i like sigs dont get me wrong but i want a .45 and last i checked they were just starting to come out with them. as a rule of thumb i never buy first gen guns from anyone for several reasons. as for h&k i would love to own a usp compact 45 but they are more expensive than the para. btw the specific model i was looking at was the hawg 45

Not exactly...the P220 has been out in .45acp for decades! Now the P250 IS new this year so you might want to wait a little to see how the bugs & supply chain fall out.

Try the XD. The compact 45 comes in a couple configurations--compact 4" or compact 5" barrel. You then get the choice of using the flushfit 10 rnd mag, or the full size mag with spacer, and get 13rnds. It carries and conceals rather well even in the 13+1 set up, at least with a good holster. I love the new Comptac MTAC!

Springfield has better customer service should you ever need it, too.

I vote XD45 compact over the Para Hawg.
