Description

2/28/26 - Here we have a rare Finnish contract High Power for sale. Per Vanderlinden's book on FN pistols, with the outbreak of the Winter War, Finland requested a supply of High Powers on a short schedule. Only ~2,400 such examples were shipped, all in serial range 11,000-15,000. This pistol is in the proper serial range. It is all matching, and has the proper Finnish proofs including two "SA" proof marks. While all numbers match, the barrel does have a strike through the original serial and is renumbered to match the frame. One on the left side of the frame, and the other on the left side of the trigger guard. The gun has an import mark on the heel of the grip. The bluing on the gun rates about 85-90% with finish loss occurring along high edges, on parts of the front strap, the bottom of the backstrap, on both sides of the muzzle, and on the bottom of the frame underneath where the barrel runs. The red-back grips are in good condition. The left grip has a spot of indentation and smoothing in the center of the grip. The bore is bright with deep rifling. This gun has a Finnish "SA" marked magazine.
