As many know FN has discontinued the High Power, but good news seemed to come from Turkey, the Turkish gun manufacturer Tisas, known for making a reasonably priced reasonable reliable 1911, started making and exporting their clone of the High Power; first to Canada and now to the US.
Seems like although the got the 1911 down right, they can't make the High Power reliably to save themselves. Problem #1 was a poorly shaped and brittle extractor. The problem now becoming apparent is a poorly made sear spring that won't retain its stiffness.
FN has ceased shipping replacement parts to Browning and Tisas is only shipping complete guns, no replacement parts.
An aftermaket company has shown up just in the nick of time and is filling in the market niche. BHSpringSolutions.com
I was excited about the Tisas High Power at first, but I can buy 2 used Isreali Kareen's for the price of a Tisas HP and the parts needed to make the new gun reliable.
