I have two Hi-Powers. They are the last two decent combat pistols I have left after having to sell a bunch.
They are about as good as anything but if I could choose a few new ones they would be Sigs and Glocks. A lot of others too, but the Brownings are still as good as they ever were.
The triggers are supposed to not be good but mine are about as good as any others out of the box and I still have the mag safeties which I think are a decent feature despite everyone else not liking them
The Brownings are reliable and easy for me to hit with.
Probably the best feature is how good they feel in my hand.
YES!!!
I like it the way some people like the 1911.
Yeah, I don’t feel a need to remove the mag safety. I think the trigger issue is overstated. There’s a slightly gritty take-up but then a nice crisp break. If the break were gritty or stagey it would be a different story, but it’s not. Once you’re “there”, the trigger feels about like a 1911.
