I've read that Browning named it the Hi-Power because it was the first commercially successful high capacity pistol (double stack magazine); hence high firepower.

That is partically correct. John Browning designed the gun, and it was originally known as the Browning model HP35. Many simply called it the model "HP". Because of its high capacity mag, I became better known as the "Hi-Power."My Hi-Power is one of the Nazi contract pistols. WaA103 with S/N-76810. I love it! It shoots great, and lives up to its' name!Matt
