R.O.,
A very nice FN Baby. I love the case, original or not.
Am I reading the serial number correctly as 61944? If so, it is quite an early example. According to Anthony Vanderlinden's excellent book on FN pistols, production of the Baby started back up in 1946 (about 50,000 were produced between 1932-1940). Vanderlinden's data permits a rough estimate of 1947 as the year when your gun was manufactured.
