Guns International #: 103211614 Seller's Inventory #: Category: Browning Pistols - Hi-Power - FN Pistols Seller's Information When emailing or calling sellers direct, please mention that you saw their listing on GunsInternational.com Seller: carbinedoc Company: The Foot Soldier Military Antiques Member Since: 9/7/20 First Name: Hugh Last Name: Keith State: Idaho Zip: 83616 Country: United States Phone: (208) 853-4381 Premium Seller Number of Active Listings: 6 Seller: FFL Dealer Return Policy: 3 day inspection and return policy on used guns. Payment Types Accepted: U.S. Postal Service Money Orders, Cashier's Checks Description: The following address is clearly stamped on the left side of the slide, "Browning Arms Company Morgan, Utah & Montreal P.O." and below that, "Made in Belgium." The actual manufacturer, of course, was Fabrique Nationale at their factory in Herstal, Belgium, but Browning was paying the costs of production. The pistol is serialized with the first three digits of "76C," the first two showing the date of manufacture and the third is the series letter of the run produced. The history of the designer and the manufacturer are well documented and it doesn't seem necessary here. What is relevant is the pistols that served in the neighborhood of 100 countries before, during, and after World War II. They are still in business today, in Belgium and in the U.S. The C Series is seen by many as the last of the glossy finishes that FNH was known for postwar. The pistol is in at least very good, and is bordering on excellent, with about 98 percent of its original finish remaining. It comes with a ten round magazine or a thirteen round magazine, or no magazine at all, depending on the laws enacted in the state being shipped to. Thanks for looking.
