Defence Forces HK USP 9s.

    Seeing as our Defence Forces are getting the HK USP 9mm as their new standard issue pistol I thought I may get a GBB one.

    The USP was selected after a 18 month test against the newest 92FS and P226 versions. Even though the P226 is used by the Irish Ranger Wing.

    Anyway looking to get one, but I'm looking for the most realistic one I can get. Metal slide, plastic frame, full markings etc.

    I would go for either the fully size USP, USP Compact or the German Army P8 version with reversed safety lever.

    There does not seem to be any good ones on the market, can anyone here suggest one?

    The KSC USP doesn't look bad, supposed to fire at 315 fps. Doesn't have a metal slide :(

    Edit: you can get a metal slide for it from eHobby for $50.

    Hey guys. I have both the KSC USP Compact, and the KSC USP .45. Both have been upgraded with the Shooters Design slides for it, and I'm still in awe when I look at them. They have full Heckler and Koch trademarks, and the Shooters Design slides each have individual serial numbers.

    Two wonderful guns, and very solid. The blowback is amazingly strong :D

    I recommend KSC <nods> <nods again> <and one more for good measure>

    The only thing I don't like about the upgrade slides is that the markings are painted on in white, I'd rather the markings were stamped in the slide like the real ones.

    I have not seen a real USP with the markings on the slide painted on.

    I do agree the the KSC USP Compacts look real nice.
