Enhanced versions of the USP, the USP Tactical model is designed for users who need the features found on the HK Mark 23, but in a more compact and lighter weight pistol. It utilizes an extended threaded barrel with a rubber O-ring and polygonal bore and adjustable match grade trigger. The USP Tactical also features a one-piece machined steel slide, polymer frame with mounting grooves, ambidextrous magazine release lever, and patented Lock-Out safety device. Includes two 12rd magazines.
USP Compacts are smaller and lighter than large frame USPs. The reduction in trigger reach and grip circumference increases concealability and enhances shooting ergonomics. Unlike some subcompact semiautomatic pistols that use a difficult to shoot “two-finger grip” frame, the USP Compact uses a narrow, full-hand grip frame with a choice of interchangeable extended or flush-fitting magazine floorplates. This makes the pistol easy to shoot without sacrificing concealability. Like their large frame predecessors, USP Compacts are designed with the demanding needs of the law enforcement and military shooters in mind. Using a modified link-less Browning-type action, the USP Compact is built to take the punishment of high-energy +P loads. To reduce the length of the slide and barrel on the USP Compact, the mechanical recoil reduction system found on large frame USPs has been replaced by a specially designed flat compression spring contained in the captive recoil spring assembly by a polymer absorber bushing. Service life is still engineered to exceed 20,000 rounds. Easy to shoot, simple to maintain; the USP Compact is a reliable, safe, accurate, and highly concealable pistol.
