Fabrique nationale magazine

I am just learning to shoot and after trying several of my husbands guns I have decided his fabrique nationale is the one I like the best. I am hoping someone could help me find a second magazine. The gun has plastic grips, all black, FN on both grips, PB on the right side of the barrel, ambidextrous safety release/ de-cocker. It is a double, single action with a 13 round magazine. I would appreciate any help someone can provide as to where I could find another magazine.

13 round magazine/ has to be a High Power, like the 1911, there are High Power magzines galore. Try Triple K to start, Borwnell's, Midway, the list gos on and on.

Caution, Mococo.
Sorry, Ron, but a DA/SA marked PB is not a High Power.
It is most likely what is usually known as a Browning BDA .380, made for FN by Beretta.
I think it will take the same magazine as the parent Beretta Model 84.

If in the USA, Mococo, you could contact Browning Arms parts department.

Is it a .380?
If so, the "PB" is Pietro Beretta.........and the gun is a Browning BDA, in Europe its called the FN 140DA.

Any mag for the Browning BDA or Beretta 84 will work just fine. Beretta made these for FN.

Friends don't let friends use Triple K, USA or ProMag aftermarket mags.
