Hey Guys/Gals,
I recently acquired a Browning Hi Power, but I am not familiar with this particular gun all that much, so I'm confused about which "version." I have.
It's a 9mm with wood (walnut) grips, and here is what it says on each side:
On the left side of the slide, it says "Fabrique Nationale Herstal Belgique"
On the right side of the slide, it says "C.A.I Georgia VT", below that it says FN <Herstal>, and below that, MDL. HI-POWER 9x19mm, below THAT, "Made in Belgium".
I realize this has to mean that it was imported by Century Arms International (hopefully not assembled by them in any way!), but is this a lesser valued version? Also, I don't know if it's a Mark I, Mark II, and so on....
A little help/advice, please? Thanks!
