Half Price High Power: EAA GIRSAN MC P35

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ส.ค. 2024
- Interested in High Power (or Hi Power) but hate the price and you don't want a used (or Used Up) one, then check out this NEW for 2022 offering imported by EAA (Here in Florida!) called the Girsan MC P35 (also called MCP35, MC P-35, etc.). It is chambered in 9mm, comes with one 15 rd magazine and is about half the price of the new FN High Power that has just come out in limited quantities (so far). These are made in Turkey, in case it's an issue for you.

The magazine safety is very easily removed. It's a very simple procedure that only takes a few minutes. There are numerous sources available online that show how this is done or any gunsmith can do this for you for a nominal charge. Removing it will not affect anything else. It will alleviate the issue of having the mag in to drop the trigger and improve the trigger pull.
The match model corrects all the problems we face with the standard including sights straight trigger and no disconnect for 100 more dollars
I removed mine from my standard Browning Hi Power and I really didn’t notice that great of a difference. It removes that slightly gritty feel in the initial pull before you get to the wall but the trigger breaks about the same. Trigger pull is great on mine. Not super light but incredibly crisp with almost no perceived movement.. it just snaps.
Not simple…you have to remove trigger pin and I gave up.
I heard that the mag will fall out if the disconnect is removed. That came from Honest Outlaw. if his info is incorrect, I'll remove it.
Springfield Armory SA35 uses a trigger assembly that does not have the magazine safety and the cutouts are not present to install those small parts. Cylinder&Slide aftermarket triggers follow that pattern as well.
Great video...Girsen makes really nice weapons... people forget that Turkey is the second largest military country after the U.S. and masters of weaponry
The hipower is such a beautiful weapon. I think that with all the ones that JMB ( not to be confused with fjb) produced we NEED his birthday to be a national holiday. As a reformed machinist I am in awe of his products...I mean his weapons have allowed us to remain free. Maybe Hon. Justice Thomas will hear my pleas. He has addressed my other ones as of late...LOVE YOUR CHANNEL..thank you
... I picked up a MC p35 not long ago, and being a Hi-Power fan, find it a faithful copy of an original FN p35. And the mag not being able to go in as the trigger is pulled back is because of the magazine disconnect - if you want to cure this you just need to take out the disconnect mechanism ...
Just ordered one.
The SA doesn’t have an ambi safety, so as a southpaw, I had to choose this. The new FN has an ambi safety - I think it even has an ambi mag release - but it’s just too much coin.
As far as I can tell, the Girsan is an exact replica of the HiPower used by the British military for decades, except the Brits went with a spurred instead of rounded hammer, and the front sight blade has a different profile, if memory serves me.
You made the right choice. Those Springfields are a dumpster fire
Always liked the Browning HP. Glad to see these clones come back. Traditional HP's used chrome plated barrels. I suspect this does too. Good review 👍
I've got one of these that I'm pretty fond of. A couple of hundred trouble free rounds through it. Good gun...Oh...and mine is in flat desert earth. It wouldn't have been my first color choice, but it's grown on me.
At least you have seen them. Ive been looking for them and its a no go. Man are you lucky.
Hope you found one by now, I was in the same boat, as of this post, CDNN & Midway have them, I just ordered one from Midway with free shipping for $506 It is two tone gray/black but I can live with that.
I got one and I’m loving it
Does it shoot well?
Glad I bought one of these instead of Springfield’s. I bought sone LOK grips for mine. I will finally get around to shooting mine next week.
Another aspect I love is how the fronts of frame and slide are flush at lockback
Great review, keep up the good work 🔥
I love all these new high power clones.I hope they make a stainless model.
Browning made a prototype which seems the inspiration for the Sig p210
Even the later version of p35 has those fwd inverted rails
the "gritty"
is the spring of the mag disconnect
and the slight rub of the disconnect
foot on the mag front wall... you can
largely eliminate it by doing the uptake
w/ safety on then go to fire and the trigger
has the same feel as no disconnect
I read this as a haiku for some reason lmao
not even
one of my most
haiku-esque
... or as the great
Tommy Hackenbruck
has called them -- Chiu-ku
Thanks for this review, I was looking in to the Girsan P35
Thanks. This looks like one of the better quality Turkish clones out there...
looking fwd to getting one
and upgrading w/ the BHSS kit
to make it full carry-worthy w/
the safety-cocking feature
The magazine disconnect is very easy to remove. Great video on BH Spring Solutions, and replacement springs available to compensate for the difference in tolerances for the trigger, as the disconnect effects that. Those are great guns! I learned to shoot on a Hi Power. The interchangeability of parts between Browning/FN Hi Powers and those from Springfield is not great from what I gather. I do love their safety lever however. Im awaiting my Girsan which I put my deposit on, to finally come into stock. Thanks for the video!
five star review well done.
The match model corrects all of the problems we face with the standard. 100 more dollars
I have Girsason Mc28 Sa Automatic I like mine really good Shella rounds that accurate
I, had purchased me a Argentine police
High power. Back in 1989 it wasn't ever shot
It was sold as a surplus in a new condition.
I, retired it back in 2012. I, bought a brand new Rock Island .45 ACP. GI model and I, love it, I'm am picking up my brand new
Girson MCP Browning High Power Clone
Mine will be like the one in this video all
Black, 😉😁
A very good presentation! Thank you very much!
Good review of a nice pistol. When the slide was upside down the Mark III style firing pin safety plunger was visible, a thoughtfully included feature by the manufacturer selecting the latest pattern to follow.
