Since everybody is drinking the glock koolaid.... heckler and koch anybody?

Which hk felt clunky to you?

I have fooled with a couple of the full-size ones and they sure are hunks O' metal. Maybe they are actually in the same neighborhood as a G21, but sure feel bigger to me.

I've never shot a P7, but they definitely intrigue me. The squeeze-cocking function seems like such a great idea that I wonder why they aren't still made?

they were/are far too costly to manufacture vs the price most people are willing to pay.

Try shooting one. The USP has a recoil reduction system that is awesome. Glock tried to copy that in the gen 4 and you see how well that worked out!

I see HK's as Sigs with Polymer Frames. More or less even after detail stripping one i see em as a Sig/Glock B***ARD child.

Especially since HK stole Glock's Polymer frame idea, huh?

Exactly. The first polymer pistols were Hks. Most people think its glock. Nothing could be farther from the truth. The first polymer pistol was the HK VP70

Try a CZ-100 if you can still find one. That has got to be the worst trigger ever.

When I bought my first, it was cheap and "looked cool." What a mistake! Better than a rock, but I couldn't hit much past 7 yards. 14 lbs pull that was gritty as a gravel road and long too. Once you've shot one of those for a while, it'll make you appreciate just about everything else.

the only bad thing from cz

i mean it works, but ya the trigger is straight ass

which is a seriously FUGLY gun.

As for collecting - I collect guns that I like to look at, and most HKs look like the box that a gun comes in.

On that same notion, I hope you don't own Glocks then, because they are more box-like than HKs!

The HK45 and P30 series don't look like boxes to me, but to each their own. I shoot an HK45. I've shot Glocks; they deserve and get my respect. I just don't own any and never will. They do not feel good in my hand.

yeah I had a CZ 100. Not a bad pistol. The trigger did suck but it worked.

yeah haha. Its a special looking piece.

I really wanted a HK P2000SK but ended up with the G26 because of price. I do want a USP9C though but I want a G19 also.... can't we all just get along?
