USP and USP Elite

[Bigscratch]

I have a USPf 45 and I really love it, but since HKs are like potato chips, can't have only one, I am considering a USP 45 Elite. I was wondering if people can share their experiences with the USP elite. Maybe elaborate a bit about the things you like, and if any, things you dislike or would change on the Elite.
Thanks

The Elite is a target version of the USP Full Frame with a longer barrel, a matched barrel and slide, match trigger, trigger overtravel stop, and longer site line. They are great shooters.

I have a several USPs, including a couple Elites and always find myselft shooting my Experts more then anything. They just feel better balanced and to me shoot just as well.

My Elite is the most accurate gun I own. I only wish my ability was on par. I have no negative comments. I did add a Hogue slip-on Handall to the grip, which is a little more comfortable.

Same here. My Elite (it is 9mm though) is my most accurate. Even better than my Experts. It just looks a little wierd with the long sculptered slide. Still love shooting it and have no plans to get rid of it.

I have the Expert, Tac, USP, and Elite. While in my hands there is no question the Expert, Tac, and Elite shoot better than the standard USP, I suspect it is because of the match trigger and better sights for paper shooting. As far as the Tac, Elite, and Expert, six of one, half dozen of the other(s). They feel and shoot the same to me. The Tac shoots just as well but since it has the shortest sight radius of the three, some may find the longer sight radius of the Elite to be a welcomed addition with the Expert falling near the middle.
