Big changes coming boys!
Yup, made the decision to go for capacity over calamity.
Retiring my Officers from daily and began finishing up getting my MkIII, Grande Puissance set-up for daily duty.
15+1 just feels more "comforting" these days.
Greener pastures for this ol" faithful gal

Dunno about any extra butt length of the "new" version of the GP, but the original version hid surprisingly well. The sights took some getting used to with the wide notch in the rear, but after awhile, I took the milling machine to some other rear sights to get more daylight. Looking through the sights is better than looking over them.

The latest HP's, the SA-35 is the same as the original Hi Powers, but I know the "new" line out by Browning is larger all around.
The MkIII (mine) shoot extremely accurate with its sites.

I've certainly added to it over the years, but I stole the idea from Nighthawk originally.
