kcub ....I wonder why this gun did not have a more widespread following and impact in this country during the revolver heyday from its inception in the 1930s.
John Browning granted licenses of his handgun designs to Colt Firearms and Fabrique Nationale.

Each company was restricted to certain countries in the sales of JMB designs.

This meant Browning Arms could not import the Hi Power to the USA until the license expired in the 1950's.
