USP: is the "tactical" worth it ?

[Todesengel]

keep your UPS45F and save up the cash for the Tactical...The Match Trigger, O-Ring Barrel & Adjustable sights make for a great Target Gun. However, for SD I'd use the USP45F.

The match trigger, o ring barrel and ability to put a suppressor on it made me get the Tac. Even without the suppressor I think its a great range gun. I'd keep the USP and get a Tac. Maybe you'll end up with a suppressor some day.

With a can, a lot of stove piping is experienced with the Tac and Gemtech... sometimes failure to feed is also experience... a recoil enhancer may be needed.

Definitely worth it for the match trigger, and O-ringed match barrel, and adjustable rear sight. Plus half the hammer is sem-ruberized on a Tac but is made of hard polymer on a USP .45.

IMO, I say its worth it. I have 2 Tacticals and 1 CTv1.
My 1st HK was a Tactical. My 2nd was a regular USP45, I hated the trigger and traded it in for my 2nd Tactical.

I've never seen a USP with a polymer coated hammer spur. My '99 dated USP .45 has a rubberized hammer spur, just like every other USP .45 or Tac I've seen. Even the newer 9mm and .40 USPs are getting the rubber spur.

I had a USP .45 and it was a nice pistol, the only deal with mine was that it was what they said was a variant 7 which basically meant it was for a left handed shooter safety wise. I dont use a safety so it didnt bother me. I came across a picture of the USP Tactical .45. Loved it! I sold my USP .45 to a friend for what I put in it and made the push for the Tactical. I got the tactical model about 2 weeks after I sold the USP. It was everything I wanted it to be, it was accurate, reliable, and it looked awesome, not to mention it came with the little discreet carrying case which was wicked. I have no regrets over selling the USP so I could get the tactical, I only saw it as an uprade. Now, if your talking carry......I have never carried the Tactical. I prefer my Glock because I am a stupid, under trained, under paid Police Officer (Quote from an old post from an idiot). Either way you go , the Tactical I got set me back about $1200, and I am not a rich fellow, so selling the USP was almost required, but you will be pleased with the weapon's performance. I would tell you to do what you can, if you keep the USP and get the Tactical, will your USP every see the light of day again?
