(btw I've put around 5,000 rds through that G17 with only one mal, that was my fault, limp wristing the hell out of it screwing around)


I bought one of the G17's many years ago, and had nothing but trouble with it.. It always jammed, regardless of the type of ammo I used, and it was usually a stovepipe.. I put about 500 rounds through it thinking that maybe the springs needed to loosen up a bit, but when it was still doing it I sent it to Glock for servicing........they sent me a brand new one back, and never a jam in god only knows how many thousands of rounds..
I also have a G21 and G30, and thinking about getting a G22.. I'm a die hard .45 guy, but I think the .40 will be a nice round as well.....my experiece with it is very limited.. I've got 4 different 1911 style .45's, and love 'em..

I would also throw in a serious suggestion of the "new"er .357 auto...or 357 sig....ammo...great stuff...fast muzzle velocity low kick back


A lot of the early model Glock 31 and 32 had problems with the barrel not standing up to the pressures with the .357SIG round.....something about the barrel being a bit too thin, IIRC.. They solved the problem by beefing it up, but I think the first couple years worth of those models were potential problems.....not that they would blow up or anything, just that the barrel would expand enough that it would foul the action..

Yeah, I really like the H&K USP series, a H&K USP 45 Compact is my next carry gun, great gun. Although, from my experience, the Glock and the H&Ks shoot almost the same, but the Glocks seem to be more reliable (just barely and even then, they're both *really* reliable). (btw I've put around 5,000 rds through that G17 with only one mal, that was my fault, limp wristing the hell out of it screwing around)

I've got an H & K USP .45 full size, and it's very reliable and accurate. No problems whatsoever.
Ever do any tactical pistol courses? I've only been able to do one (Texas Pistol Academy) and am totally itching to do another...

I'm not sure how often you get to Nevada, but FrontSight (http://www.frontsight.com/home.html) school is about 40 minutes south of there. I've taken one 4 day pistol course, and a free sub machine gun course (free to graduates of their other courses). Great place with lots of good instructors. Also, I put 600 rds through my H & K, didn't clean it, and never had a malfunction.
