Longbough, dat's purrrty.

The only toy I have with me here in NC is my FEG Hi-power, which is pretty damn good for $275 I paid for it:



The factory sights were totally shitty three-dot fixed, and looked as if some drunk 14 yr. old Hungarian kid had filled in the white paint. I dropped about $120 for Heinie Tritium sights (plus the smithing work) just so I could have more confidence in my sight picture. What I didn't expect was that the new sights would do so well in the dark:

That's five magazines' worth of failure/remedial action drills (2 chest 1 head) at full speed from 7 meters. The extra $$$ for those sights was worth every penny. The rear sight glows two red dots in darkness, front sight is a green dot - real easy to line 'em up quickly!

Oh. Anyway, topic: I would spend mad cash on magazines if I could find Wilson Combat mags for a 9mm HP. I shot with them last weekend through my friend's S.A. 1911A1, and I fell in love. They operated smoothly, felt and looked nice, and were totally reliable through the 500 rounds we dumped downrange that day.

Anyone else have these magazines? Better yet, ever heard of them for anything besides a 1911?

Sucks that in this town, you can't find spare mags or accessories for anything but 1911s, Glocks, or Berettas. Someday I'll move away from Hickville again...
