HK makes a top-quality handgun, and they typically are priced to reflect this. I will try to address issues and questions that new USP owners or potential USP owners may have. Consider this a Guide/Review/Buyers aid to all things USP. There is a wealth of information related to the USP Series of pistols available on the web. If that is the kind of performance you are looking for in a defensive pistol, look no further than the HK USP. I have NEVER experienced a malfunction with ANY of the HK pistols I have owned. Since then, I have owned, carried, used, and abused 7 different variations of the USP Pistol, and shot many others. It wasn’t my first pistol, nor was it my first HK weapon, but it was the gun that I learned to appreciate the most out of all the others I owned. One that I could learn inside and out, and trust my life to every day. I have been a gun owner for many years, but in 2003 I was witness to an armed robbery that made me realize I was in desperate need of a defensive handgun. I wrote this review over at, but in case there are any members here who are considering a USP, here goes.Ī Beginners /Buyers Guide to the H&K USP Series of Handguns I would not have gone to medical school if we had a program like that.***I know many of you are experienced handgunners who likely have your own personal opinions about the HK USP pistol. I was a firearms examiner long ago, now a police surgeon. Interesting that there is a PhD in Firearms ID now. There is a table of Gothic script on the site for reading Luger serial numbers. It is not a forensic site so when they "match" a die stamp it is not the same. The guys on this forum are very knowledgable on Lugers and WWII guns. Lugers, with all the variations, reuse of numbers and Gothic scripts can be challenging. He has a lot of information on High Powers as well a Lugers, P38s and Radom P35s. They are very expesive now since there was limited production. For WWI/WWII 9mm Jan Still's books are great.
He is a very nice gentleman who will help you if you have a case and are in need of information. His book also has a lot of information in the High Power serial number range if you need to include WWII era guns. I bought a copy of "FN Browning Pistols" by Anthony Vanderlinden.
I have recently become interested in the FN M1910 and M1922 primarily because there were duplicaitons in the serial numbers post WWII. To try and collect info on all 9mm will be very challenging. You could spend a lifetime on 9mm serial number ranges just of WWII pistols.
