Umarex H&K USP Compact GBB Pistol (Black/ Licensed)

The USP (Universale Selbstladepistole or "universal self-loading pistol") is a semi-automatic pistol developed by Heckler & Koch GmbH (H&K) of German origin and international fame. It was developed throughout the late 80s and 90s with the USP45 being released in 1995. It was designed as a competitor for the OHWS (Offensive Handgun Weapon System) requested by the U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM). Since its introduction, it has quietly slipped into mainstream TV, Cinema and video games with numerous appearances over the years, particularly the USP Match. The confidence to run on Green / Propane out of the box, a metal slide, the sting of 370 FPS and a magazine capacity of 25 rounds makes this pistol a solid contender for an out-of-the-box skirmishable hand cannon. Although the pistols externals are mostly polymer, it is still fairly durable and is fairly hefty at around 1.1kg. With this level of power, it can also clear full length corridors and really be felt at ranges to give carbines a run for their money. Although not as popular as the ubiquitous triad (Model 17 / 1911 / M9) the USP maintains a second tier spot in terms of compatibility with common aftermarket gear like holsters. This combination of performance, quality and loadout compatibility make this a pretty great buy overall.
