Keeping Traditions Alive Since 1953

There's no other pistol on the market that carries this much history and this much modern engineering at the same time. The FN High Power traces its lineage back to John Browning's final handgun design, a pistol that went on to serve over 50 militaries and became NATO's standard sidearm for the better part of eight decades. FN didn't just dust off the old blueprints here. They rebuilt it from the ground up, keeping the iconic silhouette while rethinking almost everything underneath.
The heart of this pistol is a 4.7-inch cold hammer-forged barrel with a recessed target crown and a polished chamber and feed ramp. That combination is what gives hammer-forged barrels their reputation for long-term accuracy and durability. The all-steel frame and slide give the gun real weight at 40 ounces, which pays dividends in felt recoil. That mass up front keeps muzzle rise in check and makes fast follow-up shots easier to manage. The single-action trigger breaks cleanly with impressive pull-to-pull consistency, and without a magazine disconnect in the design, nothing is robbing you of trigger quality. The FDE PVD finish looks sharp and holds up well to regular handling and range use.
FN addressed every complaint people had with the original. The redesigned beavertail and rounded, serrated hammer work together to eliminate the hammer bite that plagued older Hi-Powers. Front and rear grip checkering combined with a high undercut trigger guard give you a secure, natural hold. The controls are fully ambidextrous, including the thumb safety and slide release, and the magazine catch is reversible for left-handed use. The driftable steel blackout sights sit in a standard dovetail pattern, so upgrading to a different sight picture down the road is straightforward. Field stripping uses a captive takedown lever rather than the fussy pin-and-bushing method of the original, making cleaning sessions a lot less annoying.
This FDE model ships with two sets of polymer grip panels in matching tan and olive drab, giving you a bit of personalization right out of the box. FN also offers a range of G10 and wood grip options separately if you want to take the look further. The zippered ballistic range bag that comes in the box is a nice bonus and actually useful for range trips.
No, the FN High Power uses its own proprietary magazine design that is not compatible with original Hi-Power magazines. FN redesigned the magazine to achieve a higher capacity than older Hi-Power mags. Replacement and spare magazines are available directly from FN and through most major distributors.
No, FN deleted the magazine disconnect on the new High Power. The original Browning Hi-Power included one at the request of the French military, which had the side effect of degrading trigger quality. Without it, the new High Power's single-action trigger is noticeably cleaner and more consistent, and the pistol will fire with the magazine removed.
Yes, the grip panels are interchangeable and FN designed the system with customization in mind. The FDE model comes with two polymer grip pairs right out of the box. FN also offers seven aftermarket grip options in G10 and wood materials, including black, black cherry, Hyena brown, dirty olive, and walnut finishes.
FN specifically redesigned the beavertail and changed the geometry of the rounded, serrated hammer to address this. For most hand sizes, hammer bite is either greatly reduced or completely eliminated. It was one of the most common complaints about original Hi-Powers, and it's a problem FN clearly prioritized fixing.
The trigger pull is rated at approximately 5 pounds from the factory. Real-world testing by reviewers has clocked it closer to 4 lbs 6 oz with very consistent pull-to-pull variation, which is impressive for a factory pistol. The single-action-only design means you get a relatively short, clean break with good reset.
Yes, this is one area where the new High Power made major improvements over the original. The ambidextrous thumb safety and slide release work equally well on both sides, and the magazine release is fully reversible for left-hand use. The original Hi-Power had very limited accommodation for southpaws, so this is a meaningful upgrade.
