Whats a good price for an HK45c? My LGS has them for $1099 but there a bunch of ripoff artist that cater to fudds and mall ninjas at $1500 a bushy. If any MN users see this I’m not apposed to doing a FTF next month for a used one in good condition. I’m looking for DA/SA with safety for AIWB carry and have NO desire to use my glock for this.
750-850 used
Of course it all depends on if its a US or German model…
Here is one another member has up. https://www.m4carbine.net/showthread.php?t=99180
Wasn’t even aware there was a German model. Let me guess. It’s the better one. Any parts differences between the two or is it just quality differences?
If he still has it mid next month I’ll probably take him up on it. I can’t afford one till then. Thanks for the heads up.
I’ve had both and can’t honestly see a difference but there are people out there that swear the german model is better and worth a premium…
New they are around $925-1k depending on night sights or not. I paid $900 ish for a night sight one a couple weeks ago. I would have to check the exact amount because I bought a bunch of stuff that day and don’t remember the exact amount. If need be I’ll check for you.
If at all possible I would buy the night sight model as the other sights are horrible and almost have to be ripped of immediately. The night sights are actually usable until you can put some proper sights on it. Heines seem to own the market on the Hk 45 and P30.
I’m pretty particular on sights but I agree, night sights need to be on my pistols before I even shoot them. I haven’t looked into what sights are even available for these yet. Could you post a pic of the night sights that came on it? I’d most certainly be interested in what you paid, thanks.
Of course, it’s German! :lol:
I’ll get better pics for you when I get home but here is a start. You will see that they are a different profile than the glow in the dark pieces of shit like on the P30 below. There are very few options when you are talking about aftermarket sights for the Hk45/Hk45C and Heine is pretty much the best option out there…



I agree with D90, the stock sights are next to useless. The factory mep night sights are decent, but I’d rather Heinies…
BTW, Love the HK45C
Just looks mean!
Where are the US models made?
New Hampshire
Seriously, I have a German 45C and an American factory full size 45. Both of these guns appear equal in quality to me. While I’m happy my C says Germany on the frame I can honestly say that in no way would I be disappointed had it been a US production pistol.
The full size has been through two high round count pistol classes and thousands of rounds beyond that. Not a single bobble of any kind.
Oh ok…same as Sig I do Believe.

I hear ya…I have been shooting the same ‘stock’ Full Size USP 45 for about 10 or 11 years and I have never been given any reason to worry about it failing. It hasn’t missed a beat. I am wanting to get a HK45 this summer though…time for an upgrade!
You won’t regret it at all, I don’t think. It’s a very nice pistol.
It should also be noted that the rail SUCKS balls. You will not be able to use a SF WML unless you want to bastardize it and have part of it hanging off your gun.
It appear the TLR3 will fit, and the, “to be released SF mini” will fit. Personally I’m not putting a $75 unproven light on my gun. I am thinking of adding the new Crimson trace laser I saw (if it works with an Hk45C) until a proper light comes out for it.
I’m really surprised that Hk made such a stupid design mistake on such a well thought out, and well built gun like the Hk 45C. Why they would put a rail on this gun, that doesn’t work with basically anything on the market (for the most part), is a mystery to me (other than because they hate us).:blink: A proper rail could have easily been achieved on this pistol.
I know you gotta take the good with the bad and all, but damn this pistol is damn near perfect so it pisses me off… I’m just keeping it real, so don’t throw rocks at me through your computer screen. :help:
Are the rail issues the same for both HK45 and compact? I’ve yet to get my paws on either.
Just the C’s…
