I just got an email from Zephyr Paintball indicating that the HK45 is now in stock. I was so excited I forgot my login for their site. I then went to Airsoft GI and they also had it in stock so I ordered one. I think I've been as anxious for this release as everyone else has been for Kriss Vector. Laugh I just wanted to let everyone know here, before they sell out. www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?products_id=10726

I still think it looks extremely ugly, along with the ATP.

Bite your tongue! I have one as a carry gun.

At least the HK45 is based on a real gun. It's not my cup of tea, but it could definitely grow on me.

Any hand guns with finger grooves just look yucky to me, the Glock is borderline.

I know, but sex appeal is just as important as ergonomics to me when it comes to guns.

I know, but sex appeal is just as important as ergonomics to me when it comes to guns. This is exactly why I like the gun. Glocks to me are too boxy, and a sin. Laugh. I'm also a fan of the Kimber 1911.

There's something we can agree on. I like my 1911's modern, and with that slight hint of tactical, but definitely with wood grips. 2011's are ugly and disgusting, as are all competition pistols.

It is serriously depressing how much the trades on this gun suck. Also, something just doesn't feel quite right. I'll have to compare it to the RS one when I get home. The trigger feels good, and correct. Maybe I just need to install the other backstrap. Edit: So when I got home I changed out the back strap, for the medium one. Now it feels right. It's still not heavy enough in the tip of the gun, since it gets a lot if its weight from the magazine. This is to be expected, from what I've found with all GBBs. I would have to say that it weighs as much as my real steel HK45, if I remove the bullets from the magazine. The trigger pull feels great, to me. It seems to be about the right length, in double and single action modes and the weight of the pulls is actually pretty good as well. Maybe a little lighter, but it feels pretty good. The safety/decocker lever is quite a bit easier to thumb up and down than the real steel. It has quite a satisfying blow back action. It's hard to explain, it's just real crisp. The gas efficiency is ridiculous. The magazine holds 28 rounds and I was able to shoot three magazine loads without regasing. That's 84 rounds on one fill of gas! As depressing as the trades are, since they aren't the right size and they are blazing white, the rest of the functionality and feel of the gun makes up for it. I have not gotten a chance to chrono it yet, well actually was just having too much fun shooting it to stop and chrono. It did have a slip of paper in the box that said it chrono'd at 345FPS.
