What's your excuse for not owning John Browning's greatest pistol?
thats like asking why I dont have a 1911, its because MUH INFERIORITY TO MODERN GUNS
I'm not 21 yet
>>31004441
Very hard to find in MA :(
>>31004441
>>31004441
Wtf
Mom?
>>31004441
>taking what women say seriously
Hi power more like lo power lmao :^)
>>31004441
Metal frames a shit
>>31004441
I'm getting one in January when I turn 21.
>>31004624
..But why?
>>31004632
I heard he owns a horse slaughterhouse and was tired of hippies whining at him.
>>31004441
Overpriced everywhere I look near me. All shops want a large transfer fee for online orders.
>>31004441
I'm not a faux-classy fedoralord.
>>31004722
>>31004722
Surplus ones are available right now for under $500 some even under $400 on gunbroker. Buds has fair condition Israeli ones for under $300.
I have two.
I got fuckhuge hands and the grip is much too short for me to consider it comfortable
>>31004776
Kuskil miski toimub
I considered getting one, but I seem to recall reading that they aren't allowed in IDPA, which I intend to try shooting (and I'm not at the point where I can justify buying multiple handguns that fill the same purpose)
I liked the feel of my CZ75 more anyways
New ones are bloody expensive
Not wildly excited for a used one
For a second i read that as hipoint.well i guess they're the same quality wise.
>>31005100
JMB's greatest accomplishment.

>tfw your state is the birthplace of the Revolution

hold me /k/
Because Belgians are cucks
>>31004516
Really sucks, doesn't it? I've owned guns for a couple years but have to wait another until I can carry.
>>31004624
>horse breakdance
Well, I had trouble finding a Kosher one for the longest time...
does anyone have one of the "fair" condition FEG's from Bud's?
>>31005537
Just picked mine up today. Didn't have a chance to go over it too closely as I was on my lunch break.
Finish is pretty worn, but it didn't look too bad. I plan on rust bluing it anyways, so I don't mind.
>>31005537
"Fair" condition Kareen Mk.1 from Bud's FWIW.
>>31005619
Post pics later? I'm thinking about getting one but I'm just curious to see what they are sending out. I could care less about finish as long as it's mechanically sound. Finishes are cheap, replacement parts not so much. Did it have a G prefix serial number by chance?
>>31005635
That doesnt look so bad. How is the bore?
>>31005652
No pitting, but some gouges about 1/2" in from the muzzle. Like someone was too aggressive with a cleaning rod or something. Still shoots OK.
>>31004441
They're fucking expensive in maple land.
>>31004441
Not old enough to carry, still live with parents and are anti gun as shit.
I really do want one pls believe me
>>31004441
i am a poor
>>31005661
What distance is this?
I'm a true man so I carry a 500 S&W
>>31006995
8 yards can't you read?
>full size 9mm pistol
>max flush capacity 15 rounds
Nope. Until the HP gets a flush 17-18rd mag, I'll just stick with my CZ-75.
Yeah dude my hi power is sick dude
Joke's on you, faggot, I do.
>>31004441
>What's your excuse for not owning John Browning's greatest pistol?
Because I own it's hotter, sexier sister: 1911
>tfw in Canadian Forces
>tfw standard sidearm
I'd like to think I have more experience than the next guy, so I feel comfortable saying that it sucks dong. Jams, is stiff as all fuck, flat grey sights makes it less than useless in the dark.
At least it looks nice, I guess.
>>31004624
rip horose
Horose, horose, for thee am I morose.
For if I were not morose for ye horose, ye would be a morose horose.
rip horose
I'm about to buy one right now you faggot
>>31004441
I never considered the Hi-Power to be his greatest pistol, I always figured on the 1911 for that.
Back in the old days a gun was a good threat and you probably didnt need capacity. Having 13 shots was alot of unnecessary roughness.
Nowadays with rapefugees and angry chimps you need as much as you can get.
These days the kings of 9mm are the Glock and Beretta.
Hi-Power was good for its time and it was a good war weapon but now its just Less for More.
