Danger-Mouse Posted September 8, 2019 Report Share Posted September 8, 2019 (edited) FK BRNO 7.5mm Field Pistol. Amazing gun but not cheap at around $7,000 Edited September 8, 2019 by Danger-Mouse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_b_wales Posted September 8, 2019 Report Share Posted September 8, 2019 Very nice. Sadly, our government won't allow us to use such firearms anymore. Back in the 1980's I had many full bore pistols, my two favourites being, S&W 686 .357 magnum and Ruger Blackhawk .44 magnum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me it feels a bit better finished, not so many sharp edges Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve_b_wales Posted September 8, 2019 Report Share Posted September 8, 2019 Happy memories of using it. I can't remember what I paid, but it was around the £400 mark (1986) I believe. I'd love to own one again, but our lovely government don't trust me/us to have one. I may consider a long barrel pistol when our shooting range opens.

Funny that not many are able to have hand guns on the mainland but if you can have one they are cheaper than in NI. Just looked at 1 £725 in NI and £452 here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked on the site you put up at a sprigfield xd https://gundeal.co.uk/springfield-xd-9mm-.pistol-hand-guns-for-sale-6518 same as the hs produkt from oceania defence https://www.oceaniadefence.co.uk/product-page/hs-9-standard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ordnance Posted September 8, 2019 Report Share Posted September 8, 2019 They are two different manufactures / guns, that's like comparing the price of a Croatian manufactured car with a American made car. If you are looking a cheap pistol buy a Glock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the springfield named guns are officially imported in to the UK mainland and some of the guns made for springfield by HS are not available here ether which is a shame as I would have liked the xde Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
