LAPD also uses the Kimber TLE II 1911. (They call it the LAPD SWAT Custom, but it's just a TLE II purpose-build for the LAPD). They used to just use confiscated 1911s they had and fix 'em up a bit. | |||

Discussion
This is a great, affordable, light, accurate, and reliable handgun. It has been my BUG for 9 years and I wouldn't have it any other way.
- Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but, "affordable"? Surely you concede that a new USP costs more than any other polymer-framed service pistol on the market (and often more than some steel-framed pistols)? -MT2008 14:00, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
Well yes the USP is expensive but the old fart has gotta point, it's a pretty awesome gun.
Without a doubt my favorite tactical handgun
My favorite is the Expert model
- I would buy a USP45 in a second if they did something about the trigger-S&Wshooter
I have a question, is the USP Match just a regular USP with the compensator? Are there any othere differences? Is the compensator removable?
It has target sights, an adjustable trigger, and the barrel is extended. The compensator can be removed, but doing so leaves you with a rather awkward looking barrel. It also has the same rubber o-ring around the barrel that the Mk. 23 has.--PistolJunkie 18:24, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
I love the gun except it's got one squeeky ass trigger.
LAPD service weapons
Is it legal for LAPD to use USPs in real life or was it just made up for 24?
It's not an official issue weapon, at least according to Wikipedia. Only the Beretta 92, various S&W Automatics and Glocks. The Wierd It 20:17, 24 September 2010 (UTC)
Wikipedia is not a reliable source for information, because it is a Wiki like IMFDB. --L.J. Gibbs 19:11, 5 November 2010 (UTC)

Slide
Does the USP have a stamped or milled slide? I've heard it both ways. -Anonymous
