The lack of an ambi safety is a concern but a few companies offer ambi safeties for Hi Powers in the mid $50 range. From the reviews I've read it seems that Springfield has tried to stay within original specs so aftermarket parts should work with little or minimal fitting.
Always wanted a Hi Power but never enough to actually buy one, especially since the prices started escalating. Self defense pistols have come a long way since 1935 so I see it as more of a range gun/just have it to have it kind of pistol like a full on military 1911A1, although if someone wanted to carry one it would still work as well as it always did. Nice to see a quality made classic firearm available again.
Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery.
Hit the target, all else is twaddle!
