These examples carry Nazi production stamps, and most have simple chequered wood grips instead of the earlier horn or plastic grips bearing the FN logo. The purchase was made for the 1st and 2nd Timok infantry divisions of the first army.ġ910/1922 pistols went on to see extensive service in World War Two, and continued to be manufactured by the Germans after their occupation of Belgium and seizure of the FN factory. In 1913, a purchase order for 235, Model 1910 semi automatic pistols was made by the Serbian National Army. The FN Model 1910 was initially designed for the Kingdom of Serbia.
This model was aimed at military and police contracts and many examples were produced for various agencies. This was a larger model with a longer barrel (113 mm), slide extension, and a longer grip frame to accommodate an extra two rounds. A variant of the Model 1910 was known variously as the Model 1922 or 1910/22.