I was thinking of the Springfield Armory one...might think of this one instead
Springfields have had FTE problems for over a year, still problems w/them. The Girsan is reliable. Case Closed.
Good job. I agree with your assessment. Good gun.
When I saw the thumbnail title "Half Price High Pow..." in portrait mode on the phone, I thought you were referring to the new Springfield SA35 being half the price of the new FN High Power.
Nice looking
I just got one. Excellent review and look at the firearm. You always give such a staight forward knowledgeable review. Thank you! I haven't fired it yet, but I will over the next couple weeks.
Thank you.
Not surprising the mag won't insert w/ trigger pressed since that pushes the mag safety shoe into the well
This seems to be a copy of the commercial Hi Power Mark III that was made in the late 1980s with a firing pin block to make it drop safe. You can tell by the "paddle" like mechanism recessed into the slide itself.
Great review, now knowing about the mag disconnect, I’ll think twice about buying one.
Not much of a job to remove it.
They are apparently planning on putting out a stainless model. I am waiting on that. Unless Springfield makes one first.
already selling in Turkey. Under name of tisas zig 14 sport inox. They also applied poligonal barrel tech on it.
@@mercow1242 Girsan and Tisas are different companies. Tisas did import their hi-power to the US for a short time. They've not been available in the US for a while now.
nice. a great gun.
Just bought one, can’t wait to get it. How does the grip feel with no stippling on front or back of grip…?
The Springfield is a dumpster fire. FTE, FTF issues have been common for over a year and
people have sent them back to Springfield SEVERAL times and the problem continues.
Springfield SA-35 is just not dependable and as a CCW for defence, it's useless.
This Girsan Works !!! It's the only choice for a Hi Power today; the new FN is not a Hi Power
at all, way too thick and bulky, they're just using the name for sales.
I have one and the good thing about it is that it's a Hi-Power clone. The bad thing is that it's a Hi-Power clone and comes with all the inherent problems of the Hi-Power.
Gritty trigger until you remove the magazine safety. Even then it's a bit heavy and not as good as you would expect from a single action.
The safety isn't quite as positive as it should be, meaning it can be flipped from fire to safe too easily, but this can be fixed.
The round hammer isn't all that bad at biting you, but it can still do it
The design is not intended for +p ammo so stick to standard pressure only.
Newer 9mm pistols usually give you a bit more ammo in the magazine.
But, it's reliable, at least in my experiences. It feels great in the hand. It's easy to shoot being heavy enough to soak up recoil while still feeling comfortably light. It's a bit more compact than most full sized 9mm pistols. It's very easy to strip down for cleaning. And it's just plain classy.
From looking at the internals I would suspect that this was a high end pistol. It really is a great value.
A word of warning, at present magazines may be hard to find. But I'm sure they will get restocked soon.
It's funny how much "hate" my Turkish shotgun got compared to this handgun ...more snobs in the shotgun world?
No, it’s been proven the shotguns are garbage.
As a rule of thumb:
Turkish shotguns: Garbage
Turkish Pistols: Affordable quality
@@TonyTheGoon Actually my Iver Johnson HP-18 12g semi - auto was a good one, but im 68 th recoil was a bit much especially with slugs... 😉 But buckshot was more manageable, I sold it and got a Beretta CX4 Storm.. In 9mm.
I was Drooling over the SA/35. However,Noooo one! ANY where here HAS SEEN NOT A ONE! & the More research I've done, the More im liking the Girsan! My local shop is getting My Two Tone FDE , P - 35 in a couple days. I've got a Custom Shoulder rig Sitting in Drawer 1 year Plus! From WAITING for an SA/35. VERRRRY Disappointed in Springfield! For Advertising! & Hyping this VIRTUALY! UN OBTAINABLE Piece! I Love thier 1911's BUT.... Pissed waiting for that one. NOT a Good way to Do business....
@@harleydavidson6851 I’ve seen a few SA35’s at my local gun store. They sit on the shelf tho because nobody wants them.
New Jersey CCW means three "reputable" people vouch that you have not lied on the form which is only accepted in triplicate and notarized then off to a third party to get fingerprinted and get four passport photos as the police don't do this anymore then you must pay 150 dollars for the first gun and 50 dollars for a second gun which would be the only guns that the license would cover. Then after all that you must take a certified training course of classes (at your expense) and a 50 round target test of which 10 misses means you failed start over .The same process needs to be repeated every two years. Have a medical marijuana card? Then don't bother applying. Easy Peasy we are free!
I'd move.
@@rtz549 financially impossible.
Move to a free state.
I moved from nj when I was a kid best thing my parents did for me
Where can I find one of these ? They look, and sound great.
I have EEA Garson SA 9mm Luger Semi AUT like my very good much
It's similar to the Colt .45 not because it was the same era, it was the same designer.
Colt.45?? That’s a malt beverage. I think you mean John M Browning’s 1911, which is actually quite different than the HP.
The competition model does not have the magazine disconnect
any one else use the p35 as an everyday carry?
How does it handle hollow points?
Mine handles Federal hollow points flawlessly.
@@julietoozie I have subsequently determined this as well. Federal Punch will be the carry round of choice if I opt to employ this gun as such.
First…
where to get magazines?
same mags with original hp
MidwayUSA sells them.
Good review, but, why invest in obsolete limited technology? Give me double strike capabilities. Mag disconnect? Not 4 me.
To each his own
Bye 👋
Say what you will but the Turks are fantastic firearm craftsmen.
