I was shopping for this particular pistol for a while. I couldn’t understand how different companies justified their pricing. Should have skipped all the shopping and came here 1st. Purchased it at Buds online arrived at my dealer in a few days, shot like a dream. As always I’m more than satisfied with Buds products, pricing, shipping and service. Love me some Buds

It's an HK...not much more to add. This is one fine .45 acp. Bud's pricing and delivery to my FFL was perfect. In the mid 1990"s, I owned a USP .45, which I foolishly traded off. It's been a long time since I had the USP, but I can say for sure, I like the ergonomics of this gun better.

Excellent weapon.

Famous HK quality. A little big for the 10 rnd capacity. Similar-sized guns offer a few more rounds, but the ergos are great. Very accurate.

Very well balanced. I changed the sights and put on Heine straight eights. Carried concealed in a Purekustom holster on a 6 day road trip. Very safe single double with decocker.

This is my Favorite pistol I own. This shoots so much more superbly than any other .45 caliber pistol. It has about the same recoil as my 9mm pistols due to a buffer tube on the Slide Spring Assembly that reduces felt recoil by approx. 30%. The HK 45 is like stepping into a luxury car after driving regular cars all your life. The ergonomics of the grip, with 3 interchangeable back straps, meld the gun into an extension of your arm. It has a great Dbl action trigger that is a pleasure to engage. HK is definitely in the category of “The finer things in life”. You cannot go wrong with an HK45!

HK45 Awesome gun for a good price. Fast shipping. Will continue to buy from Budsgunshop.com
Thanks

Great shooter as expected from H&K. This is my 5th H&K, but my first firearm purchase from Bud's. Every part of the transaction went as smooth as expected. I highly recommend the HK45 and Bud's.

I am very satisfied with the HK 45 that I recently purchased from Bud’s. The fit and finish of this pistol is superb! Took it “for a spin” the other day and I was very impressed with the shot placement that I was able to achieve with this model - very manageable recoil with a grip that feels like it was made for my hand! Great price, extremely fast shipping to my FFL made for a terrific buying experience...

Very happy with this HK45. I can't believe how well it fits my hand. I have 50 rounds of 230 gr. Ball ammo through it, and 50 rounds of Federal HST 230 gr. +P hollow points through it. Very pleasant to shoot, even with the +P ammo. No regrets here!

Product was shipped fast and arrived sooner than expected. This gun lives up to its reputation as being very high quality and shoots with an A1 performance. The first 150 that went through were federal 45 auto and went through perfectly. Some were a little a sticky/rough but that's to be expected with any new gun being broken in. All in all HK has a history of making some of the finest firearms around and this is no exception. Combined with Buds exceptional service (im not being paid to say this, Buds is just really awesome), i would say im extremely satisfied with this purchase and highly recommend the hk45 v1 for any shooter's arsenal.

As with most German firearms, fit and finish is spectacular. This firearm has a nice balance and feels real good in the hand, much like the 1911 style pistols. It is a full size pistol and not a good choice for concealed carry. A bit harder to hide than a 1911. But it’s a super nice pistol. I’d rate it a 10 for sure.

I'm a 1911 guy so I was a little unsure how I would like the SA/DA polymer .45. Any doubts I had were dispelled after I put a box of Magtech range ammo through it. It is a stretch to call Magtech precision ammunition, but it did give me nice little groups in and around the red at seven yards. Not bad for a new-to-me pistol, especially when I was comparing its trigger to the one on my match-grade 1911. I encourage anyone on the fence about the HK45 based on trigger or performance concerns to just go for it. The trigger could be improved but it's easy to get used to and the pistol performs very well.

Shoots great and has a good grip. Recoil with this gun is also fantastic. Love the quality.

What a gun! I've only put about 50 rounds down range so far, and the HK45 performed flawless, as one would suspect from a HK product. The gun is well balanced in the hand. Being able to customize the back strap is a big help. The grip has a great texture that makes holding on a cinch without being irritating. Accuracy is very good. I expect the gun is more accurate than this shooter. Aesthetically, the HK45 is a great looking gun. It's modernistic, but at the same time, not futuristic. Pictures just don't do it justice. The HK45 is a blast to shoot!

There are pistols and then there are professional grade pistols, This is professional grade. From fit and finish to function and form it's hard to beat HK quality. This is a weapon I would most definitely be comfortable carrying into battle.

Absolutely love this gun, my favorite handgun ever. Fits my hand perfectly with the stock grips and shoots extremely accurately right on the dot on the front site. Have about 2000 rounds through it and have had 0 malfunctions ever with several different kinds of ammo. Highly recommend. I also put the ambi lever on mine since I am a lefty.

This is my 5th Buds purchase. As I have come to expect, all worked out as planned. The purchase price was the best I found. The HK 45 is a great gun. I've had it on my want list for a while and just decide to pull the trigger,pun intended. The double action is not terrible but I need to work on it. The single action is fairly light. The reset is easy to find. My only issue is that the trigger fires much farther back than I'm use to compared to my other guns, although they are mostly striker fire. This is a great gun for range or home protection.

