Talk to me about Kareen Israeli hi powers

[DonnyCommo]

For $275 it's too damn tempting. Does anyone own one of these? http://www.e-sarcoinc.com/kareenisraelihi-powers.aspx


This will be my first venture to 9mm

I have one and I like it. Good shooter, handles Gold Dot and other SD ammunition just fine. I did put a new recoil spring in it and that helped. Mine has 3-dot sights, both front and rear are dovetailed.

Looks like a good deal.

Thanks for the responses guys. Once I can free the money up (curse the mod 94 I just bought) I'll pick one up

I have never known the Israeli's to make crap. There stuff just works! I couldn't imagine any different with these.

Where are you finding Hi Powers for under $400?

Are they FEGs?

I'll find the link and post it.

One of the many he has. Now I could be smoking crack thinking this isn't a FEG, but.. still pretty nice. Price goes up on the others without a pitted bore. A lot of them are refinished.

Do not buy one of those, save your money and a get a good one.


Condition is used, fair to good condition, pitted. Good pitted bore. There is no such thing as a good, pitted bore. A good bore has no pits, a pitted bore is no good.

Exactly what I was thinking. They have others without pitted bores. But I'll probably hold out for a better deal.

It's my understanding that they're made in Israel with Hungarian (FEG) parts ... but for that price I don't see how you can go wrong.
