Friend of mine bought a BHP 10 years ago or so. Tried it out, and we were both rather unhappy with the magazine safety and how it made the trigger pull feel very gritty.
I ended up buying a CZ75 instead, and I have to say I’m very happy with it.
But yeah, if the new one does not have that cursed feature, I might be interested someday.
I’ve got the Hungarian manufactured Hi-Power. A little polishing and some lube fixed the action the mag safety had on the trigger pull.
It’s a fun shooter, accurate and reliable, and .380 Long is easy to come by, compared to .45 AARP.
Probably be just as happy with a CZ, truth be told.
***the magazine safety and how it made the trigger pull feel very gritty.***
An easy fix! Just don’t lose the small spring if you ever want to make it original again.
Had an Italian version of the Cz-75 but it was too big for my hands. I traded it off to a friend. When he was shooting it a year later the front sight decided to leave the pistol.
I now have a nice SARB6P. Fits my hand real well, unfortunately the sights are non adjustable and it hits a foot low at 50 ft.
I removed the mag safety on all of mine, it’s a really simple job to do and makes the trigger light years better
“unhappy with the magazine safety and how it made the trigger pull feel very gritty.”
You can polish the magazine where the mag safety hits it and remove some of that grittiness.
I have a CZ 75BD. It is THE most accurate, reliable and ergonomic handgun I own....and I own a few....
