Here's the exact message I received from FN. It should answer your questions:
Dear Mr. Martin,
Thank you for your inquiry on the Hi-Power pistol. We plan to import
some
pistols designated HP-SA9 that are made in Belgium with the military
finish.
We expect the first delivery in early 2001. The suggested retail price
is
$609.75. The first pistols will be 9mm followed by 40 S&W. We don't
have
plans to bring in other versions, but if the market is strong for these
pistols, we will consider other
versions.
Hope this information is helpful.
Best regards,
Bill Forson
Director, law Enforcement Sales
