The Brownings were always high dollar and back in the day 9mms were snubbed. Everyone that has handled my Hi Power and FEG Hi Power copy commented how good they feel compared to other high capacity pistols. Glocks and Berettas are too thick in the grip area for me. IMO the only thing the plastic gripped pistols have going for them is weight. A good holster and belt take care of that.

I don't know, I had just about decided to go with a $9K 10mm Luger, but I'm thinking I just might grab fifteen of these instead. https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbt...ore-fun-than-all-the-others#Post16549047

When people face the possibility of freezing or starving there is little chance they are going to listen to unfounded claims of climate doomsday from a bunch of ultra-rich yacht sailing private jet-setting carbon-spewing hypocrite elites

He used to talk about his high power that had a rifle stock he could attach to to it. Many of my Rhodesia friends spoke often about their hi powers too. The cz 75 was also pretty popular there. Bb

Might pick up one of these just to have.

I'd add it to my BHP collection. The video does show some plastic bias. Typical now days. They just don't get it. ...yet Gun Shows are almost as comical as boat ramps in the Spring.

Yep, I was not trying to out you, understand. I am looking for the actual situation. Not really up for ordering 50 or 100 pistols which won't be that attractive to most shooters. As far as I can tell, the MADE IN TURKEY label is a turn off and leads to lower selling prices. "I didn't realize we had so many snipers in this country." by J23

I'm not sure why but the steel maybe a little thin to checker. Figures don't lie, But Liars figure Assumption is the mother of mistakes
