I picked up 2 FEG hi-powers last month for 230 a peice. The wife loves hers and i love mine. Just keeping looking and i would go used.

I would say, yes.
If some new plastic pistols are around 400/500$.
A good BHP for 600$ is fair as well a new 92fs for $550

When they were $500 NIB in the early to mid '90's I'd say go for it. But new at eight bills? I can't encourage you to do that.

LOL, a quick check of the (very under estimated) CPI shows that $500 in 1995 had the same purchasing power as $711.09 today. And, considering that in 2000 you could buy a Euro for $0.87 and today it cost $1.40, I would say an $800 BHP is a bargain.

I'm just glad I still have seven and don't need to add any new ones.

You people are just whiners and cheapskates.

Make sure you check the price in the link!! LOL! If you have to ask, you can't afford it!

I have a High Power and it would be the ONE gun I would keep forever. It truly is my favorite handgun of all time. So I'm willing to spend the $800 bucks to replace it if needed. Is it worth it, yes. Are there better values, yes. And I have to admit when I carry an auto it is a Glock.
