What make is this?
« on: May 08, 2003, 01:33:52 PM »
Can someone tell me what make this gun is? If so, is it anything to pursue? Any help is greatly appreciated. It's the Lithuanian police pistol I'm interested in.

Actually I believe it is an FEG which is a clone of the Browning High Power. If you'd like more info on FEG check this link:

Thanx guys,
   Being a clone of a browning does that mean quality is suspect? The only reason I'm interested is my distant Lithuanian heritage. I thought for the price it had to be used or maybe poor quality.  I currently own an H&K VP70-Z, which is a solid gun. It's just the dad gom trigger pull is mean and there is no adjusting it. It's kind of like a built in safety. :P

Do not assume just because a gun is a clone it is of lesser quality. Some of the Italian made Colt clones are as good as any of the old Colt's used to be. As for the FEG I honestly do not know. I've not shot or handled one.
