    Browning HP - Finally!

    After looking for a while, I finally got my hands on one, mfg in 85'. I wanted at least a MKII or later version and in ok shape because I was going to have a lot of work done to it.

    This is a nostalgic one for me because it is the first firearm I had ever fired and with my Dad. He still has his, but now I have my own!

    Sending it out to MKIII in Las Vegas to do some work to it: Cerakote, Trigger Job, get all internals up to date, and some other custom options. Can't wait to turn this...

    Sweet. Glad you found something that makes you happy. I'd like a "real" High Power but I'm cheap so I'll have to do with my FM-90.
    Yes you can have 2 C&R 03 FFL's; 1 in California and 1 in a different state.

        Congratulation on your acquisition.

        Mine is also a 1985 version that made its way up from Peru. It's the nickel plated version that has a history. Looks wise, it was rode hard and put away wet a bunch. The plating is peeling and some of the screw heads look as if someone got to it with a jackhammer.

        Nice shooter though. I know you will enjoy yours.

        Respectfully

                  Hi-Powers are great
                  They just feel great in your hand. You're going to enjoy shooting yours.
