Browning Hi Power

.
Are the lighter CZ 75s suitable for EDC?

I've seen quite a few reviews and comments like "I wouldn't carry it because it's too heavy". Which is odd because 1911s weigh more . and people swear they carry them 24/7.

I've carried my steel-framed versions with no problems, and still might be were they the decocker versions. Then again I'm comfortable carrying 4" N frames and 1911s.

Midway had some old Inglis production 13 rounders, but those appear to be gone now.

That’s a nice HP!

Too bad those Inglis disappeared - they were highly sought after for a long time.

At the end of the day, I'd trust a post 1994 Mark III cast-frame FN production piece (regardless as to being rollmarked FN or Browning) over the clones. Since you're looking (at least in my opinion) towards having to re-spring and re-componitize as Tisas from the get-go, and still have potentially suspect material integrity, I find it hard to recommend them at this point over a decent condition used FN/Browning piece.

While I concur with this, what piques my interest in the Tisas is the stainless steel offering.

I picked up a couple a couple of months ago, and am glad I did.

My humble submission:

A HP is the one pistol I've sold that I would gladly buy back. Mine was a 1994 Mk III .40 in hard chrome with the adjustable sights.

Never had nor shot a .40. It’s certainly on my short list however. There was a time that they were fairly common place. No longer. A few months back, took the youngest son out shooting. Neither of my boys has the passion that I do, but the smile on his face after shooting the previously posted BHP was telling. Well...my interest in things didn’t begin until my mid-late 20s so...

Beautiful gun. Looks functional, yet elegant--which it is both, no doubt. I like the Novak sights. I'd like to get those on my MKIII at some point.

I have a similar experience with my fiancee and my BHP. She loves the thing. Only wants to shoot that. Can't say I blame her.

My wife and I watched McQ last night. John Wayne turned in his Python, had his snubnose Python taken, and then bought a Browning Hi Power. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Then there's Serpico, where he goes into a gun store and buys a BHP. Going from memory, the dialogue went, "What do you need all that ammo for, you going to take on an army?" "No, just a division."
