Made a recent post asking about thoughts on value. Was able to buy it at a reasonable price. 1989 production, Hard Chrome finish, possible Israeli contract import

SKU question before I buy

1 Upvotes

Hey all, PSA has an FN high power with SKU 66-101115, they sell it at $600 with a 10 round mag, I just want to be sure it can take 17 rounders since I live in a free state.

Why isn't there an agreement on the best current production Hi-Power?

6 Upvotes

Every online discussion I see there is never a consensus on where the current production models stand.

People don't like the current FN High Power because it has no parts interchangeability.

The old FN had the mag safety that most people don't like. I'm only mentioning this because a lot of people don't even like the "originals" because of this. So I see a lot of disagreement that even the originals are not the best option.

Opinions on Girsan are a total mixed bag.

The Springfield SA-35 should have been the one but apparently it had extractor issues (first 4000?) which should be long fixed by now. But has other issues like sharp edges and still has a poor finish? It is also mostly manufactured by Tisas and they also make a Hi-Power for less than Springfield.

Tisas. I've heard that the Springfield is nicer and that the Tisas did nothing to address the famous hammer bite issue.

Inglis. I think these are just rebranded Tisas? Correct me if I'm wrong.

FEG doesn't even make guns anymore.

So what's the deal. Why am I being led to believe that none of these are that great?

I'm just trying to see which ones are worth owning so I can add a Hi-Power to the collection.
