Looked at one of these about a year ago. Until they start selling them with the slide cut for common sights OR sell them with a decent set of sights, I won't have one. No, Novaks won't fit. I'm not going to throw down another $200.00 in machine work and sights just to shoot a cheap pistol. The crown is also disappointing. I can only imagine that most will be screwed up before their first year ownership. The one I looked at looked like they used a pencil sharpener to set the barrel crown. Make it a recessed crown and decent sights if you want to sell me one. Otherwise, just a cheap import wannabe. There are other clones out there. My brother has a Kassner that is identical to a High Power. Kassner got shut down for patent rights violation but those that were sold are definite keepers. While I'd love to have a HP clone to keep me from shooting the real thing, this one isn't it.
