For that price
totally! It's a cool gun but with a specific niche, it's worth even more if you get the shiny finish one. Compared to a USP tactical everything is substantially beefed up...you should hold the recoil spring in the Mk23. I know that you mentioned that you enjoy the smoothness of the USP. The Mk23 is in comparison a sloppy gun in handling
I don't think it's used nowadays but an interesting piece to collect.
