I've got my next purchase narrowed down to a H&K USP tactical or a sig p226 elite dark. Any recommendations? And why?
I have a similar dilema. I am between the H&K45C and the S&W45C. I might be leaning towards the S&W.

olzkool,
We all know that HK USPs are better than Sigs. We can't tell Maui that because he won't be able to handle the truth. His Sig-ness has clouded his mind. One day, he will recover and buy a USP.
Maui,
The barrel of the USP is cold-hammer forged from high-grade chromium steel, the same type of steel used in cannon barrels. During testing, a bullet was deliberately lodged in a USP barrel. Another cartridge was then fired into the obstructing bullet. The second bullet cleared the barrel, resulting in a barely noticeable bulge. The pistol was then fired for accuracy and the resulting group measured less than 2.5 inches at 25 meters.
Can a SIG survive that or does it get reclassified as a destructive device?
Other less destructive tests reveal much about USP reliability and durability. Function testing a wide selection of ammunition types, one test gun fired more than 10,000 rounds without a single malfunction. That means no stove-pipes, no failures to feed o r eject; no jams! Endurance firings of test samples has passed 20,000 rounds of high performance .40 S&W ammo without any parts failures. Sever temperature tests required the USP to be frozen at -44 degrees F (-42 degrees C) and then fired, frozen again a nd quickly heated to 153 degrees F (67 degrees C), and then fired again. These temperature spectrum tests were continually repeated, and with no adverse effects on the USP
Just messin with you man.... We miss the SIG Porn Updates.
The Bore axis on SIGs are too frigin high. The laws of physics simply dictate that they suck. You can't argue with me... its the law.
However, I likes the Shiny Sigs.
OK... Ceasefire... No more SIG/HK debates.
It's just something about the SIG I love....
In all honesty I've been looking at the HK's in 45.....
just looking though...
