Ok, I'm getting my income tax refund in within the next week or so, and I've decide to buy myself a present, but I've got a connundrum:
Both surplus FN-made Israeli Hi Powers (appear to be the Mk 2 variant) have recently been imported, as well as some surplus CZ-75 Pre-B's from the Czech police (I swear it seems like 90% of my gun purchases are police or miltary surplus ).
Anyways, I don't think I can swing getting both, so which do you guys think would be the better buy?
I'm kinda leaning towards the Hi Power. Seems like cheap Hi Powers are harder to come by than cheap CZ-75's. Also a factor is that I have small hands and the Hi Power reportedly fits smaller hands better.
The main thing I DON'T like is that the finish in the Hi Power appears to be a black epoxy (read: paint) finish.
I suppose the Walther P-1's over at AIM are an option too, but I'm not quite as excited about those.
These would essentially be strictly range-toys, so carry concerns and the like aren't an issue.
Opinions?
