My Canadian Made Inglis CCW

Sure, I know what your thinking, it's a bit bulky, it's mostly metal, no plastic except for the grips, no rail for mounting thingy's, it's only a 9mm, and it's single action only. But it does come with a really neat holster!

SWEEEET!

How's it shoot?

That looks awesome, I've never seen a Hi-Power with a detachable stock before! This is something I've wondered for a while but, is it legal to own that or say a Mauser broom handle in the US? With the stock attached doesn't that make it an AOW?

David, the High Power you see here, and the Mauser Broomhandle are, according to the ATF, considered C&R's and both have also been removed from the provisions of the NFA. The Artillery and Navy Lugers with shoulder stocks also fall into this catagory. This particular High Power was manufactured in Canada by Inglis and is the Chinese Contract version.

Obviously there are several factors involved in determining the non NFA status of any given firearm so if your considering something like this and have a few days to read the actual laws, head over to the ATF site and have fun.

my inglis's rear sight doesnt hold the same setting as i fire it. it starts to crank up the elevation and by the end of the mag, ive got 6 or 7 hundred yard dope on it...

id love to get a shoulder stock holster...

i traded an auto-ordinance .45 for an ithaca SKB side by side 12 gauge which i then traded for the high power. it took some time to get but it worked out. i really didnt know about the chinese contract pistols and was looking forward to the T-series but the CH is pretty neat...

The first pistol I owned was a Mauser broomhandle, complete with shoulder stock. That was when I was overseas and I didn't get to shoot it all that much and not at all at longer ranges. However, the stock when fitted was not particularly rigid and wobbled a little, which I imagine would not have helped accuracy one bit.

How is the connection on the Browning?

Nice

I know a guy who has a hi-power, no shoulder stock though. someone owed him $400 and so they gave him the hi-power as payment. it was made in nazi-occupied Belgium and is complete with nazi markings. supposedly worth about $1500

It's a nice snug fit but obviously it's nowhere near as rigid as a properly stocked rifle or shotgun would be. My Broomhandle seems to be a bit more loose than this Inglis is.

And thank you all for the nice comments!
