i bought a hi-power in the 80-s, and a burglar got it in 97...i was at a gun show and my wife wanted a handgun, and she saw a nickel hi-power and said "thats pretty, i want that"...900 bucks and 15 minutes later, we have it...take it to the range, and low and behold, she can shoot!!! that was a year and half ago, and she has not gone back to the range, but i shot it yesterday, and it is the best shooting handgun that i have ever fired....my brothers colt diamondback is another great one, eventhough it is a wheel gun....great thread....
