Understood.

If you have a look at a BHP (see my pictures). You will like it a lot.
And the good news is that for the newer ones, they are much less than 1100.

And if the BHP is still too much for your budget, the CZ75 is a clone and priced very reasonable.

I'm afraid I don't get the uproar here. I simply responded to AEA's message by saying my CZ75 was DA/SA. When he responded, with the laughing emoticons, to what I thought was an important piece of info for a prospective buyer of a CZ75. I responded with some of my own lauging emoticons and (and to paraphrase) gave my opinion that if you are going to call the CZ75 a clone of the Hi-Power, then the Hi-Power could be considered a clone of the 1911 as they look so similar, and were designed by the same person. So fill me in on the last few comments, as I'm in the dark.

I think Andy was responding to loadedlib by warning him not to get bit by the 1911 bug.

Yup, I was referring to loadedliberal :)
I think it's already too late, now all I can think about is my next trip to the range when I get to rent one. :leaving
