Karl Sokol Browning Hi-Power. A silk purse from a sow's ear

[Chuck Whitlock]

The Hi-Power is a nice gun but probably not worth the effort in the current market. Clean guns are getting fairly hard to find and they are expensive when they do turn up. Plus there are any number of 9mm 1911s at various price points that arguably are a better pistol. Or at least a pistol with more support.

I guess the ideal "Hi Power replacement" is probably an STI/Staccato or maybe the Wilson Combat EDC X9L. Too bad both of these are so expensive.

I'm hopeful that the DWX Compact will be a worthy successor, at about 1/2 the price of the EDC X9.

I really do appreciate your imput and have studied your various posts regarding the Hi Power. But I'm in the process of trying to get a MK III. I'm a 1911 guy so this is the next logical or illogical step in the journey. I hope you don't mind me picking your brain from time to time on the subject.
Thanks

Nope. I don't mind at all.
