Pre-War Belgian Model 1935 High Power Pistol by FN

Serial #31684, 9mm Para., 4 3/4" barrel with a fine, bright bore that has some traces of mild freckling within the grooves. This is a tangent sight-equipped, slotted pistol that has matching numbers on the frame, barrel, and slide. The metal retains about 60-70% of the original blue finish that has faded along the slide and forward portion of the frame. There is some further plum-brown freckling on the slide as well. The Belgian military proof stamps and other markings are still crisp and clear. The checkered walnut grips are in very good-near fine shape, with very little wear or flattening of the points. The pistol comes with a single correct magazine. This is a fine pre-Occupation High Power that looks great, and would make a fine addition to any World War II collection. FFL or C&R
