The stainless option is interesting.

Was the practical a cast stainless frame?
I believe cast frames started during MKIII production. Seem to remember it had something to do with the introduction of .40 S&W to the platform.
The cast frame was in direct response to durability issues in the .40 HP, which carried over into 9mm production. I owned one of the first .40 HPs and it didn't stay long. I've never been enamored with the round and the extra snappy recoil was juice unworthy of the squeeze in that svelte pistol.
I love the High Power, unfortunately it doesn't love my big hands. I've owned several over the years and always wind up moving it along because of that. I don't think there's ever been a gun I wanted to work for me more than the P35. I think its time has passed as a top tier fighting handgun, much like the 1911. On the other hand, there are few handguns as proven as the High power. The trigger linkage is an absolute abortion to work on, but it can be done.
As far as I know, the Tisas is the only stainless HP option, now or ever. FN hard chromed their guns, they were never stainless.
