Looks like I just found my Christmas present from me to me, 1972 Hi-Power. It’ll look good with my Hi-Power Practical and my SA-35.
I really shouldn’t, literally just paid my CC off this morning an hour off before I got the text from a coworker.
Common sense goes out the window, it’s the season they say.

I recently came into a new in box Browning Hi Power. All I know is that it's Belgian made but I don't know the year. I probably won't ever shoot this one but I'd love to find a shooter.
I feel the same way about my BHP Practical as well! I remember finding it used in a local gun shop many years ago. I wasn't looking to buy a High Power (I was looking at 1911's that day), but after handling it and with the two tone finish (it looks like a companion to my two-toned SIG TTT 1911), I really could not help myself and it followed me home. It may have been one of my best gun shop finds ever (along with finding an H&K P7 PSP around the same time in the same gun shop).
