DFinan Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 I am a very new USPSA shooter, and currently shoot limted 10 with my HK45. As of now I havent made any changes to it, using it straight out of the box so to speak. Does anyone have any experience competeting with this gun and suggestions on things to look at modifying (staying within limited 10 specs of course)? Thanks for any suggestions.

gixxerjunky Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 Just a trigger job from bill Springfield. That's all I can think of and some grip tape on the grips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gixxerjunky Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 I also find the more I shoot my HK45 I'm starting to hate the V1. The safety and decocker lever is right in the way of my grip and I cannot get high enough on the gun as I like. If I try and shoot it like my 1911 I end up decocking it and if I put my thumbs under it I end up flipping the safety up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary1911A1 Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 The V9 would keep us from decocking it, but the thumb position would still be high compared to a 1911. I do wish HK had made the HK45 more 1911 like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wes777 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 I have HK USP 45 tactical with same problem-ish. solved by stipple on the top of the saftey decocker. This allowed me to ride my right thumb on the safety like a 1911. I have a good picture, will email it if interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not the OP of this thread, but I wish you would post it on the forum for everyone to see. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
