>gun is called the FN "High Power">shoots 9mmWhat did they mean by this?
I also remember this huge embarrassment from FN.Actually, what does FN make that's good or unique anymore? Is there anything other than the P90?
>>64324179It's about the yuge for its time 13+1 capacity, not calibreActually 9mm was considered high powered back in the day too, but still
>>64324185LICC but nobody has adopted it yet
To sissy euro hands a 9mm is "hi power"Remember they call everything a "military rifle" here including the plastic .22 peashooters that trannies bring to school for show-n-tell
>>64324179>furiously pushes up glasses>breathes heavily through nose>cracks knucklesErm ACTUALLY its called "Hi-Power" so yeah check your facts before posting something so inane, good sir
>>64324185Their "unique" stuff isn't available in the US.
>>64324371Are those fucking casting marks on the chamber of the barrel? What the fuck?
>>64324362wrong, when FN made their skinwalker abomination reproductions of the hi power they dubbed it the high power. the OP image is the fn high power
>>64324431Idk, I have an original and I want one of the new ones tooToo bad I haven't seen one anywhere
>>64324362>angerly sharts pantsThen why does it say "HIGH POWER" on the frame?
>>64324371What is going on with that magazine release and safety? Is that a safety?>>64324417I can't unsee it.Some Europoor probably has the privilege to buy that gun for 3000€ after 5 months of paperwork hoop jumping and a prostate extraction.
>>64324630If it makes you feel any better I barely see FN pistols for sale here in EuropeMost people looking for a striker gun buy Glocks or Walthers
>>64324371Yeah they can keep it
>>64324371What was the gimmick with this again? Cops were too retarded to use it properly so they had to make it idiot proof or something
>>64324179They meant fuckya mudda
>>64324179They need to just release a Mark IV already and stop messing around with these. Literally just make the same changes Springfield made with the SA-35 but give it a regular Novak cut instead of the t*rkshit Spr*ngfield is using and it will be a perfect gun.
>>64324732CZ75 already perfected the pattern
>>64324362yoo r dum
>>64324179It was named the Hi-Power (not high power). The name comes from the capacity, 13+1 in an era when 7/8 was normal.
>>64325361That is not the Browning Hi-PowerThat is the FN High PowerYou fucking retard
>>64324179Back in the 30s, 9mm was considered a powerful cartridge. Over time, people have gotten more resistant to bullets. That's why calibers like .32 and .380 used to be considered perfectly fine for self-defense. By 2075, people will be shrugging off .44 magnum. Eventually, energy weapons and melee will be the only way to kill people.
>>64325567No it wasn't. We had FOUTY FIVE AYY CEE PEE and .38 Super
>>64325626Yeah and now we have anons with 50bmg handcannons. Baka ass nigger.
>>64325658Oh really? Post yours, lying faggot
>>64324417casting marks would be things like parting lines from the mold, those would be MIM gate marks
>>64324179Bigg klip
>>64325668Get some fucking reading comprehension, scrub.
>>64324179>gun company is called FN>is neither obese nor african american
>>64324179Ok but I want one.
>>64324803>patternpeople who claim that the CZ75 and the Hi Power are part of the same "pattern" are usually nogun retards repeating something they heard in a TFB video.
>>64325721That's not yours
>>64326024I've owned both and I would still describe a CZ 75 as an improved BHP
>>64324179Well, the original "Grande Puissance" was going to have a 18-20rd capacity 9x19mm magazine, which was huge capacity by the standard of 1920s handguns (it was also gonna be striker-fired). But Browning died, and the French did their usual thing of complaining about various features until the pistol got shrunk down into something they found acceptably-sized, whereupon they walked away entirely and adopted their own shit domestic design. 100 years later modern FN produces the cursed OP bullshit and taints the name for all time.
>>64326673Where was it said that i have one, retard?
>>64326888You don't have one haha
>>64327005Fucking racist
>>64326797>Humanity could've had the perfect pistol 100 years ago but some fucking frog ruined it forever
>>64324417It's a compound barrel for economy using a MIM breech block like the Walther PPX. If you didn't know the Hi Power was also a two piece compound barrel.>>64324630Top one is a safety bottom one is a mag release.
>>64324179>What did they mean by this?its called the highpower because its 13-round capacity was double their other semi-auto pistols at the time, 6 or 7 round guns barely better than a revolver
>>64324688Pretty much. So the idea was to take the paddle mag release and make it infinitely worse. Genius move really.
>>64324179Its high powered compared to fuddy five
>>64324179A nickel Hi Power would be muy sexo
>>64326797Remember, the french are responsible for it having a magazine safety and possibly the concept of the magazine safety in general
>>64331114Best I can do is hard chrome
>>64325567this is what .825 G&A Magnum is for>>64324179in comparison to the 7-8 shot .32s that were the standard at the time, I would say that it was pretty fucking GP
>>64324179Yeah Browning should have called it the "Lo-Power" so the Fat Niggas could call this new abomination the "Low-Power." Or maybe the "Adequate Power" based on how 9mm fanboys like to describe it.
>>64331939Wtf, I can't even eat 20 chicken nuggets by myself, and I'm a 35 year old NEET
>>64331623>matte
>>64331939>>64332065>20 chicken nuggie mealPlease tell me that 20-piece servings aren't a regular thing in the Republic of Burgeristan. Surely they mean 2 sets of 10-piece servings.If 20-pieice servings are a real thing, they're meant to be shared, right? Right? RIGHT!?!
>>64332106it's specifically a family-sized-meal thingI have seen a number of people order it as a "yeah this takes care of all three kids" deal
>>64332106You can get a 40-piece at the US embassyhttps://www.mcdonalds.com/us/en-us/product/chicken-mcnuggets-40-piece.html
>>64332143>1650 calories >probably served with at least 350 calories of soda>a "single" meal that exceeds the day recommended caloric consumption of a grown manAmerica, please...
>>64332166Why do you hate freedom so much?
>>64332204Look, All I'm saying is that cocaine abuse is a much more rewarding way to give yourself premature cardiovascular failure. And it doesn't cause obesity.
>>64332218I much prefer opioids
>>64332166>exceeds the day recommended caloric consumption of a grown manan adult man needs like 2k calories for basic metabolism, more if they're physically active
>>64326797Was JMB a fucking time traveler or something, he designed a wonder 9 like 60 years before the term would even be thought of
>>64333236imo he was autistic enough not to be constrained by "le heckin military tradition", which leads to superior firearms designs. Same thing with Glock, Kalashnikov, and Stoner
>>64333298Gaston Glock was unironically a sperg, see picrel
>>64324179They peaked in 1903
>>64326760Well, I own both and I would describe them as completely different firearms
