INGLIS is back!!!!! (Page 1 of 5)
![]() I like it ETA $650? well, now I'm debating how well this would go with a case hardened Henry |
|
I really like the minimal markings... the Girsan MC P35 is a billboard with all of the branding, warnings, serial numbers, etc. Seriously detracts from an otherwise elegant design and why I've never considered one. Are these forged slides, frames, and internal parts like the Tisas 1911s? |

https://www.firearmsnews.com/editorial/inglis-hi-power-first-look/489148 Inglis L9A1- MSRP $489.99 Inglis P-35B- MSRP $549.99 Inglis P-35 N- MSRP $ 549.99 Inglis GP-35 case hardened- MSRP $649.99 The L9A1, Looks like a nice Military style P35 copy, BUT that Case Hardened Version is really sweet looking !! Seriously wish that they would offer an Aluminum Frame version, AND a Shortened LW Detective version. ![]() Nickle,,, Not Stainless Steel ![]() |
TFB-TV Showtime had posted this very recently. Looks like sometime in March. If MSRP is $489 for the base, I'm curious what the street price will be?![]() Faithful Hi-Power Reproductions from SDS Imports |

These are one of the few offerings this year that I am excited about. And the more I think on it, the more I want. I could see both the nickel and case h versions in my hoard. |

I would really like a solid answer on who really makes these. And the "appropriation" of the Inglis name displeases me. These have nothing to do with the real Inglis, and is missing a few features to be considered even a copy. |

Its fine, but even I would prefer a browning over an inglis. Thats just me though. |

Well, I know it's not Girsan. I have heard it's not Tisas, but I don't know if I believe it. Sarsilmaz, MKE, or a new firm? I would prefer a $500 Browning too. |

Who is making 1911 and Hi-Power clones in Turkey? Girsan - Yes. Tisas - I say yes. Anyone else? The Inglis Hi-Powers are being imported by SDS - same company that imports Tisas. Springfield's SA-35 is rumored to have the slides and frame forged in Turkey. Tisas is rumored to be that company. So someone in Turkey with forged pistol making ability (Tisas) buys the Inglis name, because they are planning to bring back retro Browning Hi-Powers like what they did with 1911s. My two cents. |

I looked into it a bit but it's not a code I recognize. It's not the one on Girsan or Tisas, or Sar guns either. |

I ordered one; I have a couple Girsans and an orginal Inglis. I took delivery today. Nicely executed. It does NOT have the mag safety installed. The front sight is NOT centered; but I won't move it until I have had a chance to see where it hits. The lanyard ring would make left hand shooting a bit of a pain, I think. Sights are clean; but I prefer a bit more air beside the front sight when aiming; old eyes and all. It's a Mk3, but it does have the large visible oval pin/cross lug, unlike the other Turkish GP35s I have seen. The serial number is stamped across the lug, which seems odd. Attached File |

Do you have any thoughts on how one would remove the lanyard ring on this version? I believe that various iterations over the years have been removable through different means. |

I believe that various iterations over the years have been removable through different means. It looks like the stud is press fit into the grip frame. I can turn it with heavy resistance, but it's not threading out. It would be easy enough to tap out with a punch. |

The trigger pull is VERY nice for a GP35. About 4 pounds, and extremely crisp. The reset is actually noticeable as well. I have had 2 FEGs, 3 Girsans, and an original Inglis Mk1*; and have handled FNs. This is the best of them. It should improve with some breakin as well. No MIM parts, either. |

If anyone ever finds out what actual Turkish firm/factory is making these, let me know. I really want to find out. Nothing in the manual gives any clue. Is there a way to find the import permit? |

Although different lug are these merely made by Girsan under exclusive agreement or truly another factory? I've seen a few Girsan's locally for sale and they seem reasonable for a basic shooter. Turkish gun makers are like that old "Who's on first" gag. |

Turkish gun makers are like that old "Who's on first" gag. They are very similar, but when you look at them really close next to each other you can see slight variations in curves and lines throughout the guns. I can confidently tell you that they are not made using the same tooling or drawings. |

Left side of slide is marked "L9A1", right side is blank. I shouldn't reply from work, I guess. @BPR |
