Project Jawbreaker


judgeman

Recommended Posts

Some time ago I attempted a dream project.

 

Using simple hand tools, a bunch of real steel bits, sheer rage and just a little bit of 12 year old Glenlivet I would create the ultimate reproduction of the love child of FN Herstel and John Mosses Browning, the Hi Power.

 

"But Judgeman, WE already made a HI Power"

 

Yes they did. And it looks like butt.

 

I'm going to try again to make it look not like butt.

First up are a pair of stock BHP MK III grips which are a simple enough file job.

Next up we have a Cylinder and Slide extended slide lock. This was a *badgeress* and a half to file and fit and took six or so hours. I have a C&S extended single side safety but that's a WIP.

 

The slide is being sent to a prop replicator on The RPF and will be filled and then cut for a dovetail for a stock BHP MK 2 rear sight.

 

TO DO - mount CS safety/ rs hammer strut / MK III hammer
