y aint my 9mm parabellum not shooting
9mm
Yes, It is the same as the 9mm Hi Power Manual.
The 76C prefix dates your browning 9mm hi-power to 1976.
True weight is going to depend on what grain bullet you are shooting.
The 9mm pistol has been used by the military of several nations, by 100's of police forces, and as a defensive firearm by private citizens. It is also used for sport shooting.
i sold my high power 9mm pistol for $450 last year.
The 9mm came into popularity because of it's high capacity magazines which hold between 15-20 rounds where a .45 holds between 7-10. the .45 fires a 185-230 grain bullet, the 9mm about half that. The stopping power of the 9mm is minimal compared to the .45. The bullet diameters are .45 inch and .38 inch. The 9mm is less expensive to shoot and recoil is minimal which makes it a good choice for target shooting, the .45 is a little more costly to shoot and has a bit more recoil. It would also depend on what you want it for, to shoot target and such the 9mm will do it for you, for defence I would take the .45 over the 9mm alrhough the 9mm is a fair defence piece. they both have their points, Good luck choosing......
Browning High Power

No. The .380 cartridge is sometimes called 9mm Corto or 9mm Kurz, but in addition to a different cartridge shape, the basic design of the two pistols is generally different. MOST .380s are blowback, and 9mms are locked breech- due to the higher power of the 9mm Parabellum cartridge. Also, please understand that there are SEVERAL different 9mms- the 9mm Largo, 9mm Browning Long, 9mm Steyr, 9mm Makarov, 9mm Glisenti, 9mm Magnum etc, besides the 9mm Parabellum.
