    Glock Or Browning Hi Power?

    I'm really just talking about the slides. Do you have both? Numbers are great, but you really can't appreciate it without actually carrying them. And Mec-gar makes flush fit 15 rounders for the BHP.

    Glock Or Browning Hi Power?

    I own both and the thing that consistently surprises me is, despite its light weight, how thick the G19 is compared to the BHP, particularly when carried IWB. For me, I am less concerned with the weight differential as I am with the added bulk when carrying.

    Is this normal for a Hi Power?

    As in most things Hi Power, I believe this question is answered by Mr. Camp: http://hipowers-handguns.blogspot.com/search?q=eject+last+shot

    Firing pin retainer broke on my Hi Power!

    Yeah, I hear about them breaking a lot. Steven Camp mentioned that they commonly break at the 7 o'clock position. Worse than that, it appears that many of the common Internet shops are out of stock now. To minimize the wear, I use part of a foam earplug between the hammer and plate when I...

    Most adopted law enforcement sidearm?

    Glocks seemed to be top dog for a while, but I keep hearing stories about them falling out of favor with LE agencies. I hear of a lot of State agencies going with Sigs, and I know of a few instances where the M&P has replaced Glocks. Does anyone know who owns the bulk of the market right now?

    Not counting the 1911, what semi auto has the shortest (or in your opinion, the best) trigger reset?

    Considering a SigSauer, tell me about 'em...

    I have a 229 SAS in 9mm. Accurate without effort, soft shooting and very balanced. If it fits your hand, shooting one is the only sales pitch it will ever need.

    More reliable--1911 or Browning Hi Power

    Thanks for the info. The replies have sort of what I expected. I have a couple of 1911s and they all have experienced at least one failure in the first 500 rounds. This is to be expected, but I'm wondering how many BHPs owners can say the same thing?

    Hammers or Strikers?

    Okay, so that was my bad. I read the "It incorporated the standard Browning striker-firing mechanism" line and figured that's what it meant. So did Browning have any striker fired designs?

    Contract award to HK and Sig

    Hello, First time, long time here. I was reading about the contract awarded by Department of Homeland Security to Sig and HK and was wondering if anyone knew what other models they might have tested, or what the testing process consisted of. I realize details are unlikely, because after...
