I was wondering if anybody knows about the new H&K USP.  I think that
USP stands for "Universal Service Pistol".  From what I read in Guns &
Ammo,

 - it will come in 9mm and .40S&W
 - it looks/acts like a Sig
 - it has a polymer frame
 - it is "inexpensive", by H&K's usual standards

I heard that it will be introduced at the "Shot" show, whatever that
is.  Does anybody know more?  Also, is there anything else coming out
that is new from other companies like Steyr?