>>31007666
Thanks for your input, satan.
Yes, it's not the most modern pistol, it was designed some 80 years ago now. But it is still a pretty damn good handgun. Anything over 10 round is pretty good for mag capacity imo.
>>31007433
I've also shot service pistols. I would expect training pistols to be in worse shape than pistols given to deployed soldiers. I would also expect a new civilian model to be much better than either. Most of the jams I've experienced are magazine related anyway.
>>31004441
mfw americunts bought most the surplus available here.
mfw burgers bought all the sistema's 1927
mfw you can get one there for half of what it costs here
mfw you cunts buy all the good surplus
mfw gun dealers here would rater sell our domestic made guns to the US rather than us because we are a bunch of fudds that only buy original musers to convert them to .308 and sporterize them.
you don't know what it's like to live in this hole where a glock goes up to 1200 dollars.
>>31004441
I own a hungarian hipower, is that good enough?
I own a High Standard
>>31004441
Browning never got the memo that other companies now have double stack 9mm pistols at a lower price. They act, by how they price their firearms, as though they are still the only game in town.
>>31004634
That'll shut them up
But I do own the best steel 9mm ever made?
>>31007666
No one outside the US gives two shits about the 1911, but the Hi Power found widespread acceptance.
>>31009188
A lot of South American countries adopted the 1911 and used it for quite some time. Argentina for example adopted it shortly after it became commercially available and continued to purchase and manufacturer tens of thousands of pistols into the 1960's. They were used until the 1990's I believe.
>>31009438
>South America
So no one.
>>31008076
Not sure if they were training ones or not, my MCpl kinda just went to supply and said "I'll take a box of those because I can".
>>31004632
Horse belonged to someone who owed him money. That guy is an asshole.
Don't owe the wrong people money. Don't let them near your precious sweet horses.
>>31007355
Im guessing you're not into revolvers? Or man caliber guns like coonan 1911, deagle in 44 mag, 10mm glocks. Sucks to be you square.
>>31007394
Brony factory, made by bronys for bronys. Brony brony brony, I realize its childish that I cannot get over this but I just kek everytime.
I just bought a FEG from Buds. First time Hi Power purchaser. Where can I get good mags that aren't $40 each andwhat is the best ammo for the FEG models?
>>31007666
>>31007716
With how slim it is it conceals well so it could be a carry gun. The grip is slim and that's what prints the most. 13~15 rounds is good for a carry gun.
>>31005362
Hey, Cali is probably a ahead of you there, and if no one stops that stupid Save The Children act NJ will be the first to ban hanguns.
>>31008146
Its a feg.
Its a clone.
Call it what it is.
>>31008194
> nobody in the world ever got the memo that companies produce .45 acp handguns with more than 8 rounds yada yada blah blah blah
>>31010425
...Well you don't have to be such a FEG about it
>they don't own a Pistole 640(b)

trying to get a collection going in MA is very difficult, but on the bright side we have a much healthier gun culture than I would have though
>>31010459
Thanks for the heads up!
>>31004441
I never really cared for them to be honest. I like the 1911 becuase muh history AND its one of the most comfortable shooting pistols ive ever used, not to mention a very comfortable .45.
there are dozens of good 9mms to pick from. Ill still probably get one to say I did at some point but its on the bottom of the list
Not 21 yet
>>31010084
>this guy owes me money; better record myself destroying their personal property so they can get me arrested
>>31004441
I own two CZ-75s already. Which are improved hi powers.
>>31010552
That's a myth. I own a Jericho 941 and a Mk III Hi-Power. The fire control functions differently, the linkless cam on the barrel is different, the BHP slide rides on the outside of the frame. They don't evem disassemble the same way. They're both hammer fired, Browning tilting barrel 9mm service pistols, and things like the grip angle and ergonomics of the CZ are influenced by the BHP, but the CZ-75 isn't an improved Hi-Power.
>>31010533
Maybe it happened in mexico? Maybe the money owed is for illegal shit. Someone doing bad things who owes money to the wrong people isn't going to go to the police dipshit.
