Estate sale goody...Hi-Power

[Heliman]

Today at an estate sale, I picked up a "T" series Browning Hi-Power. This 1967 pistol was a good price at $500. Besides, goes with my other "T".

Oh that is a beauty. My wife bought me one in 1969.
I love the darn thing. (the gun, maybe my wife too)
There are a great pistol.

I bought one about 6 months ago! I wanted a 1911 in 9mm. My buddy told me to get a hi power. I usually don't listen too well but I did that time. Man, what a pistol. If I knew then, what I know now, that would have been my first pistol.

Lately, I have been on sick leave with nothing to do.......... so, I have time to hit the want ads and cruise the shops. Believe me, there are lots of opportunities.

Nice find Dave!

Very nice.....The older BHP is just a classic beauty!

With a Cylinder and Slide sear and hammer and a Wolf trigger return spring the trigger pressure improves drasticly.

Well........I have two and wouldn't turn down a good deal on another. 8) I don't shoot the 45 ACP any longer and the HP's fit me to a tea and are easy for me to shoot reasonably well.

I love Hi-Powers, have two, both later models. Would love to have a T series gun. They are usually priced at $800 to $1000, sometimes more. You got a smoking deal on that one.

Back in 1972 I bought a very unusual Browning at the Columbus OGCA show. It was a pristine Fabrique Nationale with two magazines. Both had the pistol's serial number stamped on the bottom of the mag. There was also a leather flap holster. This dealer had about a 100 of these pistols and I got to sort through them all looking for a winner. Germany dumped all these pistols on the American market when all their Military and police departments switched back to the Walther P-38. Believe it or not I paid $75.00 for this gem. One of the better pistols I ever owned.
