Actually, JMB had little to do with the Hi Power as we know it. That was mostly Dieudonne Saive with some help from John's son Val. JMB's Grand Rendement was a much different pistol; it was striker-fired.
And if you wanted a nice, all-steel 9mm... why not just buy the Hi Power? Or, for that matter, a CZ-75...
