With a long-enjoyed reputation for outstanding reliability and ergonomics, the Browning Hi-Power (BHP) needs only limited work to make it a superb defensive pistol. Like anything else, though, the end result depends on the platform with which you begin, and some Hi-Powers make better base guns than others.

I went for a 'photo drive' with some photographer friends this morning. It was a cold and damp morning, with a boring grey sky but, as I always say: 'There is no bad light!' We drove down a country road and stopped along the way to find new treasures and rediscover old ones.

Museum specialist Charley Potter sorts fluid preserved specimens of bats from research collections at the Smithsonian’s Museum of Natural History. Glass jars holding the specimens toppled and smashed during the Aug. 23, 2011 earthquake. Eight jars of fish specimens located at the Smithsonian’s Museum Support Center, a storage and research facility in Suitland, Md., also fell from their shelves. The specimens have been collected and re-secured in temporary holdings. (Photo by James DiLoreto)
