Browning Hi Power - Custom Package Announcement

[Black Box Customs]

Respect Your Elders

As proof that you can teach an old dog new tricks, our Custom Shop embarked on a journey to see if we can give the classic Browning Hi-Power a much needed update. We took a Girsan MC-35 BHP clone and created a modern take on the legendary Browning Hi Power design. First we performed an optic cut to mount the Trijicon integrated RMR footprint plate with built in rear sight. Next we took our popular Patrol slide package and tailored it to the BHP. This slide milling package has lightning pockets and forward serrations to reduce the reciprocating mass of the slide and to give the user more options for slide manipulation. Lastly, we designed a dust cover rail mount that can attach the most popular pistol weapon lights on the market. A modernization to a classic that can hopefully last another 87 years. If you have a BHP that would like a timely update contact us today!

That’s a very nice job, better than the new fn

I bet it's a sweet shooter!

How did you manage to put a rail on a gun that doesn’t come with it? Thats pretty sweet and I’ll probably send mine off to you guys for some work like that when I get it.

 

[hunterhenderson]

I have one of these in stock trim, its a beauty!!

 

[Bartok5]

Can you please answer a few more questions?

1. What is required nowadays to ship the pistol to you? Do I need a specific Short-Term Authorization To Transport?

2. How is the slide prepared for the CeraKote? Specifically, are they grit-blasted or bead blasted before paint?

3. Does the Trigger Tuning include removal of the Magazine Disconnect? Will you work on pistols with the Magazine Disconnect removed? What kind of Trigger pull weight can I expect?

Thanks in advance for your time and consideration!

That looks amazing. Everything about it looks perfect

 

[wixx]

Omg when my transfer goes through I'm gonna be on you like a fat kid on cake!!

Will you be producing a front sight at the correct height to go along with this?

Very nice to see public pricing. Gives me an idea if I can actually afford getting something done without wasting your guy's time.

1) If you're sending the frame for us to do work on, the answer is yes you need an ATT.

2) We low PSI grit blast and do acetone bake cycling to purge particulates and oils from the metal pores prior to Cerakote application.

3) Are you referring to the Magazine safety feature on the BHP? If so, then yes we can remove that feature and that would be separate from the tuning service. Pull weight is dependent each individual pistol being worked on.

Can you do a traditional HP serration?

Not the exact serrated pattern but we can do something similar. We can also do a more traditional 1911 style front serration as well.

Will you be producing a front sight at the correct height to go along with this?

Since this build is using the Trijicon 1911 RMR mount with integrated rear and front night sights the irons are already spec'ed to co-witness with RMR footprint compatible optics. We just didn't opt to mount the front iron for this build.

We got the extra icing for you too.

We designed a low profile rail insert and milling that profile into the dust cover and installing it. Since there isn't much material to work with we decided to go with the insert instead to deliver the rail feature.

ughhh love

Love to see some samples of the og HP and 1911 serrations. Keep up the good work!
