Picked one up yesterday, with LEM trigger.

Traded my Lipsey full FDE HK45 for it. I have three P30s with the LEM trigger, and was always undecided about having the HK45 trigger switched, so this was was easy, I love that trigger. German made was icing on the cake. Interestingly, the stippling on the front/ back straps is more aggressive than the NH ones. Nice touch.

Congrats, pics would be nice - would like to see the stippling.

Are the HK45 compacts being made in Germany again?

 

[TooSixy-closed]

Pics please

 

[Mr.Mayhem]

HK45c is not made in Germany anymore so you must be mistaken. Unless something changed I'm not aware of.

Another member here stated that HKCS has told him new production of HK45/HK45C would be coming from Germany. I want to see proof of that, hence the request for pics.

^ this. I've heard the same information. Pics would make me want the .45 c.

Yup. I'd consider a German 45c. Only way I would actually.

 

[Pistole]

Sorry for the delay, been busy.

 

[sweersa]

Awesome! I wish my 45C was German.

Perhaps they are making room at the US facility to start cranking out HK293s :biggrin:

Trust me, I'm not mistaken.

 

[Mr.Mayhem]

Trust me, I'm not mistaken.

I stand corrected. Amazing! This is very interesting. Thanks Pistole for the pics.

 

[Hyno]

Nice pics. Looks like I need to start up the HK45 and HK45c fund. Have always wanted one of both, but I'm a junkie for German proof marks.

 

[TooSixy-closed]

Thanks for the pics, @Pistole. Where did you find it, if you don't mind my asking?

He's probably Canadian :biggrin:

Maybe but I think he's from the U.S. Tennessee probably.

My local gun shop. They'd only gotten the one.

I had a German 45c that I sold to a member here. Regrets? Well, I guess so, but only in the fact that I sold that particular model, as I replaced it with two others. Both are U.S. made, though. (My new avatar, btw)

In the end, it doesn't matter too much to me. I have some other German made pistols. There is no difference in quality, of course.

I do respect that some owners are also collectors, thereby the origin being of greater importance.

Wow... and it's using the new VP9 style texturing. Do I need a THIRD HK 45C?! lol

Good observation. The grip was one of the reasons I decided to sell the first one. Talon grip tape was my solution. The tape is a lot cheaper, but what the hell, go for the trifecta!
