Message me if you can help. Picked up what appears to be an older Hi Power with the Tangent sight. It appears used but very little, need a ball park value as well. [Linked Image]

Not enough information. How is i marked? Is it Inglis or Belgian? Slotted receiver? Matching numbers? Don't remember the details but there is something about if the inside of the gripes are painted "Red" mean something with HI-Powers.

Gun Broker completed auctions would be a starting place. They nice guns and great shooters!!

There's a seller has one TGT almost similar to yours, Belgium marks,
He's asking 1000$, prices are subjective. Then there's gun broker,
So something to go with.

Somebody wanted to swap me a Browning Hi Power several years ago. I don't remember whether it was for my pop-up camper or my Honda CX500. There's a lot to know about the Hi Power, and that right there is just about the extent of my knowledge on them so I had to pass on that trade.

Not an expert by any means ...
I have 2 of the Argentine license Manufactured models. These were made With FN equipment and engineering in Argentina. I have shot both of mine quite a bit and they are reliable & super accurate.
I remember way back when I was young (70's) all the old timers talking up how good the Hi-Power was. Always stuck with me and I had to have 1 .. or 2...
I know there are quite a few variants and some are gunporn material. https://www.nighthawkcustom.com/browning-hi-power
I used one of mine for my concealed carry class.

Looks like a Capitan model from the 1990's-ish. Can't really read the serial number on the barrel, but here is a serial number lookup/translator: https://www.browning.com/support/date-your-firearm/date-your-pistol/hi-power-pistol.html
