I do not own one just for the reason everyone and their brother(my brother has several, duty actually makes him carry one), has, wants or knows about them.
I hate fads and being a follower or owning or wanting something just cause everyone else has one.
It bothers me, its like the AK. You tell someone 2 years ago I have a Daniel Defense M4 v3((now they sorta made a name) and they say a what the heck...is that like a AK or something? Or tell them you have a M28/76, they have no idea. They have no appreciation for a well made accurate rifle.
But tell them you have a AK-47 they go all crazy,...but careful, get specific Romanian, Yugo, Norinco, MAK, etc. you lost them again.

Some of the Gen 4's I think it is, have spring issues...or had. They are great Austrian made guns, but not the best of the best or really for me.

I'll add what others have said:

They are highly reliable.

At a reasonable price tag.

The "Hollywood and Police effect".

They are very, very simple; like in 5 main pieces-that's it!

They are accurate.

They are "modular" (many calibers and aftermarket accessories).

Everyone knows what they are.

Duty makes me carry one too. I like the Hk USP series better myself and I would pay the extra hundred bucks for the USP's.

My uncles county makes them carry a Glock now(they use to be able to carry anything they wanted so long as armory approved and checked it out)
My brother is made to carry one on duty in his area.

My close friend department makes them carry H&K USP(he was detective, now shift supervisor), issues them USP C's and that is the nicest handgun ever, I love it.

My favorite USP is the USP45c. I have one that I had the hammer converted to the "spurred hammer" variant. Then I switched the floorplates out from the flat floorplates to the extended floorplates. Made it one heck of smaller variant USP. I hate those darn "smooth hammers" on the USP compact series, but love the gun. Luckily the conversion is there from Hk or I would have probably dismissed the entire USPc series.

I guess my next favorite USP is the USP9f's. I have three of those with a bunch of 15 round mags. I again replaced all the flat floorplates on the mags with the extended floorplate mags.

The extended floorplates just make the grip on these better.

I don't mind the Glock 22 that my Department issues me. It's worked just fine, but I prefere the Hk's.
