one never knows what their reaction is going to be...facing the possibility of taking a life while protecting another is highly stressful...in a society like ours - we are taught to value life (becoming less common I know) - and when faced with a determined enemy - one has to go against those natural feelings...but lots of training and drills do help...
Are you selling your Browning HP? lol. j/k!
I remember reading, many years ago, that George Jackson favored the BHP. He was later killed in a prison break. The pistol he had was, at the time, described as a Browning Hi-power but all I find today is it was an Astra 9MM.

Would be a perfect design if not for the magazine disconnect safety.
(yeah, I know, old thread, but I’m looking for a Hi Power and was curious to see what Freepers had to say about them...)
The mag safety is easily removed.
