Note- Overall the median quality on these is NRA surplus Good. Expect some wear but they are all mechanically excellent. Comes complete with one 13 round magazine.
This pistol was considered one of the most advanced models of its day and was the springboard that brought handgun technology into the 21st century.
Not only that, but these Hi-Powers were manufactured in the original Fabrique Nationale Herstal factory in Belgium. In fact, they feature the original F.N Herstal Belgium factory stamp as well as the Browning patent stamp right on the slide. From what we have seen most serial #'s appear to match but we simply don't have time to break each one down to verify. The actions are amazingly smooth and the single-action triggers appear to be just as crisp as the day they were made. The barrel crowns are all in good shape and as with all Hi-Powers, the manual safety locks the hammer in both the half-cock or fully cocked position.
