3. Non owners bashed both of them........
You missed a few
4. Beretta owners choose Beretta but like the KT concept
5. Glock owners choose KT
6. AR project lovers choose AR uppers
7. Jews choose Uzi
8. Rednecks choose MAC's
9. Some love Sterlings while others want Sten
We own Glocks so we went with a KT. For the overall price none are better than the Beretta Storm. AR SBR's are sweet.
As for HP, I personally could never own any HP product.
As for the KT, we got one of the infamous "front sight is canted" models. A known problem. Gun has to go back to be fixed. In my case, I removed the front sight. That can be a point for the HP.
The HP will be easier to jazz up. If you want to add anything to the KT, the ability to fold will fight you from the start. Keep the KT simple or spend money on it to make it more like............other guns. Guns you can buy for the same $$ when you compare KT base price plus cost of add ons, and they will shoot better.
Folds and uses your hi cap handgun mags, KT wins. If these are non issues for you, I say get something else. KT has a lot of recoil in a 3lb gun so not fun for high round count days on some shooters. _________________
