Hello Browning experts. I recently purchased a browning hi power 9mm for my collection, hoping it would increase in value and be worth a little more than I paid for it. After I got it in my possession, I started to wonder if I overpaid for it. Can someone tell me if mine is a true browning and the approximate value? It is a 1986 Browning Hi Power, polished blue in excellent shape, made in Belgium. It is very near mint condition. Wood grips Serial number starts with 245pt, which the browning website says indicates it is a 9mm made in 1986. Serial numbers match. One side says Fabrique Nationale, which I understand to mean its made by FN. The interesting thing is that the front AND rear sights are fixed. The rear blade sights have a rectangular cutout, which I understand to be true to browning, but they are not adjustable. This made me wonder if it was legitimate. Does not have a ring hammer. I paid 890 for it. Thank you ahead of time to whoever can help me!
