Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.
Good judgement comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgement. |
Not too many of these floating around and none with deez grips.

Beautiful, kinda tempted to get one.
I just have one question, does it have an aluminum or steel frame? The aluminum frame and slide mounted controls are deal killers for me on regular 92s. Upon closer inspection the frame looks anodized. I imagine if it was steel it would have the same bluing as the slide. |

The finish difference between frame and slide you see in the shots above are not nearly as apparent in person - the frame is blued also, just not as highly polished on the flats as the slide and barrel. Some photographs exaggerate the difference. |

Just with different roll marks and a higher price tag. |

They even had generational changes. http://www.xd-hs2000.com/hsarms/images/gen1.jpg Generation 1: First Model for Civilian Markets Shipped from the factory with 10 round magazines for US sales and 15 round magazines for Police Sales. http://www.xd-hs2000.com/hsarms/images/gen2.jpg Generation 2: Military / Police Version The accessory rail was added, rear serrations on each side of the slide were cut deeper and wider, and the texturing or stippling on the grip was changed. http://www.xd-hs2000.com/hsarms/images/gen3.jpg Generation 3: Same as Generation 2, with three groves/serrations on each side of the the slide on the muzzle end, to allow easy retraction of the slide to inspect the chamber. The 3rd Generation HS2000 is the Springfield XD. View Quote |

A little Christmas gift to myself. Grand Power P1 Mark 7 in 9mm.
Attached File Quality of design, manufacture and finish is amazing, the trigger is unbelievable. But what I am most amazed by is the locking mechanism. It has the longest lock time of any handgun I have ever seen. Looks like it can really soak up recoil. |

You learn something new everyday! My ex-GF actually had a Hi Point when I met her. The damn thing was fat and ugly(not my GF ) , but it was reliable and fairly accurate. I quickly replaced it with a G17 anyway! |
