Fn 1922 question
I recently acquired a 1922 fn in 7.65. It has black plastic fn grips.has what appears to be normal fn markings on it. I have read on this forum that when manufactured when they got to 100,000 they added a letter suffix and started over. My sereal number starts with an "a" and has 4 numbers only, the first being a 0 followed by 3 numbers below 400. "A03xx. Anybody know anything about this gun. It is in very good condition and has been taken care of. Thanks in advance

It says "cal 7mm.65". Really nothing more to say about it. Didnt I read somewhere that the earlier ones had plastic grips and then changed to wood. I'm thinking I have read everything on internet about the 7.65 and nowhere can I find a comment where someone has a letter in front of the serial number

Well i do know that it's referring to 32 ACP aka 7.65 Browning, although i remember that some were chambered in 7.65 French Long.

Thanks for the hookup with the e-book. It has a chart that says that the "E" with a star over it means it was inspected between 1924 and 1959. Still have no idea what the low serial number with letter in front means. Tks
