hi-power
I recently came across a beautiful, older Browning Hi-Power - probably 30 - 40 years old (no, the idiot{me} didn't jot down the serial number). The price is good, but I'm suspicious that it has been re-finished.
Is there any way to positively tell??
How would refinishiing affect the value??
God Bless America and...
NEVER Forget WACO
NEVER, EVER Forget 911

If it's Double Action, it's probably the "BDM" model as shown in this photo. 
It was only in production for a relatively short time in the 90's. Either Triple K or some of the on-line mag. dealers might have the correct magazine in stock.0 -
No, it is not a BDM. Looks just like a hi-power. I will try to get the link tomorrow and post so you can see pics. 0 -
though they no longer build but only distribute the firearms now adays i would contact browning direct 0 -

If it's not the BDM might be one of the Hungarian knock-offs with the spurious markings? Bunch of them were reportably imported from the near east as surplus, awhile back.0 -
Sounds like you found an HP-DA, totally different from a Hi-Power. They were brought out for the European police market. As you have found, regular Hi Power mags do not fit. You are probably going to have a tough time finding more mags for it, as I have only ever seen one. Google HP-DA magazine and you might get lucky.
Does it look like this:?
