[QUOTE="Buzzdraw, post: 3037028, member: 385"] My experience with the Mk II and later HP's has not been positive. Browning was producing a softer metal product than they had turned out in the 1960's and 1970's. The slide stop notch in the slide was becoming misshapen and the frame was showing signs of wear when I traded off the nice looking Mk II Practical I owned after only a few 1000's standard pressure rounds. The WWII era ones would have to be considered as of suspect metal. [/QUOTE]
