Does anyone know of a range in No. VA or MD that rents a USP 9mm? I would like to try one since I have thought of it as possible purchase. Thanks. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Democracy is 2 Wolves & a Lamb debating the lunch menu.

I would try Blue Ridge Arsenal. I think they are your best bet. Maybe SharpShooters in Lorton. ============================================ Photographs: https://photobucket.com/u/photoman12001 ----------------------------------- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/photoman12001/ ----------------------------------- YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/photoman12001/videos | |||

Elite shooting in manassas has a p30, but no USP Wish I'd seen this a month ago. I just sold my last USP. I would have gladly met you at Elite and let you shoot mine Good luck! —————————————————— If the meek will inherit the earth, what will happen to us tigers? | |||

I just came from a session at SharpShooters; lots of rentals and they have a few H&Ks for sale. They may have the USP to rent; you could give them a call or e-mail. | |||

Thanks for the suggestions. I checked Sharpshooters, BRA, & Elite Shooting but if they have the USP it is in 40 S&W. Something about the 9 that they do not keep in stock for rental. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Democracy is 2 Wolves & a Lamb debating the lunch menu.

That sucks. Just a guess, but maybe they picked up .40S&W pistols cheap with the recent flood to the used market. It would make sense to use them for rentals. ============================================ Photographs: https://photobucket.com/u/photoman12001 ----------------------------------- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/photoman12001/ ----------------------------------- YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/photoman12001/videos | |||

I own a USP 45 and I've shot a USP 9. There isn't a lot of difference. The USP's dual recoil spring does a good job of soaking up the recoil. Just shoot the 40 with some 180 grain fmj. It will give you a good intro to the fire control system. "Like a horse has its rider, and the sky has its moon, a man has his loneliness, mistaken as pride." -Longmire | |||

Thanks Billy346. How does the USP 9 compare to the 226 for recoil, if you ever shot a 226? I have a 226 MK25 and the recoil is very mild even with my tedernitis. The 226 is a bit heavy for CCW at 34 oz. empty. My P30L at 27 oz. is more comfortable for CCW. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Democracy is 2 Wolves & a Lamb debating the lunch menu.

Try Maryland Small Arms range ... you never know. | |||

Tried Elite Shooting, BRA, Silver Eagle, Sharpshooters, Maryland Small Arms Range, and even a few north of Baltimore City but to no avail. I imagine that with the release of the P30's and VP9 series the USP 9 is not as popular. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Democracy is 2 Wolves & a Lamb debating the lunch menu.
