I put a used Browning Hi-power on lay-away today, this will be my first Hi-power and I don't know much about them.
It is fully hard chromed and has adjustable sights, the front of the slide is a little darker I guess from being shot, does anyone know a good way to clean it up, it being hard chrome and all?
I field stripped it and it didn't show any signs of wear on the standard areas I look at when buying a used auto, extractor, ejector, breach face slide rails ect all looked good. the slide had a just a little (a very little) more play than the new one I had next to it, it doesn't look like it's been shot all that much but like I said this is my first HP so I don't know how they break in.
The serial # is 245NW67xxx I was told it's a 1994 and both mags are hi-cap with a Pachmyer rubber pad at the bottom.
All in all it's the one that I have been looking for and I can't wait to get it home.
The HP in this pic I found looks just like it other than roll stamp markings being in front of the ejection port and saying "Made in Belgium assembled in Portugal"
