I've really come to like the USPc pistols I've gotten this year. As I mentioned in another thread, I was thinking about getting a Gen 5 Glock 23 when they came out. But then I got the USPc in 9mm several months ago. Excellent pistol! Then on Armslist I guy was selling a complete USPc upper in 40 S&W. I found out the lowers are the same so I purchased it and then later on got a 357sig barrel from Rim Country Mfg. Not that I'm a big 357sig guy, but I wanted the entire platform to be a 3 caliber-in-1 pistol. Just excellent all the way around. So I'm pretty much not interested in the Gen 5 G23 anymore as the HK USP just offers way more of what I prefer in a pistol.

As far as the Sigs, like the HK's they are simply quality pistols. I don't have a ton of experience with Sig but I did have a P226 Equinox and of course I EDC the P365. I had a P320 and it was 'okay' but didn't keep it. And I did have a P250 in 45acp that I actually quite liked. I should have hung on to that one.

Kimber micro 380

I picked up an LCP II a couple of weeks ago: just had go have a pocket pistol that wouldn't print in my jeans. So far, very nice.

I have a Bersa Thunder Plus 380. I had one jam early on, but ever since then it’s been problem free.

Really like mine. I forget it's in my pocket, even with a 7-round mag. Good little shooter

Got my hands-on Walther PPK 380.

I had a Glock 42. Shot very nice. However, for .380 I chose to go with the LCP and LCP II because it was smaller for pocket carry. But the G42 was a solid pistol and very comfortable to shoot. Enjoy.

That's the thing. The GLOCK shoots great but mannn it's a big gun for it's limited firepower. The LCP carries great and shoots like holding onto an exploding credit card...

Yes, too be honest, I have no use for either the G42, G43, 43X or G48. Not that they aren't solid pistols in-and-of-themselves but they just don't stack up well with other pistols that have more capacity and/or better options.

The LCP/LCP II can be a little handful. I find that the extended magazine, if it provides a full three-finger grip, helps out quite a bit with managing recoil. So does the Hogue Handall. Both tames down the recoil to almost pleasant.
