I just bought a USP 45 and have been looking around for spare mags and found a site that states they have mags for a USP Tactical. Will the Tactical mags work in a standard USP fullsized 45? Thanks!!!

Fullsize mag will fit in other fullsize guns...but not in the SOCOM
COngrats on the new HK! ;)

PS...those Tac mags you mentioned...are those 12 rounders? :confused:
 
Either the 10 or 12 rounders will go in either pistol. You might have already gathered that, sorry if I'm being redundant, but I wasn't sure.

The major difference in the full size mags is the drop plates on them. The tactical has an extended plate and the standard is a smaller plate. Personally I use the larger ones.
Just to elaborate on what SoCal posted: They are totally different mags. The baseplates are locked in by different "mechanisms", they can't be exchanged from one mag to the other (ie. make a 10 rounder into a 12 rounder by switching baseplates).

Thanks for all the responces, they have been very helpful. I will go ahead and order a couple. Be safe.
