yeah I remember the disqualification of the S&W. In typical bureaucratic fashion the army said the S&W would be admissible if S&W chromed their SS barrels just to satisfy the requirement. *sigh*

oooh - a full sized .45 USP is a pistol that's definitely in my future somewhere. Until I owned and shot my USP-C I wasn't crazy about the idea of a .45 that's larger than one ought to be. But, while it is a big gun, it's not nearly as large as I had thought - the oversized trigger guard seems to enhance the sense of bulk. And I'm willing to bet the USP is every bit as tough (and probably tougher) than my USP-C which I adore. And good choice on the .45. I wouldn't get one in any caliber smaller than that. The 12 rd magazines are a big attraction for me.
