Yeah, that’s a beauty indeed and priced right too. $700.00 MSRP

I’ll wait for some actual user reviews before getting excited. My experience with DA steel pistols in that price range is that they never really satisfy, without trigger work or other mods. I have always liked Hi Powers. And have been tempted in the past.

I am a fan of the all steel CZ75 layout and would get a Shadow 2 Optic Ready if I could afford one. But I could buy three of these Hi Powers for that amount. Most of my guns have optics now, I can’t shoot irons well, the HP would be very difficult for me. My daily carry is a CZ P10F with Fast Fire optic, a light, and an aftermarket trigger. Very big, but boy does it shoot…. 😳

Yep I'll let the initial excitement pass. My hunting Pal Scott is ordering one and wants me to try it out also. when he does I'll see for myself. As a lefty if there's no ambi upgrades it's a no-go..my carry 9s are glock 43 and Sig p365xl with ambi controls,I carry the glock 90% of the time . Favorite range toys are my Armscor Citadel 1911 with ambi controls and S&W 10-5 38 special
