You are talking at least 800.00 or more brand new...Take a look at Springfield Armory XD Series. About 550 or less depending on where you get it. Reliable, durable, etc.
Extra mags are about 25.00 each.

Count on spending at least $800-900, depending on trigger/decocker/safety package (what your department allows) and night sights, etc. if you want them.
Also, congrats on your decision to join the brotherhood of law enforcement; you are about to embark on a very challenging but truly rewarding and important career Secondly, you are extremely smart for going with an H&K as a sidearm. H&K, along with SIG and maybe Colt, are the only companies I would trust my life on 100%
I have had the misfortune of being issued some crappy sidearms in my day (Berretta, S&W, etc) along with some OK ones (Glock), but the best guns I have ever owned personally and professionally are SIG's and H&K's. All of their weapons are rock-solid, tight, accurate, and safe shooters right out of the box and 10 years later. I own several H&K guns and they are all superior in every way to 95% or the weapons out there.
You will not go wrong in any way by choosing to spend the extra $$$ on a USP 40 vs. a Glock, Springfield XD, S&W M&P, or any of the other inferior pistols that cost less. If you want the BMW/Mercedes/Lexus of guns, you have to pay for it, and the money will be well spent.
You can't put a price on your saftey as a L.E.O., and the last thing you want is a gun that may jam, misfire, or fail in any way, a gun that is spending more time with the armorer than in your holster, or a gun that you can't shoot accurately. If you like the feel of the USP and shoot it accurately, you can't go wrong.
