Belgian 1967 FN Browning Hi-Power T-Series 9mm, High-Polish Blue, 4.63 in Barrel
Made in Belgium in 1967, this T-Series FN Browning Hi-Power exemplifies the classic late-1960s commercial pattern, complete with high-polish blue, ring hammer, and external extractor.

Serial number T199634 places this pistol firmly within the sought-after T-Series production run, confirmed by its forged frame, ring hammer, and external extractor. These features represent the last evolution before the 1968 Gun Control Act changed U.S. import markings and subsequent production details.
The high-polish blued finish reflects FN’s meticulous fit and finish of the era, offering deep luster over the forged carbon-steel slide and frame. Browning Arms Company St. Louis, MO & Montreal, P.Q. address lines remain sharp and clear on the left side of the slide.
Checkered walnut grip panels provide a secure, traditional feel, while the left-side thumb safety and checkered magazine release keep controls intuitive for right-handed shooters. Fixed blade-and-notch sights stay true to the original combat configuration.
Internally, the 4.63 in barrel shows a mirror-bright bore with crisp lands and grooves, matching the pistol’s reputation for accuracy. All mechanical functions operate smoothly, underscoring the pistol’s well-maintained status.
