A FN1910/1922 like this one was used to assassinate Arch Duke Ferdinand of Austria and his wife in 1914 precipitating in World War I I paid $350 for it three years ago. Dad needs a little help. Designed by Robert Browning and built in Belgium as Colt refused to produce it. That's JOHN Browning, the best known gun designer in the Free World. I doubt Colt was interested, they had the popular 1903.32 and 1908.380.

The 1910 was directed at European sales. Production ran from 1912 till 1983 and was originally designed for the German Luftwaffe (Airforce) issued to their pilots. The 1910 was not much used by military forces, it was a police and commercial sales model.

It was then issued to the Military and Police and not available to private citizens The 1910/22 you show was designed for an FN contract with the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes (now Yugoslavia, pretty much.) Other customers include Holland, Belgium, France, Sweden, and Denmark, and more sales to Yugoslavia. Some for army issue, some for police; some 7.65/.32, some 9mm Browning Short/.380. The Germans did not get any great number until they invaded Belgium in 1940 and put the FN plant back to work making weapons for the Nazis. They held the FN plant in WW I but the Belgians were more stubborn then and would not work for the Boche. The serial numbers are hard to run down, but this is a pre-war gun made sometime before 1941 and valuable in that respect.

Maybe so, but there are a lot of things about this particular gun that greatly reduce its dollar value. First, it is rusty. Second, it has a simple adjustable rear sight and crude thumb rest left grip panel, probably added to gain BATF import points for surplus sale in the USA after GCA 1968.

Not at all original as issued to whoever. A FN1910/1922 like this one was used to assassinate Arch Duke Ferdinand of Austria and his wife in 1914 precipitating in World War I Pop's going to have to do some 'splainin to tell how a gun designed in 1922 and introduced in 1923 was used to shoot anybody whatsoever in 1914. The conventional wisdom was the assassin used a plain 1910 but there is a good deal of contrary opinion that he had the older Browning/FN model of 1900. I paid $350 for it three years ago Much more than I would give for the condition and alterations. Okay, I have dug out some info from Anthony Vanderlinden's 'FN Browning Pistols'. The serial number, left-side slide legend style, the right-side grip style, and the star marking and letter B on the right-side frame all point to a pistol made in the late 40's or early 50's and supplied after 1948 to the British Sector Berlin Police. The Germans were not allowed to manufacture weapons at that time, so had to purchase weapons from outside the country.

The left-hand grip panel with thumbrest looks like an FN product, but was probably added later. The adjustable sight does not look like the few pictures I have seen of 1922 adjustables. If FN supplied it, I believe it would have been paired with a much higher front sight. Regarding history of the 1910: Browning made the prototype of the 1910 in 1908.

I don't know if it was offered to Colt (some of his designs were offered to both companies), but Colt was probably quite happy with the 1903/1908 model that they already had in production. The 1910 gradually replaced the FN 1900, and was quite popular as a personal protection and plainclothes (and sometime uniformed) police gun. In 1914, a radical faction of Serbian Intelligence supplied four 1910 pistols (which had been shipped to FN's Belgrade agent), to three young Bosnian Serbs.

One of these men, Gavrilo Princep, used his to assassinate the heir to the Austrian throne, Archduke Ferdinand and his wife on June 28, 1914. This act started the avalanche of events that led to World War I. As Jim Watson noted above, the 1922 version was designed for Yugoslavia. They needed an economical service pistol and could not afford the Luger or FN's Browning 1903 (a service pistol in 9X20mm Browning). FN engineers took the 1910, lengthened the frame to accept an eight-round magazine in 9X17mm Browning (.380 ACP), and added a longer barrel with a bayonet fitting to lengthen the slide. The result became a fairly successful military and police sidearm (often paired with the 1910 in police departments in the same way as the Walther PP and PPK).
