Editing Browning Hi-Power (section)

===Design flaws===
The pistol has a tendency to "[[Hammer bite|bite]]" the web of the shooter's hand, between the thumb and forefinger. This bite is caused by pressure from the hammer spur, or alternatively by pinching between the hammer shank and grip tang. This problem can be fixed by altering or replacing the hammer, or by learning to hold the pistol to avoid injury. While a common complaint with the commercial models with spur hammers similar to that of the Colt "Government Model" automatic, it is seldom a problem with the military models, which have a smaller, rounded "burr" hammer, more like that of the Colt "Commander" compact version of the 1911. Another flaw is that the original small safety is very hard to release and re-engage. This is because when cocked, the shaft the safety turns on is under hammer spring pressure. Later versions went to a larger safety to address this issue.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.shootingillustrated.com/articles/2013/3/20/whats-wrong-with-the-hi-power/|title=What's Wrong With the Hi Power?|magazine=Shooting Illustrated|date=March 20, 2015}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.cylinder-slide.com/bhptoday.shtml|title=The Browning HI-POWER Today|magazine=Guns magazine|date=February 2004}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.americanrifleman.org/articles/2017/10/24/a-look-back-at-the-browning-high-power-pistol/|title=A Look Back at the Browning High Power Pistol|publisher=www.americanrifleman.org|date=October 24, 2017}}</ref>
