Climbing on the soap box ...
ok ... I made a big mistake some time last year and sold my FN HP with SFS to a very nice gentleman (he is a member here ...) and have regretted it ever since.
So lets go find a new one .... Can someone please tell me why a good quality, FN or browning HP has to cost over $550 dollars. Its not like the design is new, or its titanium parts. Gosh, its not even that hard to build.
We see 1911s going from $300 for third world imports, $400 for US minimalist up to an over thousands ... But my word ....HPs??? $650 for a Browning? $550 for an FN SA HP. I even saw a FEG for $400 today at a show. Price it to compete with a glock and sell it will appeal to the anti tupperware crowd. I myself am a line crosser in that battle...
Maybe the new Daly HP will get a looksee from me, but damnit ... maybe this is why CZs are so popular. At least the prices a freaking realistic.
Ouch ... I just fell off the soap box.
