FN Hi-Power Standard Adjustable-Sight 9mm Luger, Belgian 1986, Polished Blue, 13-Round
Made in Belgium in 1986, this FN Hi-Power Standard combines the classic single-action design with the less-common factory micrometer rear sight. Finished in polished blue over carbon steel and wearing checkered walnut grips, it delivers the look and handling collectors expect from a pre-Mark II Hi-Power, plus fine-tune sighting capability right out of the box.
Condition
Overall Condition: Very good condition, showing only light, superficial signs of prior handling or use.
Bore Condition: Good – Clean, well-maintained, minor wear marks.
Bore Rifling: Good Rifling – Intact, well-defined lands and grooves.
Specific Condition Notes: The pistol retains its original polished blue finish with scattered scratches and small blemishes. The left grip panel is missing its gold-tone Browning medallion, though the walnut checkering remains sharp.
What’s Included
- FN Hi-Power Standard Adjustable-Sight pistol
- One 13-round steel double-stack magazine
This Hi-Power is the Standard series full-size model chambered in 9mm Luger, featuring the desirable 4.65-inch barrel and 13+1 capacity. The factory-fit micrometer rear sight and dovetail ramp front blade allow precise elevation and windage adjustments not found on the more common fixed-sight variants.
Built on a carbon-steel frame and slide, the pistol showcases FN’s high-gloss blued finish that defined late-production Belgian Hi-Powers. The ring hammer, single-side thumb safety, and vertical rear slide serrations reflect the classic pre-Mark II configuration collectors seek.
Internally, the single-action, short-recoil system provides the crisp trigger break that made the Hi-Power a service pistol benchmark for decades. The clean, bright bore with strong rifling supports both its shootability and well-kept status.
With its original walnut grips, original finish, and serial number range confirming 1986 production, this example offers a blend of historical appeal and practical features ideal for both range use and collection display.
