Here's my favorite.My favorite 762 rifle is the M14 in the E2 stock.
Put a regular grip on it and mine is extremely similar to yours in all ways.Here's my favorite.
Build dates don't matter much. For the price, I'm most concerned with the amount of wear on the magazine. That tells me it has been used pretty significantly and does not warrant such a high price. I can buy a new unit for a couple hundred over that.I’m eyeing this that is somewhat local (living out west anything under a 1.5hr drive is local). Thoughts on the price and questions to ask?

Does build date make a difference?
I am only familiar with the military model so can't help you much. Mag wear is a concern regardless.I’m eyeing this that is somewhat local (living out west anything under a 1.5hr drive is local). Thoughts on the price and questions to ask?

.....now, one has to wonder how many guns end up with someone dropping the mag and putting it back in while dry firing and fondling it but DONT get shot alot?Good eyes on the mag wear. Quick check on gun broker shows a couple new ones at around the same price.
If you buy the Glock 41, you will have it for the trade in for the HK MK23 when you still need to scratch the itchLegit point, is it 3x better than a Glock 41 as an example? This is the biggest thing I’m struggling with.
I owned the USP .45; not too much different than the MK23 apart from size and weight.
I found the trigger very spongy - well made gun of course but didn't find anything special about it. Sold it after a while, I even had the 'special' HK tactical light. Used to jam on me when I had the light mounted regardless of how I gripped it.
The MK23 is HUUUUGE [they called it a 'hands gun' . . .]
But for HK fans its something to lust after. I'm happy with my G21 for hicap .45ACP firepower.
The MK23 was supposed to some magical proprietary recoil dampening technology.I had a USP 45. I really disliked it, one of the harsher polymer 45s it seemed. I found the Mk23 MUCH more 'shootable'...I dunno if it is a size thing, a weight thing, or a trigger thing (or all of the above), but I noticed a huge difference. I accede it could have been just me, most people I know who have the USP 45 really like it.
I own a Mark23, USP45 Tactical, USP45, USP45CT, and an HK45CT...
I love them all...
The Mark 23 is a unicorn gun for collecting and showing off to your friends. 25 years ago, it would have been an amazing home defense gun. But now, there are many better options, even if you only consider magazine capacity.
And, if you buy the Mark23 or USP45T, you still have to buy rail adapters to mount a modern tactical light...
The Mark23 is an amazing safe queen.
If you want an awesome HD gun in 45, buy a FNX45 Tactical (I have one of these too) or HK45CT and spend the extra money on a light and 1000rds of ammo...
Give the HK45CT a try. They call it a compact, but it still feels full size.Thanks for the input. I wanted to like the FNX45 but don’t. The grip texture is too aggressive, with gloves probably outstanding. I don’t have soft hands either I just found it off putting. Same goes for the FN SLP.
I had one and sold it. I now have a mark 24 and am thinking of selling it too. The 23 is AWESOME suppressed. It’s also freaking cool. I sorta regret selling it, but was in a spot where I wanted all my handguns to be concealable. Plus, badassness aside, the 24 (Hk45c) does 90% what the 23 does in a smaller package. If you want, pm me your cell and I’ll text you a video of the 23 suppressed with an obsidian 45
Maybe an O ring to keep the thread protector in place?Put 50 rounds through it and started to get the hang of it at the end. Really easy to shoot quickly.
Couple questions for those with experience:
Do you use your trigger finger on the mag release?
What do you do to keep the thread protector in place?
Yep I heard similar. I didn’t even mean to do a clone build but I got a great deal on the 45c and then an even better deal on a LAM
