LTT USP

Langdon Tactical Technologies (LTT) is best known for selling semi-custom versions of Beretta firearms, and has recently branched into other models. Landgon is now offering its LTT treatment to the Heckler & Koch USP pistol. Langdon Tactical Technologies is offering an upgraded version of the .45 ACP USP 45 and the 9mm USP 9C variants. The Arizona-based company already offers customization on the hammer-fired HK P30 pistol. The HK USP came on scene during the early 1990s with the original .40 S&W USP 40 variant. Arguably the most important upgrade or customization that LTT is offering for the new USPs is an optics-cut slide, as these simply didn’t exist during the early 90s. Because these new HK variants are semi-custom, LTT customers have several options and specific tweaks they may select when ordering an LTT HK USP pistol.

Pistol frame options include the USP 45, a double action/single action pistol in .45 ACP with a 4.41 long barrel and an overall length of 7.91 inches. There is also the USP 9C Compact (V1) pistol, which is a double action/single action 9mm pistol with a barrel length of 3.58 inches and an overall barrel length of 6.81 inches. Available for either pistol is the LTT RDO slide cut which includes the installation of an adapter plate with forward or rear-mounted backup iron sights and a matching black serrated front sight. The backup iron sights are a lower-third co-witness to the red dot.

Trigger Options include the standard polymer HK trigger or a Gray Guns Flat Trigger that replaces the standard curved plastic over-molded trigger with an all-steel flat-faced trigger for reduced overtravel and an improved trigger break. Both of these come standard with a trigger workover from LTT.
