FN Browning Model 1906

Description

4/11/25 - This is a nice example of a Browning Model 1906, chambered in 6.35mm or .25 ACP. It is virtually identical to the Colt Model 1908 Vest Pocket, which was based on the same John Browning prototype, and was the inspiration for FN's later Baby Browning design. Although Browning's handgun patents were sold to both FN and Colt, this was the only case in which both companies put the same design into production without any significant modification. This one is all matching and has the proper Belgian proofs. There is also what appears to be some sort of unit number on the right side of the slide. The gun has retained roughly 85% of its original finish with minor spotty wear primarily along the top of the slide. Some light spotty oxidation here and there. Fitted with period-correct horn grips and comes with one magazine. Excellent bore.
