What model of pistol is this?

[350 Mag]

My guess is it is a FEG product from Hungary. These pistols are more of a S&W clone than a High-Power clone, note the slide safety. Most FEG pistols are not highly regarded but my BHP offered good value for the price, I paid $159 (US) for it. Lastly, there was a 45acp made by FEG that looks similar to the one you show and it was a good pistol at an inexpensive price. The photo is my High-Power clone. Regards, Richard

High-Power clone:

It's a North American Arms Company (NAACO) Brigadier, the pistol that almost replaced the Browning Hi-Power in Canadian service. It's based mainly on the Hi-Power, but in a proprietary calibre (45 NAACO), and with a few changes such as the slide-mounted hammer-drop safety.

WOW, your bang on.

Modified Browning Hi Power P-35 circa 1950's.

The cartridge later became known as the .45 Win Mag.

Does anyone have a pick of a .45 win mag next to a .45acp?
