Because i am so optimistic about the HPA I got to thinking that a threaded barrel for my usp 45 is in order.  
1-Can i just buy a HK threaded barrel, install, and shoot?
2- Is there better aftermarket barrels?
3- What is the actual threading to look for?
4- Or should I just find a usp tactical or HK45 tactical?
Thanks for the input

Yes, you can buy threaded barrels, for $300 bucks.

Thanks for the reply.  It is better than buying another pistol but definitely more than I hoped. Would i need to add the o-ring because mine doesn't have it and it looks like it has a grove for it

You can buy a factory barrel directly from HK for $239 with free shipping and a free HK knife (BF only)

FYI selling a base USP 45 and picking up a USP Tactical 45 makes sense. Adjustable match trigger, threaded barrel, match suppressor sights.

I dropped one into my USP 45. It shoots fine. Yes, you need the O-ring.

Forgot about the sights being different on the tactical, I already did the match trigger upgrade and don't like to sell guns (especially since I bought this gun before WA passed the bullshit UBC) so I guess i need to think on this. Thanks for all the replies.

FWIW- personally, I am not a big fan of tall, suppressor sights. They are fine if you are going to shoot the can all the time on a dedicated host gun but kinda in the way any other time. While I have dedicated host guns, my favorite all purpose set-up is a USP45 with standard sights and a threaded barrel. If I have the range to myself, I can throw my Octane45 on and just imagine the portion of the target obscured by the can (not that much) and focus on the front sight like I am supposed to anyway.
