Inglis D1 High Power - One of a Kind

Hello all,

I thought'd I'd make an appreciation post for a very rare Inglis Hi-Power. This is serial D1, the only one like it. It was presented in 1945 to Mr Harold Waterhouse who was the head of plant security at the Inglis factory. This was proven true by Blake Stevens, which can be seen in the photographed letters.

Sold at auction on 13 Sept 2020 for $4,900 CAD.

Please see the photos, as they are better than any written explanation...

I hope you all appreciate these old workhorses as much as I do!

Thanks,
Kevin

It is a very early slide. Is it the first type round cam barrel?

Is it a mkI type extractor and ejector?

Yes, to all.
