Perhaps I've been out of the loop for too long, I can't get behind this advise.

Silly thought. BEFORE you lay down the long green, perhaps you need to talk to a gunsmith about it. Ask him "If I want to lower the trigger pull, can you do it and for how much? Also, have you done this before and what have the customers thought about their trigger pull after it was altered and by how much?".

The Browning Hi Power is a classic pistol. A must for any serious collection of historical semi-autos and a great shooter to boot, still in service in some places.
Hi Points are cheesy saturday night specials.

I used to have a SW 9mm. Nice trigger. Good point & shoot at 10 yds. Never jammed.
I've changed to revolvers. |

Its not a P226 or HK USP, but its pretty damn good considering the vintage. It will hold its own against much more modern designs. IMHO it has a slight ergo edge on the 92FS, but the 92FS is more bulky because it holds more rounds...slightly.

IMHO the P226, HK USP, and Glock 17 are the best semi automatic 9mm pistols you can buy today. Plus since they are modern they work really well with suppressors... ![]() Or if you want to go out their a bit, buy a 1911 chambered in super .38. Kind of a forgotten round, but zippy and affective.

I ran 100 rds through it today, and kinda like it. This one doesn't feel gritty, like others have said. I held some decent groupings at 10-20 and 30 foot out. My wife, a regular revolver shooter, really liked the feel of the trigger pull, and held decent groupings as well.
I bought him lunch and gave him a mismatched 81pc set of steel gage blocks that I had in my older tool chest. They were useless to me, as they haven't been calibrated in over 10 years and a new set is cheaper than sending these out. He's happy, I'm happy, all is well. One thing I'm not impressed with is plastic guide rod and spring assembly...the spring is VERY stiff and the rod should be steel, IMHO. I've got him spinning a new rod for me, and I'll play with the spring a bit to see if I can get it to feel better, yet still cycle a round. I've already pulled the sear blocks and polished them to remove tooling marks...it made the trigger much smoother. While I didn't have any jams, I didn't like the looks of the ramp, so I polished it up a bit as well...as a precaution. I'm not sure if I like the trigger itself...not the feel, but the plastic mechanism. I'm going to do some digging around and see if someone has put out an aluminum replacement trigger. As for the weight of the trigger pull...it wasn't as bad as I thought it was. I think I'll keep it as it is, as it's part of the only safety the gun has. I may not be able to stand or walk well, but I think I'll give this pistol some bench time to play with it. It will keep my mind sharp, and my hands busy being productive. It's either that, or go back to sitting my chair for hours on end... This should be enjoyable for me...
