i got one of these and took it to the range today for the first time. stainless version. i liked it alot. just bought a blued version too.
the trigger was tough. not sure what the weight on it is/was but it was high. smoothed out a bit after shooting some but still higher weight than i'd like. i'll work on that. but it was much more accurate than i expected. i got better groups at 15 yards with this than i got with a spingfield 1911 9mm shooting the same ammo. shot about 150 rounds and had zero failures. the mag springs felt cheap compared to my other hi powers but they functioned fine. |

Either way, I like these guns. They appear to be a solid value. Curious to see how things shake out once more gunsmiths get ahold of them. |

Definitely on my to-buy list. Been wanting a new Hi Power for years but could never bring myself to pay the high price Browning was asking for.
Hoping mine will come with 13-round mags since that is the mag the Hi Power was originally designed to use. |

I have yet to see a review on Youtube that was not favorable. No mention of mag issues at all. Surely on my buy list even though I have 2 Hi Powers.

I'll be curious to see if the folks who did the original testing revisit and check out the parts the factory said they revised after the reports of the few breakages.
Not exactly in the market right now but I am quite partial to matte stainless guns. What's the cheapest they've been seen? I see $570 at brownells, I think some of their codes would get it to maybe $530 give or take $10 |

I've been following the Tisas Regent BR9 pistol since this summer. Seems like a nice Hi-Power clone. They'll make it I believe. This company offers upgrade kits that may be of interest to some of you who have purchased the Tisas. Plus a nice write up after firing 6,000 rounds. I am not affiliated or associated with this company.

Quote HistoryQuoted: A slickguns search reveals Gunprime as the cheapest place to get them. I didn't check Gunbroker. ...I'm currently trying to decide what grips I want to put on it. Leaning towards something from LOK as I had a set of his for a CZ and was very pleased. |

I’ve owned FN and BHP’s for over 30 years and love them. Once they stopped production, the current prices have gone through the roof. Tisas does make a really nice clone that with a few small mods is an excellent shooter, and to me, is very comparable to the late model FNs at half the price. Yes it’s made in Turkey, so if you can get past that, it’s a solid gun for the money. BH Spring Solutions has some nice upgrades for these guns. I updated this one with the SFS 2.0 with SFS Ultimate Spring Kit, C&S Wide Trigger, Essential Reliability Kit, 18# spring for my +p ammo.

My stainless BR9 shoots great. Fits my hands wonderfully and groups well.
BUT... extraction issues 
With fully cleaned gun it will run without issue for 3-4 mags the start failing to extract. I replaced the factory extractor and extractor spring with Browning parts, same behavior. 
LKCI is sending me a 'updated' extractor but I'm not hopeful since the browning extractor didn't cure it. I REALLY want to get this pistol running 100% as other than the extraction it's a dream gun for me. |
