I'm an 82' model so you can only imagine how many many yards I mowed, leaves I raked, and how much snow I shoveled. My dad took all of my change and singles and bought this for me:

It was the beginning of a very expensive habit before I even hit puberty LoL. I'll never sell this one.
 
My first HK was an ID date coded 3 digit Hk 94. It was being worked on by a gunsmith, someone broke into his shop and took it and a few dozen other firearms from him. It was never recovered. :cry:
 
Welcome Andrew1182
That's a really low serial # USP45 = 006706 KE = 1994
My Oldest Son is 05/19/83

My 1st Hk was a P7M8
2nd USP45Tactical
3rd USP357c
4th USP40c Stainless
5th USP40c

I'm in Hk infancy stage & turn 55 this month
Sadly the last two are the only ones that I still have
BTW You're USP45 looks to be in great shape for a 94 = Low Miles

The two USP40cs are my only Hks currently

LoL, yea. If I'm not mistaken it was a first year import for the .45 USP. I saved mu money researching them coming through guns and ammo magazines and my dad helped me buy it for my first handgun. God only knows how many rounds it's seen at this point. I've bought one or two more along the way once I was of legal age on my own

Now I have my own son. This was last summer when he was 8 shooting my SP89 to MP5K-N conversion by TDyer with an S&H Sear

 
Very Cool Andrew.. He will remember that his whole life..
NICE!!
I love going to the KCR Machine gun shoot & watching the guy rip thousands of rounds of 308 thru the mini gun till the brass stacks up five feet high

That rig is mine. Got a transferable M16A2 as well that even more fun to watch him with. The down side is ammunition prices. He has been known to shoot a case a day no problem. Wasn't an issue until prices went crazy. Now we've had to temper out trips to not eat too deep into our cache. Tough times man! LoL

First HK?? It was a 91, but I don't remember when or any details. I've had so many since then.
 
My first HK handgun was a USP45T. I sold it for a tidy profit to fund my P7 fetish at the time, as I figured I could always buy another. I did replace it years later with one of @TooSixy 's unfired specimen's. Unfortunately, these new ones come with neutered match triggers. It still remains unmolested.

My first HK rifle was an SL8-6. Everyone loves to shoot that heavy sucker.

Excuse my ignorance but what is a neutered match trigger??
I also sold my USP45T @ a Huge profit & bought two 9mm revolvers IIRC along with the UTL etc.
I always thought the difference in the match trigger was the nickel plated sear spring & the trigger stop
Could be wrong..

IIRC, my first HK was a P30sk V1LEM. Very nice pistol and I actually carried it as my official off-duty carry for a while. That was one smoooooth trigger pull on that little beauty!

@TooSixy did some comparison. If I remember correctly, post BA date coded Tacticals only had the match trigger and match hammer. Prior year models however, also included the match hammer spring, match TRS and match nickel-plated sear spring.
 
G28 clone was my first in 2015 then the G36, after that it was color frame USP fever follow by Mk23 sickness. To be honest I am down to one now and realized I cant really afford them anymore. The accessories are the biggest drain on the wallet, have to get them all and it never ends. Still love the community and friends I have made. Cheers
