I like 1911's and CZ's. I carry cocked-and-locked. I cannot stand the DA/SA and decocker on my duty Sig, but whatever.
The only .45ACP pistol I own is my great-uncle's Colt M1911 made in 1918. For obvious reasons, I don't shoot it much. But I've fallen in love with the caliber and want a new pistol in .45 that fits my personal preference: cocked-and-locked. I also want something more modern than a 1911 since I have one of those and I want more boolits in my gun.
I've settled on the HK USP 45. Only issue is how damn expensive they are; I can either afford an HK, or I can afford to eat for a month.

UPDATES AND SHIT!
>I don't want anyone to steal my shit It's been brought to my attention that a few /k/ommrades are concerned about bringing their guns and gear for fear of theft. This will be my 3rd NuggetFest I've hosted and I can say that we did not have a single problem with the last 80 NuggetFest attendees or their hundreds of guns, thousands of boolets and plenty of gear.
However, if you'd like a little extra security you have two easy options.
#1 Bike lock/rifle cable. Run the cable through the trigger/magazine well, etc of your firearms and lock them together. It's pretty fucking hard to stealthily walk off with 2 Mosins, an SKS and an AR all chained together.
#2 Small Luggage lock. The small locks people use to lock their suitcases and luggage at the airport will work fine for locking the zippers together on your tent. That way only the you, the keyholder, have access to your tent and the weapons/gear/ammo inside.
Remember, these are merely for you peace of mind. We have NEVER had an issue with integrity at NuggetFest.

A while ago I saw a pic in an operator thread that showed two guys standing on a mountain top, wearing ponchos and looking cool as fuck. Something tells me they might have been British (possibly holding L85's)... Anyone has it?
Also, can somebody tell me what's the name of the uniform in pic related?

So I've had interest in a pistol caliber carbine/PCC for awhile now. I'd like just a general PCC that is fairly durable/reliable and that I could easily get a few thousand rounds through without having to replace tons of parts.
I have always been wary of Kel-Tec (plus their Sub 2000s are fairly rare in my area).
I would rather not go on a journey across space and time to get a Camp 9 or Camp 45 or Ruger PC9 (although I'd love to have any of them).
Also, I've looked into the MechTech Glock carbine upper, but from what I've seen they are really range toys and not built with the best material choices for certain parts to last through rigorous use.
Also, Beretta CX4, looked into it, but not much, isn't very available in my area.
From what I've seen, the Taurus is available and (if the reviews are at least somewhat true) actually a decent gun. Bad news: 10 round mags and no plans for domestic production of any higher capacity. Also, thumbhole stock (easily solved, though).
>> Long story short, anyone have any actual experience with one of these? Recommendations?
