WE Browning Hi-Power MK3 GBB Airsoft Pistol

Here we have the latest and greatest version of WE’s Browning Hi-Power replica, the MK3! One of the most widely used pistols on the planet this airsoft version of the classic pistol uses a 20 BB capacity double stack magazine, metal body & slide, adjustable rear sights, realistic polymer grips, working hammer and as per the real steel version will not fire without the magazine in place.

The WE Hi-Power includes a precision machined barrel assembly, realistic polymer grips, fixed sights, and beautiful full metal slide and lower receiver. This is all topped off by an efficient blowback system and solid trigger response.

The Mk3 Browning is another improved design from the original High Power concept of John Browning in 1911. Browning died in 1926 and never got to see his finished work. The pistol was actually a Fabrique Nationale (FN) of Herstal, Belgium product, derived by Mr Dieudonné Saive.

The pistol during its life even was used by the German army in 1940 after Belgium fell to the advancing ‘Blitzkrieg’ of General Rommel’s Wehrmacht Army. the German’s then taking control of the FN factory.

It was used by many countries but notably the Canadian company Inglis who made the Mk3 for the Canadian army and also the L9A1 variant used by the British army during the 1980’s where it too was replaced by the Glock 17 because of weight and an issue with the external safety.

FN Herstal continued to manufacture the variants of the pistol up to 2017 when Browning arms who hold the rights to the pistol, decided to end the run of production models in February 2018.

To buy an airsoft weapon in the UK you must have a valid airsoft defence.

This is not a licence, it is basically just proof that you intend to buy an airsoft weapon for use in airsoft.

An airsoft defence could be a UKARA or membership with the British Airsoft Club, and various other forms of defence.

You can only obtain an airsoft defence once you are over the age of 18.

To get an airsoft defence the law is that you should play at least 3 games of airsoft, and that you must have been playing for at least two months.

You can still buy an airsoft gun without a defence, provided you are 18 or older. If you choose to do this we would, by law, two tone (paint in a bright colour) parts of your chosen weapon. This is because an airsoft gun is considered a RIF aka Realistic Imitation Firearm, because they are so close to the real steel, whereas when you paint parts of it in a bright colour it becomes an IF aka Imitation Firearm. The reason being that the bright colours make it look less realistic to the public, and therefor less likely to be mistaken as real, were it to be used for any other purpose than airsoft.

When you order a gun from us you will need to add your defence details in the comments section of the cart. If you do not have a defence you will need to write the colour that you wish to be used for two toning your airsoft weapon.

Here is what's stated in the VCRA (Violent Crime Reduction) Act:

For airsoft skirmishing, the Association of British Airsoft is putting in place arrangements to allow retailers to check that individual purchasers are members of a genuine skirmishing club or site. The key elements of these arrangements are:
1. new players must play at least 3 (three) times in a period of not less than two months before being offered membership
2. membership cards with a photograph and recognised format will be issued for production to retailers
3. A central database will be set up for retailers to cross-check a purchaser’s details
4. member’s entry on the database will be deleted if unused for 12 months.
The defence for airsoft skirmishing can apply to individual players because their purchase of realistic imitation firearms for this purpose is considered part of the “holding” of a skirmishing event.
