Howdy all,
I've handled a couple of FN / Browning Model 1922s at gun shows, and it seems like a pretty neat little pistol available for a reasonable price. I'm interested to hear more about them from anyone who owns one and/or has fired one extensively. I prefer functional collectibles, so I'd like to hear any hints on what to look out for.
I've also read that these can be found with WWII Nazi proofmarks, although I understand that it wasn't an official issue handgun for front-line troops. More info about this would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Footnote: I'm not interested in debating the effectiveness of the .32ACP round for SD. That's why I'm posting this in the "C&R" section rather than the "General Handgun" or "Semi-Auto" section. Cheers!