>>31004624
Damn it dropped like a jiggling sack of shit.
>>31004632
>>31010084
It was a guy in New Mexico who was trying to start a horse slaughterhouse. Animal rights cunts got the federal and state governments to fuck him over too many times and in moment of incredible stupidity he decided that shooting a horse on camera would make a good point.
>>31004441
Bet the one on the left gives fantastic head
>>31010922
Are you me?
I own a mk iii captians model and a 941 in .45.
>>31011115
Standard Mk III, Israeli surplus, just got the Jericho today, it's a Jericho 941 R with 9mm and .41 AE components. My .45 is a squishy squishy FNX-45.
>>31004441
Can't own one in my country.
In fact i can't own most guns in my country.
>>31011169
Well fuck my ass, turns out they are legal here
>>31011160
Nice on the .41 conversion. Kind of useless but neat as fuck to have.
Im not sure if mines surplus, but it is made in isreal by IMI, not MI.
>>31011095
What a fuckhead.
>>31011341
Yeah, the seller included a box of Uzi branded .41 AE that came with the gun. I guess he shot the box of 9mm. I won't be shooting the Uzi .41 AE, but who knows, maybe I'll shell out the $85 for a box of factory ammo and try my hand at making .41 Magnum dies and a 9mm shellholder work together.
If it's IMI not IWI, and it has a slide safety, it's an earlier gun. Who does it say imported it?
>>31011358
Yeah. I really don't care either way about the slaughterhouse, but he's retarded for thinking uploading that video would be beneficial to him in the slightest.
>owning a hi power when there's plenty of better options
I prefer my CZ
>>31004441
I don't like its shape
So I'm trying to remove the mat disconnect and the trigger pin is being really stubborn. Any suggestions?
>>31011881
Penetrating oil. Also put some electrical tape over the pin on the driving side to keep the punch from slipping.
after I get a bolt rifle, a garand, a battle rifle, a wheel gun, and a 1911, I'll then dedicate funds to a hi-power.
Because all the ones in .40 have been bought up
>>31011881
I had to fight it the whole way. Electrical tape didn't work for me and I ended up scratching the shit out of my frame, but I was planning on refinishing it anyway. Just keep at it, use more "grr" than you think you need to when you're hammering.
Because im a yurofag that can only own 3 handguns and the Hi Power isnt even allowed for Production Division IPSC.
>>31013439
You mean all the ones in. 357 Sig.
>>31004516
I TURN 21 TOMORROW AND IT'S THE FIRST PISTOL I'M GONNA BUY
GUYS I'M EXCITED
>>31010337
I actually have 3 revolvers
>.357 5-shooter snubbie
>.44 6-shooter
>.357 8-shooter
I just don't see the point in a full size 9mm with less than 16 rounds in a flush-fit mag. Now if FN was to make a Hi-Power in 10mm with 12-13rd mags, I'd jump on it in a heartbeat, but I can't justify spending money on the 9mm version when I already have a .45 1911 (muh Moses Browning) and a CZ-75 (muh wundurnine). I will say though, the BHP definitely has a special kinda classy to it.
>>31008146
What 1911 is that?
>>31004441
>John Browning's greatest pistol
not
>Dieudonne Saive's greatest pistol
:^)
>>31004441
Because I have something better.
>>31014318
You know, honestly
The Hi-Power is my favorite gun of all time but the M11-A1 is still a really sexy pistol. How does it shoot?
Because I own an improvement on the design.
Still want one though.
>>31014261
It's a SA range officer 1911 with Harrison sights
because I like black lagoon too much
>>31004441
Because I have a 92sb compact
>>31004624
I normally don't give two fucks about animals getting shot, but something about that disturbs me.
He might as well have done that to a dog, IMO.
I'm HK master race (and CZ).
I still do really want one though.
>>31015421
Looks really nice
>>31015115
Pretty amazingly. The Short Reset Trigger on it is kickin' rad.
>>31016251
Nice, nice. Honestly considering buying a trade in P228 and sending it in to SIG to get refurbished, but alas, I'm not 21 for another seven hours or so.
