    Never used one, sorry.

    It does look nice, though seems to be mostly made from ABS which is odd considering it's one of the more expensive pistols.

    After reading a few reviews on the wab, it seem the Tanaka USP can have mag problems, is more difficult to maintain, more expensive to fix and is harder to upgrade with after-market parts.

    It seems the recommended alternative is the KSC/KWA USP.

    looks nice alright, for that price you'd expect it to be full metal, but i'd say the abs is good quality and the real steel has a polymer frame anyway i think

    The real steel only has a metal slide, barrel and trigger.
    If I were getting a USP, I'd go with the KSC USP .45 or Compact that have the metal slide. They are actually slightly heavier than the real thing.
