I'm looking at the Hi-Power and 75b.
What get?
a Glock :^)
>>28304279
>plastic
Nah :^)
>>28304261
The CZ is better in every way.
Hi Power is highly perfect
>>28304261
But seriously how good is the BHP
>>28304327
BHP was the chosen side-arm of UK forces until replaced by Glock 17 Gen 4, after 40 years good service
>>28304336
(cont)
>The Glock 17 Gen 4 pistol is much lighter than the current Browning pistol, and more accurate. It also has an increased magazine capacity of 17 9mm rounds, compared to 13 rounds for the Browning.
>Warrant Officer 1 Mark Anderson, Royal Marines, who trialled the Glock 17 before the contract was awarded, said: “Pistols are vital in close combat and are a key part of a soldier’s armoury. Reliable, light and easy to carry, the Glock inspires confidence and performs exceptionally well.”

Get either one. They're literally the same gun.

CZ
CZ if you want DA/SA. HP if you want class and something to tinker.
>>28304261
If it would ever be used in any capacity for self defense, the CZ is what you're looking for.
Range toy that you can wear your fedora and stupid ass thick framed glasses with while goin "I Nate you've never heard of it, hon hon hon!", and you should get the hi power.
Fucking Hi Power, what kind of question is this?
Cz is just a wannabe browning anyway.
>>28304261
Honestly the cz is the better gun, its literally the update to the bhp.
Sp-01 is what I'd do. But after having a cz, I sold it when I got my glock. I don't like da/sa or sao
>All these niggas don't know about flush fitting 15 round BHP mags
Stop using LOL 13 ROUNDZ against the BHP, 15 rounders have been widely available and 100% reliable for like two or three decades now.
The CZ75 is pretty much just an updated BHP with some tweaks, though. I prefer the BHP to the CZ but both are great.
>>28305127
>just an updated BHP with tweaks
Sure, and I'm sure an F-150 is just a model T that's been updated with some tweaks.
where the fuck do you find a HP for that cheap?
>>28305217
this
>>28305217
Surplus hi powers can be had for less than $500 all the time. I bought mine, bought springs, and had it Cerakoted for less than $625 total.
>>28305206
I know they aren't the same, I only included that for new friends wanting one or the other to make a point
Get 5 hi point c9s
>>28305331
>including faulty info "for the newfriends"
Sure. I bet you taught your kids the world is flat "because it's good info to have"
They used a BHP as a jump off point, and aside from that (and the fact that it's got the same locking mechanism), there's no relation mechanically.
>>28304261
This is really easy. If you can find a new Hi-Power for $600, buy it immediately, then post the details here and they should sell out in short order. Otherwise get the 75B.
>>28304261
Do it.

>pistols are vital in close combat
Only because the UK L85 is a jamomatic
Hi-Power if you are looking for a cool toy that's also a good pistol especially if you get a good one for a good price. You can always pick up a CZ later.

> less than or equal to 600
Is this even?
You can't replacement barrels for bhp anywhere.

Rookie mistake
pls no bully
Where to get new BHP bbl? My mkIII is pretty shot out, only good for personal defense. Want to be groovy again.
>>28304261
>What get?
a modern gun.
>>28304261
Is AIM still has one in stock, this is the Mk III Hi-Power they sent me. $459+shipping and a transfer fee, got it for $500 all said and done. Already have about 150 rounds through it with no malfunctions.

Didn't bother with the places that only had .40 S&W barrels, hope this helps. Also, be aware that barrels are expensive because they are pressure bearing and very difficult to machine, so don't go getting sticker shock.
>>28304261
Buy a Sig P320
>>28304261
Hi Power = hammer bite, shitty trigger, low capacity and proprietary mags.
CZ = Made by eastern europeans.
I don't know man, just do what you want.
>>28309653
>proprietary mags
Never heard of Mec-Gar?
>hammer bite
Not if it isn't one of those skeletonized hammers
Also, nice Coonan promotional image
>>28309308
What is Bar-Sto for $200 Alex?
>>28309693
>nice Coonan promotional image
I understand what you're saying and you're not wrong.
I will have one though; deciding whether to wait or trade in a couple guns to get it.
>>28309543
>>28309814
That would be BarSto for 240. Not in stock, one production run per year, or when the feelz hit them.
Brownells. 450 bucks is 50 more than i paid for the pistol 10 years ago with custom grips, 5 mags, a trigger job and a case.
