I played a lot of Metal Gear Solid (PlayStation game) and this is another on my unicorn list. But I tried 1 and it was very uncomfortable to shoot. Where my support hand thumb goes (thumbs forward grip) ends up right on the slide release. So looks super cool, but feels like shit.

Plus mags are expensive if you can find them.

Also considered FNX45 tactical
But grip felt blocky and just too big for me. Just a big gun
The HK45 isn't small either, but it felt more comfortable to me
And the HK was a few hundred cheaper than the FN

while awaiting the HK45 being in jail for 14 days, I figure I'll buy a couple more magazines for it.  it comes with 3
so I search for the mags, and wow.  cheapest I can find is 37-40  bucks a piece but these are not in stock.  got a email when 1 place had them in stock but 1 day and they sold out.  HK ain't cheap I guess. at least for this gun they ain't cheap at all
but I find some for 50 bucks, so I ordered 2.  they better be lined with 24kt gold   8)

$40 isn't bad for HK mags.

I guess I'm becoming a HK fanboi.
Got the full size already, now the HK45 compact
The compact comes with 8 round mags but the full size 10 round ones work too, just sticks out a little. Maybe carry with the 8 round mag and 10 round back up mag  :geekdanc:

going to see how this belt clip works out on 1 of my Safariland holsters
I've tried the belt loops and the paddle, maybe this is the Goldie Locks of the 3
