Description:
General Specs: FN, Year 1943, 9mm, 31oz, 4 5/8" Barrel
Serial Number: 845L
The Browning High Power is a military icon. Since its introduction in 1935 it has built a remarkable reputation for function and longevity. It is one of the most widely used military pistols in history, having been used by the armed forces of over 50 countries in conflicts from World War two to the present. It was one of the weapons used by both Axis and Allied forces during the 1939-1945 World War. Based on a design by John Moses Browning who began work on the gun in 1914, the design was finalized by FN Herstal designer Dieudonne Saive following Mr. Browning’s death in 1926. The Browning was famous for having a double stack magazine with a 13-round capacity, a significant advantage when most semi-automatic side arms of the period held seven or eight rounds. This gave the gun its name- High power- later to be shortened to Hi power. This example, serial number 845L was manufactured C1943 when Belgium was under German occupation. The gun is in great shape with plenty of legitimate handling wear giving the gun a sense of history. Matching serial numbers and Waffenamt acceptance stampings on the slide and frame point to the authenticity of this firearm. The gun had some battle scars and is overall just a correct gun. The pictures tell the tale. The pistol has three magazines included, one is original but not serial numbered and two modern versions. Thanks for looking!
