oh boy, something else for them to import and slap their name on.

Sad ain't it.

Sad ain't it.

Maybe, but they did well when they got their hands on the hs2000

I’d love to have a nice Hi Power but the Browning models are a little pricey for me to carry.

it’s one of my favorite handguns, 1911, Hi Power are classics

EAA has one coming in for MSRP $528 https://eaacorp.com/product/girsan-mc-p35/

EAA Introduces the Girsan MC P35 Pistol Based on JMB's Design

EAA is introducing new production versions of the venerated Browning Hi-Power pistol with the new Girsan MC P35 9mm pistol.

Timing is interesting on Springer, release dates mean EAA and Springfield are putting downward pressure on each other's pistol in the market - we'll see pretty fast if springer is using a Girsan or TISAS Frame View attachment 3607170
Ideally this and really the springfields will put more downward pressure on what I want -- the non-collector, shooter grade, surplus FN MKIIs and MKIIIs that just 5 years ago could be had for $450, $500 --

Its interesting to think that you could get _ten_ of the turkish pistols for the price of a seriously upgraded FN e.g., View attachment 3607172

Scuttlebutt is the EAA is the Girsan and the Springfield is the Tisas.

Sad ain't it.

I mean, that’s what they do. Nothing new or unexpected.

 

[payneed]

Sad ain't it.

 

[AK74U]

I'll pass on the Girsan model.

 

[fattboyzz]

Just get a CZ75 and forget about cheap highpowers.

tisa is a company out ofTurkey. They have been making hi power clones for about four years. I just don’t want Springfield to import a clone and put their name on it and charge a premium for it. The way they imported the original xd midelsfrom Croatia and charged a lot more than the original xd models. years ago I owned a over and under shotgun fromRussia named Balikeal ( wrong spelling). Once the shotgun became a little popular, Remington started importing the same gun and narmed it the Spartan. Same gun but 150 higher for the Remington roll mark

Put black paint on a Tohatsu 4 stroke outboard engine, and you can charge hundreds of dollars more

I thought the company name was Tisas. I have their US Army model. I love it.
