SIG P226 or HK USP9 – which one would you rather have in combat?

[Irfan]

If you were going to a gun-fight which one of these two would you rather like to have with you and why: HK USP9 or SIG P226? Both in 9mm of course. :D

[Alpha Sierra]

Having fired both, SIG hands down. My friend's USP9 is almost unshootable due to its gargantuan proportions.

If I had a third choice it would be S&W Military & Police over both of those two.

Well, I shoot my P226's very well and they are reliable. But I do love my USP 45's and I shoot those well too. However I do NOT have a USP 9mm, and I've only fired 10 rounds out of one.

Since I am in California and 10 rounds is the limit for me. I'll take the P226. At least I won't have to wait 10 days to get my gun.

But in all honesty, I think either or gun will do.

[THE FROG]

Easy answer! The P226!

[The Dumb Gun Collector]

Glock 17. But between the two choices USP.

[gkanga]

Definitely USP. I shoot my USP better than my 226.

My preference would be for a Sig P226. However, either pistol would work just fine in combat and would be equally effective.

[brushy bill]

SIG if I could get replacement parts. HK if not.

[Marcus L.]

It's a toss-up in terms of durability and reliability. What it would boil down to is your personal preference. I'm partial to Sigs myself.

[kmrtnsn]

Having both been issued SIGs and HKs and owning both SIGs and HKs I'll take a USPc for combat, thank you very much.

[gtmtnbiker98]

Although I like both, I feel like the HK would be more durable over the long haul.

[Alpha Sierra]

If I was going to a gunfight I would bring a rifle and many friends with rifles.

If I ended up in a gunfight without looking for one, what I pull will most likely be an M&P9.

Enough of these kind of threads please.
