This page contains some of the reviews I've collected of the Walther P99 vs other pistols including the H&K USP and USP Compact. They are both excellent pistols, but this page is mainly in response to those that say the USP and USP Compact are more accurate (or "Twice as accurate") as the P99.
This statement is blatantly false, and these reviews help to disprove that statement. Magazine reviews of the HK USP Compact 9mm are few and far between, with the .40 more prevalent. As you can see from the statistics below (being as they are), in only one direct comparison case, did the USP Compact .40 best it's P99 counterpart. I rest my case...
