That's a PURDY one. Funny, the older I get, my long guns are getting smaller in bore size and my hand guns getting bigger. Bout the only thing that fits my hand nowadays is a 45. Good luck, that is a nice one, Joe.
I'm not greedy, I just want one of each.

Thanks Joe. Just resting today so I thought I'd throw it out there. It's all fun and games.

Open to trading a mint High Power 9mm with 8 magazines including the two long ones for something interesting

I know my offer doesn't add up to the $ value of the Browning, but it does meet the qualifications of "interesting"

I'll top 99guy's offer with the addition of a couple Snicker Bars. Really, that's a very nice Hi Power you have and if I had some extra cash in my pocket I'd be all over it like ugly on an ape! Maybe you should post a shopping list of wants for trade to, if not for anything else, keep us wisenheimers at bay.
PS - back in "the day" the slick setup for Hi Powers had Smith & Wesson revolver sights set into the slide.

You know, I don't want anything. I have more than enough, more than I need, more than I can shoot, more than fit in the safe... maybe I would jump on something if I saw it. I like custom 99's. Am trying to put together a 6.5-.284. Am still waiting on the 22-250 to get screwed together. Gunsmiths suck.
I'm open to whatever.

You said something interesting? How about a 130 CC Homelite 7-29, gear drive, circa 1956. I'll even through in the bench, Joe.

Joe, I work physically for a living, nothing about a 125 lb chainsaw appeals to me. But it's cool in a sick kind of way. How about soft nice soft blankies and big fluffy pillows? Now that sounds good!

Ahh, that's OK. I actually sold that one a year or so ago. I paid $60 for it at a farm auction and posted a picture of it on a chainsaw site. A guy in Australia offered me $800 plus shipping for it, so it now lives down under. It cost him $474 dollars to ship it, Joe.

I wish I had something in trade. I read the book Serpico when I was a kid and he carried a Browning High Power, if I remember right, and have thought they were cool ever since.

You know, I can't faltered Glocks for what they are; but I'd still rather have a Hi Power. Anyone ever shoot a .40 Hi Power? I always wondered how the compared to the 9mm.

Still open to trade. Already got a new washer and dryer. Don't need any used tires, a lifetime supply of plastic combs, 40 pairs of shoelaces including 2 pair of the hard to find 42" flat dress shoe in beaver brown, an Acme pastry wizard with optional frosting swirler, 2 Mitchell 300 reels with vintage monofilament, one pair of used size 13.5 EEE Air Jordans, 4000 1/4 dress screws in brass coated alloy, future shares in a walnut orchard, a Troy-bilt Pony with a broken gearbox housing (but otherwise in real nice shape), a flashlite collection from the 1960's (mostly D sizes, but some C's), or a 1965 Rambler wagon in salmon pink (needs restoration).
Just in case someone was thinking about offering any of those, we'll take those off the table.

I've just got a good imagination which is what you guys need to get if you want to own a Browning HiPower with 8 magazines!

I listed the Browning in the classifieds for sale if anyone is interested. I'm still flexible but I scratched the concealable 9mm itch with a Kimber Solo.
