No love for Heckler and Koch?

[Aamdskeetshooter]

I've just realized there doesn't seem to be a lot of love for H&K handguns on MDS. What does everyone think of them? Is it because they're pricey? Of course Glocks get a lot of love. (Not from me. Sorry, but they just don't feel good in my hand.) So does 1911's (rightfully so), CZ (On my short list), and Sig (On my list too).

Have a HK USP .45 with the Match trigger and a few other mods. Love that gun, just gets pricey to stock up on mags. So it doesn't get exercised as much as other options in the stable.

That and I rest easier knowing that I rag out my M&P .45, which I do all the work on at home. The HK, I sent out to Dahlgren to have all the mods done because I didn't trust myself to do them.

I searched for Heckler and Koch before posting. I'm sure I didn't go back far enough to find that thread. No activity since 12/14. That says a lot right there.

I had a USP Tactical. I loved that gun. I really like the feel of the VP9 too. I heard early on that the VP9 didn't do too well on torture tests. Anybody know if they improved any?

I can't get past the mag release. That and the price tag mean I'd love to shoot yours. They do seem like quality machines though.

Shoot, that puppy is more than a little neglected. I must remedy that.

I have a P2000SK 9mm and love it. I've also owned and sold a P30 (regretted selling it), a P30SK and a VP9. I personally love the trigger guard mag release.

I have both the VP9 and Sig 226 in 9mm. I prefer the Sig but the H&K is a darn good handgun as well.

Have you tried the FNP45Tac?

 

[Czechnologist]

Nothing wrong with H&K. They never achieved quite the same popularity with their pistols as they did with their service rifles and MP's but, H&K is solid. They're an acquired taste like everything else.

who doesn't like HKs? they make excellent firearms.

H&K USP 45 here. Just upped the recoil spring to 16# to shoot some higher end .45Super/.450SMC out of it occasionally.
Trying to justify the cost of a threaded barrel for it. I think once I get a suppressor, that decision will be easier.

I had a USP 45 years ago. It was an okay pistol. Never my favorite, so I sold it to buy something else. Had to try it, got it out of my system.

100% agree...Sold 2 Glocks (a 17 and a 19) because I didn't even want them after shooting my VP9 LE...no comparison IMHO.

Then again, I like my Ruger American Pro much better than either of those Glocks as well...true story...

I do love my G21 though...
I just don't have the girl sized hands/skinny fingers needed for the 9mm Glocks...

 

[swinokur]

I have an H&K 45CT. It's not as popular as some other firearms here because it costs a bit more.

You know Ford, Chevy, Rolls Royce stuff

I'm a Beretta 92 guy. They are exactly what works for me and I have never had a reason to stray.

In the past (1980's) I shot the P7 and the MP 5. Both excellent! I'm surprised I didn't buy myself a P7
