>>31372605
why is replacing the mainspring on a hi-power such a pain in the dick. On a 1911 it's soo much easier.

>>31372642
because JMB's assistant/protege dicked with his design.

Terrible, terrible sights.

^^^ this
Probably because the patents to the 1911 were owned by Colt, not JMB, so the Hi-Power was designed specifically to get around those patents and when Browning died Dieudonné continued to work on it and get around the patents on the 1911.
If JMB still owned the patents, the Hi-Power would've literally been a double-stack 9mm 1911.

not enough boolits

When are they going to get married?

>>31372702
Personally I believe he would have had something close to a radom vis 35.

Because of the way the engineers who built it kept very close to the 1911s original design

jokes on you thats a modern 1911a1 repro.
Modern cnc qc from colt custom shop.

also, how is single action bad? Double action was literally invented for people with zero trigger discipline.

>>31372807
It's the lack there of that makes it a problem.

Not having a double action trigger means you'll have to manually cock the hammer if it's down on a round in the chamber.

Makes it harder to carry safely and/or deploy quickly under stress.

>>31372820
>if it's down on a round in the chamber.
when does that happen

>>31372823
Not very often, generally when you carry it, but it still doesn't help to not have double action.\

The last thing you need is a 1/100 chance to hit you when your life is on the line.

>>31372807
>ability to carry your gun without safety is bad

>>31372859
>Not very often, generally when you carry it
what

>>31372480

That's not even a 1911.
That's not even based on a 1911.
It's basically a .45 caliber Star B

>>31372859

>but it still doesn't help to not have double action
It helps by keeping the trigger light, and the bore axis low.

>>31372723
i like watching their videos they make a good buddy team

>>31372470
Linked barrel is an inferior arrangement.

Dissasembly works but could be a lot better.

Single stack (but it's also from an era where double stacked magazines simply weren't done on pistols, at least not commonly).

Grip-safety (what's even the point?)

Barrel bushing arrangement (probably was easier to do at the time, but still).

The Hi-Power vastly improved on a number of areas, no linked barrel, no barrel bushing shit, no grip-safety, higher capacity, etc.
Downside being the magazine disconnect, that shit can go dive under a tractor.

>>31372807
>Double action was literally invented for people with zero trigger discipline.
Well if you're a fucking retard, yeah I could see why you'd think that.

>>31372723
They both already have wives.

>>31372919
Double-action doesn't have to have too heavy triggers.
Especially if we're looking at a DA/SA automatic, then it'll be single-action the majority of the time.

Also what has bore-axis got to do with the trigger action?

>>31373031

A single action trigger will tend to be lighter and crisper than a SA/DA one simply because there are fewer parts interfaces.
It's a trade off of a slightly better trigger vs a trigger with multiple capabilities.

>Also what has bore-axis got to do with the trigger action?
I'm not sure how much you know about gun design, but basically the double action components take up space and have to go somewhere.
You may have noticed double actions tend to have higher bore axis. That's why.

>>31373023

>Linked barrel is an inferior arrangement.
It's inferior in cost efficiency.
But it reduces wear on a critical moving part.

>Grip-safety (what's even the point?)
To reduce ADs caused by GIs with virtually no training.

>Barrel bushing arrangement (probably was easier to do at the time, but still).
The barrel bushing was used to make a wear part that wouldn't be the barrel or slide.
So you could replace it when it got worn out, and extend the life of the more expensive parts.
Not necessary, but hardly a detriment.

>The Hi-Power vastly improved on a number of areas, no linked barrel, no barrel bushing shit, no grip-safety, higher capacity, etc.


The Hi-Power was never meant to be an improvement over the 1911.
Quite the opposite, it was specifically designed around the 1911 patents because JMB sold the rights to them before making the Hi Power.

barrel link
barrel bushing
flimsy plunger tube
kinky recoil spring
jammy feedway
that obsolete cartridge with its pigheaded fanbase

Explain in a high level of mechanical detail why each of those is objectively bad.

Hello, wake up, 8 rounds mags have been there for decades now.

>>31372470
The flaw is that it's no longer used much in combat by US forces.

>>31373047
>A single action trigger will tend to be lighter and crisper than a SA/DA one simply because there are fewer parts interfaces.
Small trade-off, I prefer being able to cock the hammer with the trigger.

Still a sexy gun though

>>31374345
Oh wow that makes a huge difference. 8 rounds gets it to a little closer to having half the capacity of a modern design.

>>31374470
>Slow round
I laugh when people say this. What does that even mean? I've never met anyone that can outrun it yet.

>>31374462
Norinco to the rescue.

I love that communist Chinese make a better 1911 for less money than any US manufacturer.

>>31374514
Get a double stack 1911 and you've got yourself nearly a FNX45 capacity. Not bad heh ?

If only guns had something like different sizes and use.

>>31374519
It means it's slower than the majority of popular full size handgun cartridges, and subsonic.

>>31374565
I know what it literally means, you fucking autist. It's just a senseless argument.

>>31374535
You do know that it has a tough times going thru car doors and windows, and as such is practically worthless in a modern environment, right?

> small mag size

am i the only one on earth that uses a para ordnance double stack?

It's not a 5906

Uncultured neanderthals can't put their 1911 back together after a field strip and give it the idiot scratch.

>>31375064
It's not difficult, it's just that newer methods are better.

It's just better.
