Yugoslav FN1922

Hi All, I though i would start a new thread about guns with unusual markings.

I have this FN1922 but it is a little different this is what I have been able to find out. Yugoslav interior crest, the Cyrillic writing on the side seems to say State Property. the cal is 380 auto i think? and the chrome I have found on a few others so may be a factory option and the grips are made of horn. The serial no seems to put it at 1928/29vintage. if any of you chaps can add any info that would be cool.

Based on the fact that it's early, what do you think it's worth and would you consider selling it?

Hi Gareth
thanks for the offer but i don't want to sell.
As for value i paid £130 for it at beltring last year. the chap i got it from had a few and has for a couple of years, he sells lots of surplus on the floor outside his tent and has deacs inside. i dont know who he is but he is on the left hand side just over the road from all the dutch dealers & soldier of fortune.

Hi Andy,
No worries.
I now have 4 FN 1922 including 2 Yugos that were in the proof house 7 years ago and have just been reunited. They have consecutive certificate numbers.
One of them is identical to the the one in your pics.
