I own and one and must say that I love it! It is scary accurate at 25 yards and very accurate at 50 yards. I can't say how it performs at 100 yards because I have never fired it that far. Recoil is very mild. It is very, very lightweight. With the addition of weaver rails, there are lots of accessories are avialable for it -- tac lights, lasers, optics, vertical grips. Reliability is typical HK, meaning 100% reliable. There are two downsides. First is the 10 round mags, but you can buddy clip two together. Secondly is takedown. It's not the push pin typical of HK weapons. There are two allen head screws which need to be removed. It's a great and banned in Kali. Get it before it's banned anywhere else.

I am thinking of getting one but do not know
if it is legal in the state of California?
Please let me know. There is a good review about the HK .45 USC a while ago in the American rifle man. I hope it is legal in CA.

I was also looking hard at a USC carbine, but decided against it for several reasons...
foremost was the magazine limitation, cost and cost of ammo. After some hemming and hawing I bought this instead...

I figure 32 of 9 is better than 10 of 45, and that in the long run it is as good or better an investment

MPower made a good choice.
9mm would be easier to find in adverse conditions, and blow-back ARs are rock-solid reliable.
There are far more after market goodies for the ARs than the USC.

Haven't played with the USC carbine but I have played with the actual SMG from which it was derived. There's a writeup in our full auto forum if you care to look it up.
