This Browning Hi-Power is a late production example manufactured in 2004, representing one of the final commercial runs prior to the model’s discontinuation. The pistol follows the classic single action steel frame pattern with forged slide and fixed sights, finished in polished blue and fitted with checkered wood grip panels. It is equipped with ambidextrous thumb safeties and retains the traditional profile and controls associated with late commercial production guns.

The Hi-Power’s defining mechanical feature is its double column magazine design, which provided a 13-round capacity while maintaining a relatively slim grip profile. This magazine system established the pattern for later high capacity service pistols and remains one of the model’s most influential characteristics. By 2004, the design had reached a mature commercial form, combining the original locked breech cam system with decades of production refinement while preserving dimensional compatibility with standard Hi-Power magazines. Accompanied by original box, manuals, and 5 magazines.
