I stopped by one of the LGS I frequent more than I should and casually asked if they had a High Power laying around. I've literally asked this question hundreds of time and never get a positive answer. The guy said come over to the new counter and check out the new Regent BR9. I was impressed with what I saw for $539 in the SS model. Pretty true to original model including less than silky smooth trigger and magazine safety, but had later external extractor. Fit and finish looked well done for a Turkish copy. The counter guy said he thought all parts where interchangeable with later high Power parts except firing pin which was a larger diameter. Didn't buy it because I had never heard of it before, but am going to take another look after reading reviews about handgun. Looked like it would still be a thumb web biter if you had beefy hands. Was wondering if anyone here had any first hand knowledge about the Regent BR9?
