    I love mine. Hogue wraparound grips make it fit my hand like a glove.

    Well balanced, great accuracy, and darn good looking.

    You wouldn't be disapointed in any of the CZ line- up. They are amazing firearms for the price.

    Dude a CZ75 is a BHP.. On steroids, and half the price. You wont be disappointed in them. Buy it, if you decide you dont like it ill buy it off you for what you paid for it. then you can get the BHP or whatever else. I bet cha money youll love it tho.

    whizzer here, I have a CZ75 compact 9mm. I don,t think you will find a better pistol for the money. Shoots and handled very good. A lot of [pistols copied the CZ , Wife has a CZ 83.Son a CZ full size. I like the shape and design of the older CZ.s I don,t think You would go wrong with a CZ.They also make very fine rifles and shotguns.

    Is the Hi Power a Browning, or one of the clones? I love Hi Powers for the crisp single action trigger. I also love CZ's for their accuracy and rugged reliability.
    If the Hi Power is a Browning, it will hold it's value better, if it's a clone, it won't.
    You will have a great, dependable firearm either way you go. Handle both and buy the one that feels best in your hands and send us a pic when you have it.

    Hi Power is a Browning.

    Here's some more info, and it talks about the different variants.

    here

    There is also an FEG clone from what I understand.

    I see your dilemma. Both are beutiful semiautos. Even though they are both great pistols you still have to make a choice. I'd probably would go for the High Power.
