Hello fellow HKers,
There's very little discussion on the boards about the 50th Anniversary HK USP 45c. I have one that is my safe queen. As soon as I learned they were coming out I ran to my local Gun dealer at the time (Southside Gun II in Jacksonville, FL.) to slap down my Grand to order it.
That's about the time the SL-8 came out too, so it was a toss up. The Anniversary won out for me.
I'm curious to know how many of you out there have one, and if you do; Have you shot it? Mine is still unfired and will remain so until I pass it down to my unborn child. Hopefully it will remain a family hierloom for many generations.
As far as I can tell the end of serial # is the weapon # of 1000. Mine ends in 925. Is this a correct assumption? Check in with your numbers.
Was this commemorative HK intended for exclusive export to the U.S? If not, why is "Anniversary" written in English and not German?
Any ideas on how many made it to the States?
