Value Thoughts on Browning Hi Powers

[harbormaster]

Having never bought on Gun Broker I bid nearly $1k on a nice one this week that was in state and thus easy to get. I got out bid but only by a little. Is that the price point on the last ones they built? Like new condition? Looking for thoughts on their price point.

Sounds about right. I've seen them here in the market place, asking price $1500 - $2500.

Yes I saw the one recently in the market place. I don't know their value well; trying to learn. The seller had a CZ on sale at a price higher then retail which made me conclude maybe the Hi Power was asked for high as well. Will keep looking thanks for the link.

Here in Reno they come up to $800-$900 at Cabalels and Whiley Brothers. The 50 year old C&R are available for California buyers. You might try Triple A in Vallejo if they have any in inventory.

When I was at Ammo bros in Cerritos I saw 2 browning hi powers for $1,000.

I went home, looked at my Belgium T-series Browning Hi-Power and said “ Damn girl you’ve been hustling “ !

There are different models and different production factories. The FN ones were made in Belgium for a while, then Portugal, then here in the states. The ones made in Belgium probably carry a premium. $1,000 sounds like a fair price for a Belgian pistol from the last 30 years if condition is good. It's not like you can just walk into a shop and buy one if you want one here in California. You have to get lucky and find them on consignment or via private sale. Or go for an older C&R eligible one if shopping Gunbroker.
