I forgot to mention that you can improve on perfection by adding Hogue rubber grips to the hi-power.

I guess each person's hand is different but I have yet to meet anyone who doesn't like the Hi-power's grip.

On the other hand, I think the Ruger P-89 series of pistols are really fine guns but they have the worst grip one can imagine.

I went in the opposite direction. My HP .40 S&W came with Hogue grips and my trigger finger was hitting my thumb, so I switched to Pachmayer grips like on the Practical. I've got long thumbs and that ridge to rest your thumb on works for me. One advantage of the Hi-Power is that there are lots of aftermarket parts available like extended slide releases, safeties, .357 SIG barrels, etc..
