Posting for a buddy:
Finally went ahead and found a really clean used Browning HP MkIII. I took it to the range and I had one jam with WWB Value Pack. Mr Camp kindly suggested replacing the recoil spring with a standard weight Wolff spring and the mag springs with Wolff +5s. The parts are on order.
How much lube do HPs need? I think I might have over lubed it because it was dripping wet. A guy at the range said to go light on the oil. Was he right?
I used CLP to lube. Any problems with CLP in HPs?
The SA is stiff! It's nothing like the SA on a NIB HP that I tried at a local shop.
I'm looking to replace the grips but I don't have a lot of cash. Any suggestions?
Any advice, suggestions or ideas for the HP MkIII project?
