All Semi-Automatic Pistols of Belgium

This is a child group of Semi-Automatic Pistols, collecting the Small Arms And Sidearms subcategory's semi-automatic pistols designed and manufactured in Belgium by Fabrique Nationale de Herstal, later FN Herstal: the early FN Browning M1900, Model 1903 and Model 1910 designed by John Browning for the Belgian firm, the later Browning Hi-Power, and the modern FN Five-seven and FN FNP families. With 7 attested members, this reflects Fabrique Nationale's own standing, alongside Beretta and Colt, as one of the handful of manufacturers whose pistol designs have been adopted as a standard sidearm by dozens of the world's militaries and police forces across more than a century.
