FN M1905

Common card · No. 259029

The Fabrique Nationale de Herstal (FN) Model 1905 (from its patent date) or FN Model 1906 (in European countries due to its date of manufacture) were pistols manufactured from 1906 to 1959 chambered in .25 ACP (6.35mm Browning). Described by John Walter as "the first truly successful 'pocket automatic' [pistol]", it was widely copied for 50 years, after its introduction, with Spanish gunmakers in the Eibar region making a large variety of unlicensed copies.
