After an opporunity to try various HK's at a recent 'HK' day at a local range, I'm thinking about purchasing a USP either full size or compact (yes, good marketing ideas work on those of us with minimal willpower when it comes to firearms).
However, I'm a bit confused about the HK variants. Are the variants available on both the full size and compact? Is variant 3 roughly equivalent to the the standard SIG classic configuration? It doesn't need to be identical, but I'm trying to get a sense of the function (I own a SIG 229). And, no, I wasn't paying close enough attention when I shot them at the range day; too much fun shooting, and the rep was kept pretty busy.
One last question; is one variant more prevalent than others? I'm not talking any sort of a statistical answer, but a sense from those of you who have a a broader experience of this than I do (also not considering left or right hand options, but more the funtional differences).
Thanks in advance.
