Frequently Asked Questions

What modifications were made to the new 2022 FN High Power in this video?

The custom FN High Power features a rail for a Surefire X300, a Holosun 507k red dot sight, Trijicon HD front sight, custom grip texturing, slide porting, and a single-stage trigger job. The barrel was left factory for aesthetic reasons.

Can you mount optics on the new FN High Power models?

Yes, the new 2022 FN High Power has a larger slide that accommodates optics like the Holosun 507k, which is an advantage over older Hi-Power designs and even some 1911s.

What kind of trigger work was done on this FN High Power?

A custom single-stage trigger job was performed, flattening the factory curved trigger to a 'Garth weight' profile. It features no take-up, a crisp break, and minimal over-travel, rivaling other custom Hi-Power triggers.

Are the internal parts of the new FN High Power interchangeable with older models?

While the internal mechanisms function similarly to older Hi-Powers (like the P35), the parts are not interchangeable. The new FN High Power is larger, and its components have different shapes and dimensions.
