Historical Context & Origin

Region: Belgium (Fabrique Nationale, Herstal) – later issued under Nazi Germany
Material: Blued steel with original walnut grips
Period: World War II, 1941–1944

Description
An authentic Belgian Browning Fabrique Nationale (FN) Model 1922 pistol, chambered in 7.65mm (.32 ACP) and produced during the German occupation of Belgium (1941–1944). Originally designed for the Yugoslav military, the Model 1922 became one of the most widely issued sidearms of Nazi Germany, favored by Luftwaffe pilots and German Army officers for its reliability and craftsmanship.

This example features an extended 114 mm barrel, an eight-round magazine, and bears “eagle/WaA140” Waffenamt inspection stamps and “eagle/swastika” firing proofs, confirming official German wartime use. The slide is marked:
“FABRIQUE NATIONALE D’ARMES DE GUERRE HERSTAL BELGIQUE – BROWNING’S PATENT DEPOSÉ.”

The barrel has been professionally welded closed, permanently deactivating the firearm while preserving all period features for historical display and educational purposes.

Features

- Authentic WWII-era FN Browning Model 1922 pistol, 7.65 mm caliber

- Extended 114 mm barrel with eight-round magazine capacity

- Original checkered walnut grips with rear grip safety

- Factory stamp: “Fabrique Nationale d’Armes de Guerre Herstal Belgique – Browning’s Patent Depose”

- Wartime German acceptance and firing proofs (eagle/WaA140, eagle/swastika)

- Deactivated and safe for museum or collector display

Cultural Significance
The Browning Model 1922 reflects the industrial complexity of wartime Europe. Manufactured under occupation, it stands as a powerful reminder of how the FN Herstal plant—a cornerstone of Belgian innovation—was forced into German wartime production. Issued to officers and aviators of the Luftwaffe, the pistol embodies the fusion of John Browning’s engineering and the realities of military control during WWII. Its markings, patina, and mechanical integrity make it a museum-worthy artifact of 20th-century history.

Condition
Good preserved condition with clear wartime markings and age-consistent patina. Barrel permanently welded (non-functional). Walnut grips show light wear but remain fully intact. No modern restoration noted.

Dimensions (approximate)
Length: 7.75 in 

Age
Produced between 1941 – 1944, during the German occupation of Belgium.
