New Hand Gun...opinions?

after looking and hold the Xd i wasn't a huge fan...I like the glock a little better. But i liked the feel of the trigger pull on the HK it was so smooth feeling...

 

i am not inclined to answer that question. especially now that i have to think of what has transpired in the past. WTF bro. that is a really inapropriate question.

 

but i really liked teh trigger reset of teh glock

 

HaHa im not knocking 40's or free ammo for that matter. Im just saying 9mm is no bb gun.

 

trigger reset is a very relative thing.
it all depends on what you get used to

What tourneys do you go shoot?

I used to do IDPA, but I don't have time anymore

 

What is the "patented lock out device" for the P2000? I have search everwhere but cant find an explanation of what it is /how it works??

I heard something about how cops like the HK because of it..."if you drop a glock anyone can pick it up and fire it...but nto with the HK"

 

guessing here, but probably referring to the fact that glocks only have a trigger safety.

"Something new in the whole line of USP pistols -- including the Expert -- is a patented "Lock-Out Safety Device." If you didn't know about it you'd never find it. With the magazine removed you can see a small circular part in the back of the magazine well. In the little bag that contains a spare O-ring and Allen wrench for the trigger stop is also a spanner-type key that fits the safety inside the mag well. Rotating the key 90 degrees completely disables the pistol. It is elegantly simple. Turning the safety prevents the hammer strut from compressing the mainspring and allowing the pistol to cock. The hammer can't go back very far so it prevents the slide from moving as well.
The gun is completely disabled. You have to make an effort to engage the Lock-Out Safety, but it is certainly a clever alternative to trigger locks and other "safe storage" devices."

 

ok so that could be it but it didn't explain that if you dropped it someone coudln't pick it up and use it? If it is engaged you would have to use a tool...So there forthe badguy cant pick it up but yoiu arnt firing it either?

sounds stupid and liek i will never use it?

 

yeah, i don't know, that's just what i found

 

I can see it now


Please Mr. intureder dont rape my wife...I will be right back...i need to go get my little tool thingy so i cna dissengage my weapon?

 

i think its so you can throw your gun at them, and when they pick it up to fire it, you have time to tackle them while they are trying to figure out where the safety is

 

yeah for those people who also like to have a gun for personal defense but not keep it loaded?

 

Love my HK USP, for what its worth, they'll have my dollar forever. Definitely handle all the weapons and shoot if possible. Also I know cost is always a factor but I look at guns as though I am only going to buy it once (reality is different as we usually own multiple guns and sometimes buy sell/trade). Point being if you were only going to buy something once a. get what you really want and b. get the highest quality possible.

 

A good gun can be an investment if taken care of properly...they dont diminish in vlaue very much, and can save your life....

My grandfather has probably tens of thousands of dollars worth of old guns he has had around since the 40's and later...
