Hi guys I recently acquired a feg hi power (pjk) and after my first trip to the range it was jamming/ double feeding quite a bit so I went home and cleaned and oiled it up pretty good.

yesterday I went to shoot again with higher grain ammo and it still double feeds, and I also feel as I’m “outrunning” the trigger, it’s pretty much impossible to rapid fire this pistol as half the trigger pulls don’t do anything.

Any guidance? sorry, not too knowledgeable about these pistols

Anything about the accuracy or glow sight or trigger? Overall build quality? Would it be worth a buy if I really wanted an HP for carry/home defense?

I threw out a low ball bid on a NIB MAC Inglis P-35 and I won!! I thought I’d be picked off by one of you snipers and never thought my bid would win. $325 plus 15% bidders fee - $373 plus shipping. Crazy that I won. It will go in the safe and only come out for my wwii range days with my 1911s, walther p.38 and my other hi-power or partnered up with my enfield no.4 mark 2.

I purchased a MKIII BHP recently that was lightly used (lucky break after lurking for years). It goes without saying that I quickly fell in love with it, but miss some of the modern amenities (sights, better trigger, etc.).

I was searching the internet and found recommendations for BHP smiths, but most that I've reached out to have closed their books (I have not reached out to Novak or Nighthawk). Some of the smiths recommended others that can do the work but none of them had worked on BHPs.

Can anyone recommend BHP smiths that have done great work?

I am also very new to the custom-work world, so apologies for any ignorance in advance. Thank you!

Greetings all,

I have always wanted a Hi-Power and, on impulse I bid on this on Gunbroker and won. I should have it in my hands in a couple of days. I'm pretty stoked - I have no info on it other than the serial number, which I believe dates it to 1987, which is the date advertised by the seller. In my pre-ownership mind, I am thinking of all the things I want to do it, which at the moment, consists of maybe some nice wood grips and maybe all new springs. Of course the first things I will do with it, is inspect it and shoot it. I haven't searched this subreddit yet, so I'm sure this question is asked a lot, but, what do you fine folks think should be on the "to do" list for new Hi-Power owners?

Hey all,

I recently brought my FM to range. I ended up shooting my other pistol and only had the chance to put 50 rounds through the FM, Winchester and Geco ball 9mm.

During this I experienced two stove pipes aka failures to extract.

The gun has slight patina, but It is hard to say how much the gun has been actually shot. May be it is just that I need to properly clean it with elbow grease.

So what could be the culprit for the stove pipes? Should I seek to replace springs, exctractor or something?

I'm jonesing after one of the MC P35 PI's- the shortened versions. But I already have a pair of Hi Powers and a bunch of mags for them; I don't want to buy a "Hi Power" that takes completely different mags that I have to source a separate supply of.
So, if anyone owns one of the Girsans: will they function with normal BHP mags?

Picked up this FN Herstal hi power at a gun show for cheap. Believe it’s a MKII. Had some really ugly plastic grips with a lanyard ring. Removed them and installed houge Cocobolo checkered thin grips. I’m very happy with the results! Looking forward to owning this beauty for a while!

I’m looking to upgrade the grips and add a magwell to an FEG hi power I recently purchased. What are some good combos that fit well? Or just magwell recommendations in general would be much appreciated!

Edit: I’m also looking for a super extended safety, like shadow 2 orange. Does anybody make something like that?

First gun I ever shot was my father’s Belgium hipower and since then I been obsessed. The SA35 has the enhanced spring kit but everything else is stock.

Would love any input on what I could do to upgrade these further, especially if anyone had any experience with upgrading the Girsan

Hey! I'm bigboarballistics, a new poster here and a gun YouTube channel owner. Just wanted to make a little introduction here. Here's my sub-5000 sn SA-35 Hi Power clone and some other stuff

Haven’t shot it yet but I can tell the quality is there especially for the price. It was a pain to remove the magazine safety but it was worth it. Instantly got a 25 percent better trigger. Can’t wait to see how she shoots

I’m only posting this here in this sun as a thank you for input during the making of these. This is for the guys that may want to try these out but are still a little unsure, id also like to point out that these have a money back guarantee if they don’t meet your satisfaction.

Code: BRNIGHP35

For those who have already bought these I will credit your accounts based on how many you bought as I didn’t foresee doing this deal at launch.

Good lord these repro grips from Amazon are chonky. But they look really good after a night soaking in boiled linseed oil. Now to shoot it and see if my sentiment holds.

I recently got a Centurion 14 (very happy with it), but whenever the included magazine (15-rounder, I think it's a Mec-Gar made one) is loaded with an even number of rounds between 8 and 14, there's an audible rattle coming from the cartridges in the magazine. The same thing happens when the mag is full with all 15 rounds and in the gun (only when it's in the gun and there's some pressure pushing the top round own, either from the slide or my finger). This is my first Hi-Power. Is this just normal with 15-round magazines or something specifically wrong with mine? I haven't had any feeding issue. Just rattle.

Edit: Unrelated, but where are the Turks getting this "14" thing from? The classic standard capacity for the Hi-Power is 13 rounds, and the new standard is 15 rounds. Alpharms calls their Hi-Power the "Alpha 14" (in Turkey), Century calls it the "Centurion 14", and Tisas calls theirs the "Zig 14" (in Turkey). Where is this from?

Now I need wood grips and a retention holster. Going for an NCR service pistol.
