Heads up on Hi-powers

[mrbule]

Just thought i would let everyone know.. since i have been lurking and didnt see a post on this.. And i saw the dans ammo hi-powers vanished quickly..
on gunsamerica.com there is a company called robertson trading post selling a TON of hi-powers. and starting in the $420 range some are C&R elligible.
just sending out a heads up for anyone interested. shipping is 10 flat, they come with one 13rd mag and one mec gear 10rd. and the shipping is blazing.. order to my door was 2 days..
I picked one up last week and took it to the range Sunday.. ran 100 rounds through it without a hiccup. wont win any beauty contests. but ran flawless..
a couple photos.. lighting and photos arent great just a general idea..

a pic of me at cresap with it.

and my wifes friend giving it a run

And i should have listened when i read that this license would kill the bank account.. I got it back in April and now i just cant get enough... heres what i have got built up.

Very nice collection. Not a bad start to being bankrupt. Welcome to Marylands house of crazies....errrr, I mean the maryland shooters forum.

Hi Powers are great guns, I love mine. Now all you need to do is find some 34rd magazines(they are out there) and you can spend a lot more money on ammo a lot faster.
Cool collection!

Looks like a great find. Thanks for posting!

There are 206 listed. They are retired from service with the Israeli police. Look to be in decent shape...

At least two of those photos need feet in them.

I bought a non C&R Argentine FM clone earlier this year from J&G, it's not a nice as a FN, but it a great shooter.

I did a trigger job, bobbed the hammer and disabled the magazine safety.

Nice collection, I'm going to have to get in on that deal. Thanks for posting.

BTW, does Cresap alllow cameras now?

I didn't see any problems with the girls taking pictures at cresap. Im pretty sure the range officers saw them and it either wasnt an issue, or they just didnt say anything...
and that argentine fm looks a lot better than mine.
I need to remove the magazine safety, still undcided on throating the feeding ramp to feed hollow points.

I just looked and i guess theres a little knee in the the last pic... does that earn any points?

Nice, I do like them Hi-Powers!

They might not allow cameras, but they like rock and roll! They were playing music over PA this past Saturday at Cresap. First time I've heard them do that.

I have been neglecting my C&R. Stupid EBRs have been taking all my money, but i think Im inspired

I have an Arcus 94 which is a clone of the Hi-Power. I won the pistol in a raffle and it's really nice. That pistol runs 100% and I've put 1000's of rounds through it. I did take out the mag safety and it made a huge difference in the trigger pull. I'd like to eventually get a real Hi-Power.
