On October 9, 1953, FN shipped another sample .25 Browning to the company’s Morgan, Utah, offices for evaluation. This pistol, No. 329251, is all steel in a bright satin finish that looks like stainless steel, but it is not. It has the “nacrolac” imitation mother-of-pearl grip panels like those on the Renaissance model. Slide markings are of the type used since 1959, BROWNING ARMS COMPANY and MADE IN BELGIUM, in two lines. This proposed variation was ... rejected by Browning’s board of directors and now resides contentedly among the other 6.35 mm/.25 ACP FN/Colt/Browning automatic pistols in the author’s collection. This model, with FN slide markings and black plastic grips, was adopted by FN for sale outside the U.S.
