Selling a 9mm to buy a .40S&W is like dividing by zero.

I like .40 but don't sell a 9mm Glock to do that.

9mm is a weak and inferior round.

Isn’t  there a new forum rule about promoting .40 s&w ?

Depends on how many Glocks you have in 9. I'd do it for a USP, but not a 40. Pewwww

HK USPs cause 5 of the 7 deadly sins (lust, gluttony, greed, envy, and pride) but not in .40...


*.45 is also acceptable here

I will trade you my USP 40 for your glock 9mms

For real.

Why would you want to go to 40? Keep the glocks. Or get a USP in 9.

No. Keep the Glocks.

I have a Glock 19 gen 5 and a hk USP 40. I would not sell the Glock to get one.

The Glock is my carry gun and the HK is my book of Eli gun

sell your glocks to buy HK eh, sure. I have both. I much prefer the ergos of the HK. but the glocks are cheaper to shoot and repair. and god knows to upgrade.

I would. Love the USP and the 40. It was built ground up around the 40 as guns in that size should be. And if you don’t have the hand of the 13% of people to whom a Glock actually fits, then you’re shouting them handicapped.

Didn't like it at all.

9mm or .45 ACP for me.

The HK USP is an excellent, super reliable pistol. I've owned 10+ HK pistols in the last few years, still have many.

In my opinion, the USP45 is the only pistol in the USP full size line that truly shines for what it is.

Think on it. The USP9 is reliable as hell, but its big. More clunky than a comparable G17, with less capacity and more difficult to source parts. The USP40 is the same, but in the gross 40 cartridge.

The 45 on the other hand, decent capacity for its size, better than any 45cal Glock offering, the FN models are cheaply made in comparison, SIG is ok if vintage, but passable newer models. USP45 is easily suppressed and supremely reliable with a can.

I think that in 9mm, the best available pistol today is the G19 Gen 5. I think that the best currently available 45 is the USP45. HK45 is a close second but there are a few issues holding it back.

The one major upside to your 40 choice is that the USP's dual recoil spring handles the round very well.

I wasn't that impressed with the USP40 I owned. It had way more flip to it than I expected.

Glock 9mm is a solid platform. Always good to keep one in the stable.

I'd rather rock a USPc in .40 with some match trigger parts installed or LEM. That could be fun.

LEMMatch hybrid is the best polymer pistol trigger ever invented, and close to or past the fabled 1911 trigger for real-world use.

OP should be buying USPs in 9mm.

I'm really trying to justify an Expert w/the jetfunnel & 18 round mags right now.

Fuck it, who am I kidding?  I'll probably just buy the next one I see off the internet at the outrageous prices being asked.

I figured that was the case. I've just never researched it. Always kinda wanted a USP but every used one I come across for a nice price is 40. I own one 40 that I don't do shit with and what to sell.

Keep the glocks and buy the USPs. They are pretty dirt cheap for H&Ks,it's not a huge expenditure. You always should have a glock or 2, they are too ubiquitous to not have at least a couple.

Never understood all the hate for the 40.  What's not to like about a fatter and heavier bullet doing the same speed as a 9mm? I actually like the cartridge more so then that gun!! This clunky USP service pistol has the same short length barrel as a baby glock G27. I prefer a clunky service pistol have a minimum 4" -4.5" barrel. Finally, once I got use to a SA only pistol like the Glocks, there's no way I'm going back to a DA/SA . I would find it hard to do alternating practice with the two kinds of triggers at the range.

I agree there's no conceivable reason to get rid of Glock 9s.  That's like trying to resell BIC lighters; they're handy to have around and you're not going to get shit for them anyway.

Does it matter which?  Can you really not do what you want without approval of "the hive?"
