HK USP mags?

[wild_wild_wes]

I'm buying a USP Compact in 9mm, and want to stock up on mags. On the CDNN website, they have most HK mags at $39, but some at $9, but they say they are all "HK factory"...what is the deal with the cheap ones?

I would PM M4C member Greg Bell.

He seems to be very well informed on all things HK. He has already given me sound advice several times.

10 rounders vs full capacity. In case you didn't know, if you buy a full capacity HK mag from CDNN, they include a 10 round one for "free."

Are they all made to the same standards though?

Some 10 rounders have weak springs that will stop locking the slide back after a while. A couple of mine do. It's not the end of the world, and if it does happen you can always buy stronger springs from Wolff. I haven't bothered. Apart from that I haven't had any problems, I have 6 10 round mags. My 12 round mags have never had a problem at all. This may only apply to .45 full size USP mags, I don't have experience with USPs of other varieties.

Once in a while some really great deals happen at CDNN.

I bought 5 NIW HKUSP45C mags for $19.99 each a couple of years ago.
