Besides the HK USP 45, and the S&W 625 revolver, are there any other guns that can safely fire the .45 Super round?
Thank you!

The USP45 does. That is all that really matters :)

Now go forth and purchase. Pick me up one, while you're at it ;)
 
Springfield V-16 .45 Super.

Longslide. Thin. Sexy. Shiney. Seductive. Classic lines. Big Boom. What's not to like? (Other than the price of the ammo.)
 
STI builds a gun now that is designed to shot it and 450 SMC. A high-cap 45 Super - life is good. Too bad that retail was like $2000 something!
 
The USP45 does? Great, I just saw an ad in the paper where someone was selling his for $450. I'd better call quick.
 
Individually my guns in 45 acp:
1) Para Ordanance P10 reached +P and gets recoil spring bind
2) Colt Commander reached 45 Super and springs at a limit
3) Patriot past 460 Rowland with 42 pound spring set.
4) 1903 Turkish Masuer 45acp has reached primer fall out.
