It's been said that, "John Browning hit a Home Run when he designed the 1911. He hit a Grand Slam when he designed the Hi Power." I happen to agree.

So you must ask yourself if you wish to shoot, own, carry a handgun designed to correct the flaws of the 1911, or a crunchenticker designed for Lord only knows what. Do you want a battle proven weapon used by 63 different countries since 1935 or a monstrosity that should be dropped and left in the nearest hole?

I guess you can tell which handgun I favor. If not, I'll spell it out for you.

Hi Power
