Browning Fn 1922
Thought I would share this plus I got a new camera I wanted to try out. This particular FN 22 is a nazi Occupation pistol . When the Germans invaded Belgium they overtook John Browning's plant there.Along with the High Power the FN 22 was production was kept up to supply the German war machine. If you notice this FN22 has the "eagle over N" stamp this means it was for German police units primarily although often they would find their way into military service. The military stamps were produced with the familiar waffenampt eagle with a 140 suffix and a few others.

I saw one of these the other days with blood pitting and the Nazi proof marks. Really cool guns.

I have one of these with the nazi eagle markings but not as in such good condition as yours.
My grandfather won it in a poker match. Still have it. Need to replace the springs on it or something...... |

Awesome gun. I'm a fan of the Euro 7.65mm (.32 ACP) guns.
