The MCP35 PI – A Baby Hi-Power

[Talyn]

Girsan is delivering a new model of the MCP35 PI, aka the Private Investigator or Detective’s Hi-Power. This takes the Hi-Power and trims it into a compact package. It’s trimmed some weight, thinned things out, and delivered a solid little pistol design

BTW - None of the video reports from the Shot Show I've seen where someone interviewed SA had any mention of the SA-35.

Oh no ... this type package has been on my radar for a very long time. This one might be hard to talk myself out of.

Nice looking little gun. I am sitting on my hands (and wallet) for a bit. Need ammo more than another gun.

May the force be with you…..the force says…….get it!

This gun has my attention. Guns from Turkish companies aren't usually high on my list, but they move up a lot when they are the only ones producing a type/model that interests me. I may very well buy a PI (if the price is right).

There in lies the rub. I must first determine if indeed I am going to make 9mm a permanent part, currently own one, of my handgun choices. After paring down to a couple handgun calibers, two if i lump 357/38 into one broad catagory, not sure I really should jump into another completely. Already added one to make it three.

I love the concept. Cylinder & Slide makes a custom version of this type of HP, called the Pathfinder, I believe. They are a wonderful feeling firearm but way out of my price range, I think they start around $4000 or so

I like the concept of a compact BHP, but $630 is more than I paid for the SA35. I know that almost no guns ever sell for full msrp, but I'm not sure the Girsan will make it into my "Turkish Clone" price range. I have no problem paying a fair price for quality guns. Even though I have actually been happy with almost every Turkish handgun I've owned, I cannot bring myself to pay the same price for a clone than I would for an original. For instance, no matter how good the Tisas 1911's are, I'm never going to pay as much for one as I would for a Springfield or Colt 1911. My limit for the for the PI would probably be in the $400 range.

In this economy, my entire pricing scheme may become irrelevant before the PI even hits the market. If Bidenflation continues at the current pace, Hi-Points may have $500 price tags before the end of the year.

I always wanted to get my hands on an Argentine Detective High Power model. They seemed like a good firearm to have.

I had one of the blister-packed FM conversion slides in my hand back in the day, but decided $400 was too much…

Oops.
