... it says HS on the side of it.

Wow, it's cool to come back here and see so many new people getting into the Creature from Croatia.

I've still got my two Gen 1 HS2000s. And yes, one is still sitting unfired in the safe. Bought them both on the week of 9/11/01. Will probably hold on to them for life.

Been looking at the XDs that SA has to offer and they look great. Nice to see our little baby all grown up.

retrodog, I see you have made just over one post a year since joining in Sept 01!...you should slow it down a bit, you don't want to be considered a post whore!

Glad to hear you are enjoying your HS, mine is still ticking...though I recently sent it to Ajamesp51 to have some TFO's installed...and have the slide refinished. It did not need it, but I figured while he had it!...

Long time no see! My gen. 1 HS2000 (manufactured 10/99) is sitting on my hip at the moment.

If only eBay allowed gun sales... I can see it now. That thing would fetch a healthy return, like the PS3 that sold for over $30k.