One of the best 45’s polymers out there! Only down side of an HK45 is the overall capacity. Buds delivered once again and i am pleased with this purchase!

A fantastic weapon and it shipped the day after payment was made thanks to Team Buds membership.

This gun is a real pleasure to shoot, and the accuracy is right on the money. I have shot about 600 rounds through mine, and have loved every second of it. The HK45 is a quality pistol, and with the new US made versions, they are reasonably priced. The only complaint I have about the gun is the DA trigger, which is awful, but does provide a ton of safety. Trust me there won't be and ND's with that DA trigger. Shooting from SA is great, and like I said previously, very accurate. For the price, I'm not sure there's a better .45ACP option on the market.

I got my hk45 from Buds a few months ago and it’s outstanding. I have shot about 600 rounds through it without any malfunctions. it’s also insanely accurate, I have shot this side by side with my 9mm with a red dot sight and this hk45 grouped better. Also the grips are better than most anything I can think of, I normally don’t like finger grooves but in this case HK actually did an excellent job on them. The luminescent sights are perhaps not as useful as night sights but way better than standard white dots. If you hit sights with a flashlight for 1 second they will have a usable glow for at least 30 minutes. The only thing about this gun that isn’t excellent is the trigger. It’s not a bad trigger, it’s just an average DA/SA trigger, it’s pretty light with some creep before it it breaks, but it’s smooth and totally usable. Honestly the biggest downside to this pistol is the magazine capacity, it was a trade off to make the grip thinner but I would have been happier with a higher capacity and a slightly thicker grip. Oh and good luck finding a holster for it that’s not $90. But overall this gun is excellent and way way better the glock 21.

It's been about 4 months since I received my HK45 from Buds and I have not been able to shoot it much since I travel out of town for work but it has been flawless at least for the 400rnds I put through it. That's really insignificant considering this pistol was tested and recorded to 50k rounds with only one malfunction and zero parts breakages. This was my first HK, and also the gun that made me change my view of what real quality and engineering is, in context to a handgun. I know some people don't like them but the luminous sights are great IMO. They are just like regular steel white dot sights but the can glow so bright that you may have illumination while just standing in the shade. I prefer these over many other factory sights especially Glock. I did have to adjust the rear sight (windage) with a single tap. It's the perfect home defense or SHTF battle pistol.

This was my dream weapon. I was extremely happy once I saw the price drop down to the six hundred and twenty- nine dollar price tag. However, the only disappointment was when I received the weapon the image from Buds Gun Shop website did not match what I purchased. The new American made HK45’s does not have the HK stamp on the Barrel and the serial number was not stamped on it either. Also, the writing on the left side of the slide was not there. I was told that all of the stamping was required by the German government. The U.S. government does not require that so all of my friends said that I don’t have a real HK45 bummer lol.

I remember purchasing a DAO the first year that the USP came out. No, this isn't the USP, but my point is I've been using HK's for a lot of years now. I had wanted to step away from my love of 1911's for just a bit, and decided not go back to HK to scratch the itch. I had decided to purchase either the P30L or HK45. It was the purpose of the weapon that made my decision for me. I wanted a pistol that was 100% dedicated to home defense. That way I could add all the attachments I wanted without having to constantly put them on or off if I was using the same weapon for daily carry. In the relatively cramped quarters of a home, knowing that most of my shots would be right on target, I opted for the 45 platform, put a weaponlight on it, and an RMR. The 1913 rail works perfectly, and the weapon is every bit as awesome as you expect from an HK, regardless of model. The one HUGE improvement I noticed over my older HK's was the trigger. They have come a long way! The triggers on the original USP's weren't great, nor were they bad, but the trigger on this HK45 actually surprised me. It is fantastic. Reliability wasn't a problem, even right out of the box. I put about 500 rounds through it over the first weekend to properly break the pistol in. I fed it every type of ammo, from match loads to low cost practice fodder, and it chewed them all up and spit them out, pun intended. Recoil was extremely manageable, and my larger hands favor a more beefy pistol like this, although it isn't unforgiving in smaller hands either. The few gripes I have about the weapon are all minor. First, the night sights. Although I am definitely a fan of night sites, they run out of illumination if they sit in the dark for too long, and that sort of defeats the purpose of having them. In addition, I like a different colored front site for quicker acquisition, which this configuration does not offer. The last two complaints are entirely my own fault, so they don't impact my rating at all. After I purchased the pistol, I instantly regretted not purchasing the tactical version so I could attach a surpressor to it. As a home defense gun, it is a logical addition. So i'll have to pick up a threaded barrel from HK, which will cost me another $238, but that's the price I pay for my lack of foresight. Lastly, the gun isn't pre-drilled for RMR optics. I don't fault HK for that too much, since that isn't exactly standard for any make, model, or manufacturer, but it is one of the few improvements I could see that would make this outstanding package even better. On the vendor side of things, Buds did a fantastic job. I traded in another weapon to offset some of the cost, and his staff made the process smooth as buttered silk! And, in terms of cost, this was about the best price I could find on the weapon, which is on par with their typically amazing prices.
