    HK USP .45F Mag Question

    Hey all...Recently I purchased a USP .45F for my first handgun. I live in CA so the mags are 10 rounds. I always thought that the standard USP mags have flat base plates, but mine happened to be extended, similar to the tactical mags. I saw 10 round tactical mags on CDNN and was wondering if they are identical to the mags that came with my gun. I have a few questions:
    1. Will the tactical mags work perfectly with the standard USP?
    2. Why did my USP come with extended floor plates? are they the tactical ones?
    3. What are the advantages/disadvantages of the tactical ones compared to the standard?
    4. Is $20 per mag and $20 for the shipping on the whole order a reasonable price? I plan on purchasing 3, so it would total to be $80 for 3 mags

    Thanks all.

    CDNN is great and if you live out of state they give you a free 10 rounder with every hi-cap you buy. 20$ each is sure a lot better than they were before they lifted the ban on hi-caps. It used to be 50$ for a 10 rounder then. CDNN is highly recommended by everyone who I've talked to who has used them.

    The extended base plate fits fine though the plastic is of a different formula than the old flat base plates and sometimes cracks at the tabs. They are easier to seat though and that is why I bought the extended base plates.

      Someone told me that the USP .45F tactical 10 rounder mags sometimes go on sale for $10 on CDNN...Can anyone confirm this, or have seen this?

        Just had to add CDNN is a great company to buy from, fast service and great products. I haven't been able to find a place that will beat their prices on factory mags.

          I too could use some new factory HK USPf 45 mags. Any other good sources to check out besides CDNN??

          Thanks.

            They sell the .40 and 9mm's at the $10 price, but I've never seen USP .45 mags from them for less than the $20 price.

            CDNN is a good place. Cheap and easy.

            I prefer the "tactical" .45 mags. They're much easier to seat and hold. Unless you have monstrous hands (I have really big hands) you likely won't need the "extra size" added to the grip.
