![]() It is fed by a single stack 8 round detachable box magazine. ![]() It has been chambered for the 7.65mm Browning(.32 ACP) cartridge. The pistol is made from carbon steel and has a blued finish. This Nazi marked FN Browning model M1922 is a self loading, semi-automatic pistol that utilizes the blowback system of operation. I'm just curious as to the history of the thing.And am hoping someone on here knows a lot about them and can help me because there were many made and floating around Europe. I hear my Grandfather won it in a gambling bet from the guy who brought it back from WW2. I'm pretty sure the gun was produced and delivered prior to the German takeover of the factory in 1940 or 41. Normally there is an FN inside an oval in this area but this gun has a crown over M and a crown over B (Belgium perhaps?).Īpparently the serial numbers for these guns can be quite confusing because of all the different contracts they were manufactured for. What I'm confused about is the 2 proof marks on the trigger guard. There is no German markings on the gun that I can tell. It has the cyrillic writing on the side indicating 'Property of State' Serial number 69657. I'm about to get a pistol which as far as I can tell was made for the Yugoslavian Army.
