      <content:encoded><![CDATA[I&#039;ve heard various theories, that Browning sold the Argentine&#039;s old, worn out equipment to allow FAMAS (?) to make copies of the FN HiPower GP35.  You see them occasionally with Argentine markings, and the quality seems every bit as good as FN&#039;s with very slight differences.  Any thoughts on are they a worthwhile addition?  I&#039;ve seen them mostly arsenal-refinished with a Parkerized-style coating.  I seem to recall seeing lots of them in the late 90&#039;s, not so much now.<br />

ANy discussion or help on...<br />

Would that be a stock feature on the T series as all I have seen for sale were fixed? I would like to buy the gun, but was wondering if the sight is correct. Any info appreciated.

Two are T series guns with import marks so they must have began their lives in another country after leaving Belgium. The one from 1968 swaps grips out just fine. The one from 1965 doesn’t. It has plastic grips and a lanyard loop. <br />

It’s a 1953 and I disassembled everything BUT the trigger to give it some new life. Replaced the safety spring, mag release spring, put in a 30# hammer spring, installed BHSS’s sprung sear lever, trigger spring, a 17# recoils spring, and their buffered guide rod. Feels very different during a function test. I’ll get it out this weekend to see how it shoots....<br />

My only BHP is a &#039;93 Mark III that I&#039;ve added the BHSS SFS system and dual stage buffered guide rod; I also removed the mag disconnect. Other than that and new grips, bone stock.<br />

Anyway, although I don&#039;t shoot it much, last week I took it to the range and I think the curved trigger is one of the reasons why.

Upon inspection I think the gun may never have been shot except by QC. The finish is immaculate. No wear at all, feed ramp, even slide rails. It looks brand new. Came in the box. It’s a 1989. I bought it to shoot but I’m wondering if it would adversely affect the value. I feel things like guns are meant to be used and handed down. I figured I’d ask you guys. Any thoughts?]]></content:encoded>
