- It is based on a design by American firearms inventor John Browning, and completed by Dieudonné Saive at Fabrique Nationale (FN) of Herstal, Belgium. Browning died in 1926, several years before the design was finalized. The Hi-Power is one of the most widely used military pistols in history, having been used by the armed forces of over 50 countries. However, despite the Hi-Power being a single-action firearm, it had a heavy trigger pull, almost ten pounds, which is far heavier than that of the 1911, which was less than four pounds.

- The Hi Power name is somewhat misleading and alluded to the 13-round magazine capacity; almost twice that of contemporary designs such as the Luger or Mauser 1910. The pistol is often referred to as an HP (for "Hi-Power" or "High-Power") or as a GP (for the French term, "Grande Puissance"). The term P-35 is also used, based on the introduction of the pistol in 1935. It is most often called the "Hi Power", even in Belgium. It is also known as the BAP (Browning Automatic Pistol), particularly in Irish service. Although the Browning name will appear on pistols imported to the United States, the model name "Hi-Power" will not be seen on any genuine FN/Browning manufactured pistol, regardless of country of origin or location of sale—clones will, however, place the "Hi-Power" mark.

- Browning Hi-Power — бельгийский/американский самозарядный пистолет. Пистолет был разработан бельгийской компанией Fabrique Nationale на основе идей знаменитого конструктора Джона Браунинга, изначально - по заказу французской армии, нуждавшейся в замене устаревших револьверов. В конструкции Browning Hi-Power широко применялись технические решения, ранее использовавшиеся в "Кольте" М1911. Различиями были другой калибр - 9 мм - и значительно большая ёмкость магазина. Фактически, до появления пистолета Стечкина "Браунинг" был рекордсменом по этому показателю (13 патронов). Он изготавливался и изготавливается по сей день из высококачественной стали, выгодно отличаясь по прочности и надёжности от современных пистолетов, в конструкциях которых широко применяются пластмассы и лёгкие сплавы.

- Initially, the "High Power" pistol was designed by John M. Browning in 1925 and was patented in the USA in 1927, soon after the death of the Browning. The design was acquired by Belgian state-owned company FN Herstal, and improved by FN designer Dieudonne Saive. The resulting pistol was shelved until 1935, when Belgian army was ready to adopt new sidearm. The HP was offered for trials and won, and was adopted as a Model 1935 pistol. Soon after that it was also adopted by Belgian police and by many foreign countries, including Britich Commonwealth ones (UK, Canada, Australia etc.). The High Power is the only sidearm that served for both sides in WWII - Germany used many HPs manufactured in occupied Belgium, while Allies used HPs manufactured mostly in Canada by company Inglis.
