OT- Good reading on HI Powers/handguns

Post by Andrew »

I don't know where I got this website from, it may very well have been here, but I was poking around on there tonight and remembered how good it was and thought I would share. The guy does a lot of fiddling with handguns and seems to be pretty sharp on the subject of them in general. His articles are all good and never leave you feeling like you haven't learned anything. If you like shooting handguns, especially Browning HI Powers, then give this place a look through.

I've always wanted a Hi Power, but for some reason I've never bought one. 1911's always seemed to get in the way. :D

Andrew, that is a terrific site.

I've wanted a Hi-Power for a long time, and I finally spent
the dosh for a brandy-new one. Blueing is terrific, the sights
are great, the erogonomics are as good as those on the 1911,
takedown is a little bit easier than the 1911, but no so easy as
the Beretta 92FS, the trigger on mine is quite heavy, (but is
lightening up a bit with use), and the accuracy is fine for it's
intended purpose. Mine is in the traditional 9mm.

Buy one, kimwcook. Just be done with it and buy :lol: one!
I wish I'd bought mine years ago.
