I have 2 FMs that I have done the mag block on . It is easy if you know how to take the pistol down . There are some videos on Utube on the procedure .
Also on how to disassemble the pistol . Not real difficult but you do need to do it right . If you are not confident in doing this then don't do it .
The mag drops clear now and does help with the trigger pull a bit . Less creep.
I personaly have never had any hammer bite on the one pistol that has a spur hammer . You can't limp wrest it or you could get bit . My wife has been bite .
Though both of mine are good shooters I do not ike the sights but have not change them out .
I think the prices of the orig. Hi-Powers are way of line but I would gladly pay it for the Browning if I could afford it . I love them .They are the most comfortable pistol I have ever held .

Very nice thread with pics guys.

I've owned many over the years, preferring the ring hammer models over spurs. None in the fold presently.

I don't own one yet but I did shoot that GP competition model and really like it.

If anyone is interested, Aim Surplus just posted Israeli Police trade ins for about $450 - $500, depending on condition.
