IIRC... Browning owned all of the copyrights for his weapons designs, but licensed the manufacture, so FN could have had a 1911 lookalike in 9mm, very much like the BHP that they licensed too. Just a thought, don't know how the license could have been enforced under the occupation, and what the occupiers said would go. If they said make these guns for us, or go to the camps.... I'm pretty sure they would have made the guns.
Nice find.
