Smith & Beecham Prototype Polymer High Power
This video explores the Smith & Beecham Prototype Polymer High Power, a rare experimental firearm. Developed by a small South African company, this prototype aimed to create a polymer frame for the classic Browning High Power. The video highlights the design challenges, such as the need for a substantial metal insert to accommodate the High Power's original metal frame components. Despite some interest, including a submission for South African police trials by Republic Arms, the design ultimately didn't offer significant advantages and saw very limited production.
