Questions about KSC USP .45

[Kos-Mos]

The silencer is marked for AEGs because it is 14mm treads.

The USP and MK23 use 16mm treads to match the real one better.

You will most likely need one of the adapters if you want to use any "molded" weapon light, because the rail is not 20mm. The reason why Shock can use a scope ring is that the bracket is not attached to the rings, and allow a larger rail.

The VFC one work with anything. It basically goes in the UPS rail grooves and adds a 20mm rail right under (think how you add the rail to a Marui 5.1).

To what I know, you can use any "Tactical" slide as long as it is for the same size of UPS (.45 vs. Compact). Same goes for outer barrels.

Just FYI, make sure you know what KSC system your USP is. A System 7 USP can only use System 7 slide, the old one wouldn't work, and vise versa. Now within the system, any USP .45 slide should be interchangeable, and any USP Compact slide should be interchangeable.

+1 for the VFC adapter, I've had the KA and VFC ones, and I like the VFC one better, its just a simpler system. If you want a dedicated USP light, you need to go with Insight M2 UTL, which is made for USP(for $130-ish USD on eBay), or if you can find it, Tanaka makes one for airsoft....

Thanks for the response, guys. And thanks RacingManiac I am aware of the system7-nonsystem7 compatibility issues. I am leaning towards the VFC as well. It's less bulky, simpler, and its metal makes me feel better than KA's ABS.
