How close to the authentic high power are these? Will parts interchange between them?
Do the guns with Novak-style sights have standard Novak dovetails?
I definitely concur that an extended, ambi safety would be a plus; the old-style safety is too small. If these guns have interchangeability with FN guns, this can at least be remedied by the aftermarket.
A beavertail frame would also be nice. This is pretty spendy to have done on an existing gun.

Very, very nice!!
I wonder if a "shoulder stocked" version could be offered at some future point? I don't know what the interest would be, but it'd be something no one else out there has....

Is stainless available with military sights?
Or
Is it known what LPA low profile adjustable rear would fit?
Just a guy who hates Novak sights.
Otherwise - very nice. I'm glad I have resisted a Canuck thus far. I'm not a fan of billboard markings, unless it's a Colt roll mark

The stainless is only available with Novak style 3-dot sights. I'll put in a request to have the dovetail measured.
Blued, nice finish.
these things a very nice,,but the price for a stainless puts it pretty close to a used real deal older Hi-Power,hopefully CanAm will bring a ton in and have a wicked sale during the hollidays like the good old days of Can Am,i miss your crazy sales,but my credit card doesn't.

I was thinking the same thing, beyond just changing the engravings on the gun a real nice custom model would be cut for a stock and with a nice turkish walnut stock and tangent sights.
Beavertail would also be a real nice "custom" edition.
The beavertail really balances out the gun in my eye...... I think the "look" of the classic Hi-power has always kept me away.... accept the ones with the stock and tangent sights they are cool but have gotten expensive in the last 10 years for what you get.
Something along these lines but half the price might find a market in Canada.

those stocked and tangent sighted ones are 1944-45 Chinese contract,Inglis made Hi-Powers from Toronto,pretty collectable,so dont expect a cheap one unless it's beat to ####,mismatched refurb,the Canadian issue Inglis High Power is what you want,i had 2 mint ones,the last one i have still has the factory grease inside it,very high on collector's want list,
I sort of wish I bought an Inglis ten years ago.... I'd be happy today though with a modern turkish reproduction/shooter over a beat up collector.

I have a low numbered Chinese contract Inglis (2 digits) that was one of the guns given to Belgium as Military assistance post WW II. The genuine Small Arms stocks dated 1944 or 1945 are getting harder to find and pretty pricey. The upcoming Switzer auction has one shoulder stock listed and the online pre bidding is already up to $450 with more than a week to go.
I agree a Turkish replica of a 1930's/40's BHP with the tangent sights and a nice walnut stock would probably sell like hot cakes. They already seem to be trying for the retro look on these with the ring hammer and single safety.

the Inglis Hi-Powers are definitely climbing in prices pretty fast,as long as they are in top shape and NOT refurbed,the last mint one i sold last yearwent to a military officer who paid $2200.00 for it with the original 1'st pattern holster,the one i have now still has factory grease in it,and would go for even more,so they are definitely a good investment,but i aggree a nice replica should sell well,unless you can find a nice vintage Hi-Power,so much better than the new ones,so these replicas might sell well.specially if they ever go on sale,like Can Am has a way of doing at times,

I was in the army. There are ways to 'suck it up' but as a customer I'm far less inclined. Browning has been selling ambi for decades. So if circa 1935 is your thing, soar like a butterfly.
