Finally have an HK Mark23 on the way. I've been wanting one of these for a LONG time. It was on the top of my "I really... really... want" list.

Don't have pic yet of course, but it looks like this:

as far as practicality is concerned, id be just as happy with a USP Tactical as with a MK. 23, maybe happier.

bu then again .. . being able to say "I have a HK MK. 23" is pretty priceless. . .

I read all 9 pages on that link you provided RojasTKD (hey, I'm retired).
Not being real familiar with H&K handguns (except knowing my former dept. permitted the USP 45acp if you spent the $700), so it was an interesting read.

The guy who did the comparision did an excellent job, tho some of those guys were jerks IMO for getting on Cav's case when he stated his opinion about the trigger.

All in all tho, it was a good read. Also, I know I won't be spending $2K on any gun anytime soon.

Since it has threads, it is probably not even permitted in Ka.
