Most of my "problems" with pistols comes from me being a lefty and the mag release being in precisely the wrong place! This is one of the reasons I love the HK45 along with it fitting my hands perfectly. It seems to be a H&K thing though as my MP7 and MK23 both have the same type of ambi mag release and it looks like the USP does too. I'd recommend asking people to have a test of their pistols at a skirmish if you can't make it to stores very easily. It's like I found the ergonomics of the Glock 19 and P226 to be dreadful, which is partly but not entirely to shooting left handed. For some people though this doesn't seem to be so much of an issue as a number of popular models of guns have things like mag releases in weird places or bad fire selectors. I also still wonder why people can't get 50 metres out of TM pistols stock, it shouldn't require changing anything to achieve on Abbey or Green Gas with 0.25g BBs.

The PPQ M2 is fully ambi I believe. I really like the 226 personally, but I couldn't stand the glock. It's a shame that TM don't do a Gen 4 glock, and WE don't reproduce them properly, because one of the big overhauls from Gen3 to Gen4 was accommodating left handed shooters which WE didn't replicate properly.

I shoot pistol left, you can swap the side of the mag release on the P226 just for those unaware. 24 minutes ago, Esoterick said: I also still wonder why people can't get 50 metres out of TM pistols stock, it shouldn't require changing anything to achieve on Abbey or Green Gas with 0.25g BBs. Most pistols can throw a BB a long way, that's not what I was saying, I meant you will be able to accurately shoot at a genuine measured 50M with a flat trajectory, its max range is more like 65M 20 minutes ago, Greenmagic said: Thanks alot everyone you been a big help I think I'm going with the p226 e2 mainly I think it will fit my son's hands a bit better What would be the best gas to get out of these three Abbey 144 Nuprol 2.0 green gas Nuprol 1.0 Abbey Predator or Nuprol 2.0, the slightly more powerful gas gives a better cycle and cold weather performance.

The most spongy out of all the TM pistols actually as it's double action with no cycling slide. Hi-capas are what competitive shooters use. High configurable, easy to make changes to the trigger and TM make some excellent ones. All the TM pistols are a solid choice though. Get your hands on one and see which you like best.

Anyway, the HK45 is a development of the USP so they're quite similar. The fit in the hand on the 45 is more ergonomic and the slide is nicer. It has the ambidextrous mag release, the slide release is easy to get to and it has a functioning decocker/safety. I liked the USP Compact but I already had the 45 when it came out and felt no need to change. If you get around to skirmishing, the choice of holsters may help sway you. There's a lot more options around for the P226 than there is for the HK45! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep on the range at RIFT, can hit targets almost as well as with my recoil at that distance. You do realise that people swapping internals with negligible benefit is more or less as common as people overstating ranges with no actual metrics right? It's good that you checked I had though, instead of just assuming I'm pulling ranges out of thin air... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
