his gun on a few different occassions and I don't remember it making such a great impression on me as this particular specimen did. I'll have to shoot my friend's gun again and see if it's as good as this rental . If all HK USPs are this smooth I'll definitely have to get one. BTW, the rental had a longer 'Match' barrel (~6") and a Hogue rubber overgrip.
I just wanted to tell all of you HK owners and fans, and everyone else for that matter, just how impressed I was by this gun. I've been wanting to get a .45, now I know which one to get.
