Nice, except for the baby poop color of the frame. Looks to be restricted length, too.

The top one is fullsize and the second one is compact version. Looks to be LEM variant.

The color I think is FDE.

I didn't buy the Magazine, but I read the whole article

Looks as though two experienced gunsmiths/ competitive shooters consulted on the project called the "HK45".
Larry Vickers (.45 pistol smith), and I forget the other guys name, but he is a longtime IPSC shooter.
A few things were moved around on the pistol, make it better for recoil/balance, more reliable as well. The front of the pistol was covered in black residue from the number of rounds being shot out of it. I guess they tried making it jam, weak hand, on its side, upside down..... Good combat pistol. Might be the next US military sidearm.

Do you have a link to the article?

Interesting that they have lowered the amount of texture on the grip...maybe they have finally made the grip less slippery with less texture. I think thats what really bugs me the most about my USP, is the lack of rubber or ability to easily change the grip. Maybe that crud colour looks better in real life.
