Yes, a Hi-Power. A MkI* to be precise. But not just *ANY* pre-No.2 MkI*... something makes this one very special ;) Look closer at the pics. A copy of "Inglis Diamond" might help... ;)
PS: Badger - you keep quiet - I know you've seen this photo before ;)
The only thing that comes to mind is something special, like the gold plated, white gripped "CDH" that was in our favourite ***.

One of 5 special gold plated Hi-Powers given out by the Inglis factory during production. This particular one was gifted to CD Howe, the "minister of everything". Apraisal is in the $20,000 range ;)
I know two of the other 5 are at the National War Museum, and one other is in the RCMP collection. The location of the 5th is unknown to me. This particular one is owned by a friend of mine whom tiriaq also knows. It's in a very good home ;)
Good Gawd...
Ya...thats REALLY Military Surplus
No more trick questions from Clave
I have to cry foul!! That gun is not a milsurp. None of those five ever went to war. I doubt they have even seen the inside of a holster.
