Check the 1911forum and the high road; lots of experts there.I am concerned for the security of our great Nation; not so much because of any threat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within.

+1 for fdkay's post. It sounds like an ordinance proof mark to me too. Is it manufactured by Browning, FN or a licensed copy?Comment

It means it passed inspection during live test firing...its kind of like the tag in your underwear.."Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering if they made a difference in the world. The MARINES don't have that problem." ....Ronald ReaganComment

I looked around a little on a BHP web site and, from what you are describing, that is a standard FN proof mark. This is a pretty cool site if you are into Hi Powers: http://hipowertalk.com/forum/There are no extraordinary men... just extraordinary circumstances that ordinary men are forced to deal with.
