Earlier this year I bought a HK45. Although I have no plans for the 45 Super cartridge, I keep reading that HKs can handle this round.
On Wikipedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.45_Super, they state "Manufacturers such as Heckler & Koch GmbH currently offer pistols rated to fire .45 Super "out of the box"."
My owner's manual says the pistol can shoot 45 ACP +P but never mentions 45 Super. So I decided to write HK and ask about this. This is the answer I received.
I hope this clarifies things for others as it did for me.May 15, 2023, 09:08 ADT
Good morning
Our .45 ACP pistols were designed around the .45 ACP cartridge, both standard pressure ACP +P. We have never tested our pistols with .45 Super, nor were they designed around the cartridge. As such, we cannot endorse the usage of .45 Super ammunition in our pistols.
