Chinese Nationalist Hi Power

[Bacarnal]

I've known of this pistol for 24 years and owned it for about 10-12 total.  She's gone between two good friends and I for the 24+ years.  That said, I've finally been able to get some history on it, both book and anecdotal.   Early build for China (1936 or 1937?).  She was imported back in maybe the late 80's and distributed by Keng's.  She has all of the early features, early tangent sight, rounded barrel lug cut, stock cut, etc.  Very accurate (more so than I).  She is my bedside gun.  I think she's finally found a permanent home.

Wow, that's a beautiful High Power!    A variant with the tangent sight is definitely on my bucket list.

I don't know how I missed this post Bruce! Definitely worth a necro-thread bump

Thanks, Jon.  I even have a Canadian Hi Power Stock for it, though the Browning slab stock would be more accurate and appropriate.

Picked up this holster and belt a couple of years ago. Couldn't pass it up!

Nice one, Matcha.  That looks like it has a spare mag pouch.  Don't have that, but I've got a slew of mags for it including a couple of Inglis ones.

Thanks! I don't have a Canadian HP but snagged the holster and belt just bcz it's new, unissued. Basically, a display set.
