Browning Hi-power value question - The Firearms Forum

Squeak · 07-20-2011, 05:36 PM

Back in '69, I bought a new Hi-power (#69C1xxxx). Don't remember if I ever shot it or not (CRS syndrome), but at any rate it's either new or as new. Had it out playing with it today (the GUN) & got to wondering how much it's worth. According to BRANDX auction, it's probably worth somewhere between a grand & fifteen hundred.
Made in Belgim, NOT assembled in Portugal, has a ring style hammer & some pretty nice looking wood grips. Don't have the box anymore, but I do have that cute little plastic pouch that came with it - - - somewhere.
Anybody got a Blue Book that can give me a realistic value?

The retail value would probably run about between your two figures if the gun is as new and you haven't been "playing with it" too much. The pouch is worth about $25 extra.
