This USP .45 is a 2004 Taupe Limited Edition, 1 of 500, with the AE date code confirming its year of manufacture. It bears the Ulm antler proof and N nitro proof, along with the Heckler & Koch, Inc., Sterling, VA import mark. The frame is molded with the Made in Germany marking, and the serial numbers match on the slide, barrel hood, and importer label.
The full-size platform uses a 4.41 in barrel and a double-stack design with 12-round capacity. It runs a DA/SA system with both a manual safety and decocker, paired with a curved trigger and a spurred external hammer. The ambidextrous paddle-style magazine release supports intuitive operation.
Sighting is via factory 3-dot night sights with a Meprolight Tru-Dot rear. The slide is matte black with rear serrations, and the taupe polymer frame defines this limited variant. The proprietary USP accessory rail is integrated into the frame.
Grip surfaces include textured panels with vertical ribs on the frontstrap and checkering on the backstrap, plus a lanyard slot. The color contrast of the taupe frame and black slide, along with the German proofs and date code, underscores the model’s limited-run appeal and clean presentation.
