Country: | I can't argue with you. The P210 is expensive for a reason and thier accuracy is renowned. Never shot one, but have read about them being gems and the manufacturing is exemplary. Some folks don't like the Glock trigger. Does take some getting used to. Almost like a two stage military trigger. I happen to like it. My only complaint is that my hands sweat and so I have added a rubber sleeve for better wet grip. The new Glocks have better texturing and finger grooves.

Country: | Not a fan of the long barrel, but beautiful nonetheless. Sig should round the frame behind the trigger. What's a little extra CNCing on the golden P210.

| Yeah I agree, its abit too much. I like the std. P210 better with its already long 120mm barrell. The LS with its 150mm barrel is also intended for target shooting and would be unsuitable as a sidearm for the military.

Country: | Wow. Not very very experienced in hand guns. The only real experience I have is with 9mm Baretta because it was my primary weapon, but damn those up there look great.

| I have had "Baby"Eagles in both 9mm and .40 cal. Both were very good shooters. Never had a problem with them and were pretty accurate. Only thing I didn't like was that the slide was a little hard to grasp(like CZ-75s). Otherwise they went bang everytime..Didn't know PPKs came in a 9mm,thought only .32 and .380(9mm kurtz)

| Those pics of the p210 are really nice. The Nills grips are awesome also. Have them on a few of my pistols and the fit and finish of them are excellent..

Country: | Gotta get back on track here fellas... Special Operations, Military... Several of my friends are still active duty SEAL Team members, and the weapon they currently use is the Heckler and Koch Mark 23 .40 S&W....
There is no other weapon they would rather use, and trust me, the have the luxury of using WHATEVER they want.... Quote: |

The USP tac, while an outstanding weapon, doesnt seem to have the same flow as the slightly larger Mk23...
And besides, the slightly heavier weight is better when ur knockin some scumbag in the side of the head with it...

Country: | I can't argue with you Les. But Mk23 is like taking a 6" carbine to a rifle fight. FANTASTIC'F'ING weapon. Well made (like all HKs), but overkill hardware when an operator can use something that has better ballistics, same sound signature with attachments, and ammo compatibility with the rest of your stick.
We disagree.
