THE
USP COMPACT SERIES
The
HK USP Compact is a small frame pistol capable of firing
the most powerful cartridges in 9mm, .40 S&W, .357
SIG, and .45 ACP. Based on the full-size USP models, these
handy pistols combine compact size with optimum effective
shooting performance.
USP
Compacts are smaller and lighter than large frame USPs.
The reduction in trigger reach and grip circumference increases
concealability and enhances shooting ergonomics. Unlike
some subcompact semiautomatic pistols that use a difficult
to shoot “ two-finger grip” frame, the USP
Compact uses a narrow, full-hand grip frame with a choice
of interchangeable extended or flush-fitting magazine floorplates.
This makes the pistol easy to shoot without sacrificing
concealability.
Like their large frame predecessors, USP Compacts are designed with
the demanding needs of the American shooter in mind. Using a modified
linkless Browning-type action, the USP Compact is built to take the
punishment of high energy +P loads.
To reduce the length of the slide and barrel on the USP Compact,
the mechanical recoil reduction system found on large frame USPs
has been replaced by a specially designed flat compression spring
contained in the captive recoil spring assembly by a polymer absorber
bushing. Service life is still engineered to exceed 20,000 rounds.
Easy to shoot, simple to maintain; the USP Compact is a reliable,
safe, accurate, and highly concealable pistol.
