Based on the picture, I don't think this batch is going to be that nice.... |

Hey Bryan - When you got the batch of refinished alloy framed Hi Powers in a few years ago... were they refinished domestically or before being imported?
|

I got an alloy frame in Oct 2013 from Aims. Not refinished at all. Very good condition no lanyard loop.

This must be the most anticipated drop I've seen since the panic days of '13.

We are c&r firearm deprived. I'm having withdrawals. Had to purchase more magazines to get a short fix.

I had to open a new CC.
I see chapter 13 in my future but damn it I'll have my milsurps to hold while I cry after my wife leaves me. |

To the BHP enthusiasts, What's the difference between steel and alloy framed?
Is one more desirable? Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

From what I've read, the alloy frame is more desirable. Lighter weight and many comments about the triggers being better. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Lighter weight and many comments about the triggers being better. Durable? I read to avoid +P and keep up on spring changes at proper round count to protect the alloy slide from damage. Buying both is not an option for me due to buying too many bakelite mags :( |

Alloy frames are very rare, they were EXTREMELY rare in the US until about 10 years ago we received the first batch from the Austrian Border patrol, that shipment probably tripled the amount in the US. Before that they went for about $1500-2000+ when you saw one. They always show wear on the front of the frame from holstering.

I wish I just knew when these were gonna drop. I've religiously been watching since the pic, and I feel like after the days of stalking I won't check for 20minutes and I'm going to miss out.

The price on these is going to be $1000 with as bad as everyone is fizzing to buy one...

I would be most appreciative if someone would e-mail me through the site when the Hi Powers become available.
