I have one i bought many years ago cheap [60.00] in really nice shape. The gun shop i bought it from was almost begging me to buy it they keep lowing the price to 60.00 then i snap on it. Weird part i was at a range shooting it and a another guy had one. And his was a jamamatic mine ran good and was accurate. Mine was imported from Navy Arms with Arabic writing witch i understand is a surplus Arabic Helwan. They seem to have a habit of breaking the locking block. Also they have a set screw for the locking block which will become loose. Other wise it seem to be a decent pistol for the money i paid. Any other have opinion on the Helwan.
