HK USP45 Compact V1 .45 ACP Semi-Auto Pistol – 3.78" Barrel, DA/SA, 2013 German Production
The USP45 Compact V1 blends HK’s proven recoil-reducing polymer frame with a hammer-fired DA/SA system and a left-side safety/decocker.

The Variant 1 configuration places the safety/decocker on the left side for intuitive thumb control, while allowing nine other trigger conversions if future needs change.
A 3.78-inch cold-hammer-forged barrel uses HK’s polygonal rifling for longer life and easier cleaning, backed by a rated 20,000-round service life.
The polymer frame incorporates an HK proprietary accessory rail and a captive flat recoil-spring assembly specific to the USP Compact line, reducing felt recoil and simplifying takedown.
The nitro-carburized slide features rear serrations for positive grip and an extractor that doubles as a tactile and visual loaded-chamber indicator.
Proof marks include the “CD” date code, CIP N, DE country mark, and HKI – Columbus, GA import stamp, confirming 2013 German manufacture for the U.S. market.
