This video explores the FN Grand Browning, a largely unknown European interpretation of John Browning's locked-breech pistol patent. While Colt successfully developed the design into the iconic Model 1911 for the US military, FN's efforts in Belgium were disrupted by World War I. The FN Grand Browning, intended for European military service and chambered in 9.65x23mm, never reached widespread production, with only a few dozen examples ever made before the war. The video delves into the historical context and the potential impact this pistol might have had.
