What are your thoughts on the USP 45 Compact. I look forward to your comments.

The USP line is one of the best handguns ever to come out in my opinion, I never get tired of looking at them, And one of the toughest and most reliable weapons ever made, Love the way they look also
I couldn’t agree with you more. Thank you for stopping by.
The USP is a great series of firearms. It still overshadows the HK45. Great review as always, sir!
Thank you. I always appreciate you stopping by.
I am such a huge fan of Trijicon’s HD sights, I put them on every single pistol I buy. I know they’re overpriced compared to other offerings but they did right by me with my ACOG in the Marine Corps so I’ll pay a little extra.
They are nice. Thank you very much for your Service and for taking the time to stop by.
That’s been my EDC since I picked up years ago. Installed some Trijicon. Love it !
Bobbed hammer , loaded round indicator , manual safety , everything about it !! 😉
The USP and sig P226 are two of the finest weapons ever. I love both and never had a failure with either.
I have both an and like them both as well as the P220 45acp
The USP series may be a relatively old design, but it works every time.
An outstanding pistol made even better with those well thought out and respected upgrades. 👍👍
Very well said. Thank you so much for stopping by.
Great review MD - thank you!
You are most welcome. Thank you for stopping by!
One of the handguns I've always wanted. I passed on in my LGS a few years ago regret it every day
I did the same thing and then I ran across this one so I jumped on it.
Excellent. I’ve got P30 w the flat faced trigger, but they’re LEM and from Langdon. My understanding is that LEM is even better on the USP models.
You have an excellent gun sir.
I’ve been thinking about converting mine to LEM. Thank you very much for stopping by.
One of my favorite guns I own. I have the exact same set up, except when I added the gray guns nick flat trigger I also converted it to LEM. The safety jammed into my thumb and was generally just in the way. LEM fixed that and is great, gun shoots amazing. Solid review
I thought about converting it to the LEM version. Thank you very much for stopping by. I appreciate it!
Looks good,I think I don't flinch but catch myself at times...lol.
I started about three months ago. Trying to work it out, but it still comes back to haunt me. Thank you for stopping by.
Great video! I just picked one up without even holding one but because I already have p2000sk in 9 and 40. Love it after 1 trip to range with all 5 8cap magazines that it came with. Got it at a steal deal. My go to next to the p2000sks. I also bought a version 7 so no safety. Looking into doing threaded barrel/silencer combo and the different sights. Cant wait to go at it some more
Nice pistol, always enjoy your videos.
I appreciate that very much. Thank you for stopping by!
This might seem like a lopsided comparison, but I have Taurus TH45. To me it seems like the budget friendly option of this gun. HK is definitely high quality, but if you get the opportunity with your range, it might be worth comparing the two as a video idea. As always, I appreciate and enjoy your content. Thank you.
After seeing how you manipulated the trigger. I am sold. Was it purchased directly from Gray guns? Always wanted to get a trigger upgrade for mine. Thanks for your content and education.
It was installed by ZR Tactical Solutions. I appreciate you stopping by.
Provided it’s the real deal…I applaud your bravery for rockin’ a $40,000 chronograph at the range without worrying about recoil shock or case ejection scratches 😂
I buy things enjoy them and not to leave them in the safe. Thank you for stopping by.
@@MDpolo Excellent ! The only way 2go 🫡 Great content
Something isn't quite right with your GG install. At 12:15 you lower the hammer but the trigger is still far back like it's in single action. At 13:42 you dry fire it but the trigger stays back again. Same thing happens at 17:38. If you move the video frame-by-frame you can see at 17:40 that the trigger finally resets to DA when the gun is bumped by inserting the magazine. This is likely what happened in the beginning during your live fire session. Definitely do not rely on this for self defense until you get it sorted out.
MD.....Get the blue stock hammer spring out. I put a 10# in mine and won't go back. It ignites all primers I've put through it...I'll also add that in all my HK's, I either put the 10# in or in the case of the P2000 or HK45C, cut the coils off and then use my Lyman gauge to get a lb. rating that I want in single action. It usually hits around 4.5 and double around 7 to 8 lbs.
Interesting. Thank you very much for the tip! I appreciate you taking the time to stop by.
1 1/4 coil removed did a fine job of lightening up and smoothing my trigger in both DA and SA.
I just bought a used USP 45 compact from my local gunstore. They had a Black Friday Special of 20% off all new guns. I asked if they could do any better on the used guns and they sold me the HK USP compact for 530 out the door which I thought was a pretty good price. One thing I dont like about the gun is the magazine release, it's very small and hard to depress and the magazines don't drop out as easily as in your video. Perhaps it needs a new spring ? I like your sights and love that trigger and will order those items ASAP. Did you install the sights and trigger yourself or did you take it to a gunsmith? Thanks for a great video.
That is a fantastic price! Congratulations on your purchase. I normally install all the sights myself, but HK are a little tricky. I had my local gunsmith install both the sights and the trigger. Thank you so much for stopping by!
I believe U can replace the compact mag release with the full size mag release which is bigger and could be easier to use
@ Hello! Yes you can and it’s a very easy swap. Thank you for stopping by.
The HK USP is a sexy looking gun. Only thing I don’t like is the light rail is proprietary but it’s not that big of a deal. Also would like to see a red dot on it. Does HK even make an optic ready USP? Awesome review.
I have yet to seean optics ready USP. ZR Tactical cause I’m awesome job cutting them for optics. Thank you for stopping by.
Great review but that gun is a bit too old school for me, but my main question is, I know the 45 has won a couple of wars. but if the round is so great, how come the police never adopted the round? They had 38. They had the 40c And now the 9mm never. 45.
I’m sorry, but I don’t have the answer to that. Not that knowledgeable on the history of ammunition. I appreciate you stopping by.
I own the vp 9. The problem: the grips move around while shooting and you have to readjust. How are the grips on this gun. Thanks.
I’ve never had the issue that you described with any of the HK handguns. Thank you so much for stopping by!
I have an h&k 45compact. It's not the usp. What's the difference between the two?
I could make a whole video about the differences. The 45 compact is supposed to be the evolution of the USP 45 compact.
love mine. but compact only compaired to USP45
Thank you for stopping by.
That trigger doesn’t look like it is much different than the stock one as far as operation goes. If it is “a world of difference”, I think you need to describe the difference more.
Thank you for your comment for taking the time to stop by.
My only sidearm is a HK USPC45 and I watch TH-cam vids about them. I think I'm in a cult
An excellent choice for sure! Thank you so much for stopping by.
They have a false reset.
reviews without trigger weight mesurments
Against TH-cam community guidelines now. Thank you for stopping by.
@@MDpolo Are you serious? do they delete all the videos that have trigger weight measurment.
I know the channels are starting to get in trouble for doing so.
@@MDpolo censorship is running rampant around here.
Regrettably it is.
