I believe this may be a model no. 1922 but am not sure. My Blue Book of Gun Values states thousands of these pistols were made for the German forces during occupation of Belgium. My book is a few years old so I cannot give you a current value but I am sure it would be worth more than $500 especially if sold at a gun show. I would hold onto both of these treasures.

They keep going up in value. The Belgian Browning pistols were the only foreign-made guns that went into German production while they occupied the factories where they didn't 'customize' the slide markings. The 1922 Brownings and the P35 Hi-Powers produced during German occupation had slide markings (except for proofmarks) in French that were identical to their pre-war and post-war pistols. This is evidence of the high regard that the Germans must have had for the Browning guns and the Liege factory.Some 1922's produced very early on during German occupation had inspector marks other than 140 (613 and 103), but from late 1941 through the end of occupation 140 was the only inspector mark you were going to find.The pistol shown is definitely a 1922. In German service, the.32 Browning 1922's were identified as Pistole 641(b) (The b stood for Belgium).
The 1922's in.380 were 626(b)'s and, just to round things out, the P35's were known as 640(b)'s.All branches of the military used the 1922's, but I understand that more were sent to the Luftwaffe than anywhere else.Last edited by Ronbo6; at 10:09 AM.Reason: Details added.
Hi, I'm new to shotgun world and I'm looking to get a ballpark value on a shotgun I own. I have posted a couple photos:details:Belgium Browning 12 gauge, serial # 101753left side of barrel says 'FULL 12 SPECIAL STEEL' 1 Kg 1 1 9 (sideways J.H, pic of something with PV under it, crown circle with ELG.
inside, oval with 12-70 inside)right side of barrel says 'Made in Belgium'left side of gun says 'FABRIQUE NATIONALE D'ARMES DE GUERRE HERSTAL BELGIQUE' BROWNING PATENT DEPOSEright side of gun just says 'PV' with a few etchingswood of gun is reconditioned, excellent shape.Thanks for any insight! The serial number that yougave dates to 1931. Is the safety infront of the trigger?The astrick (.) is the Browning mark for full choked barrels.The 'PV' in a circle(should have a rampant lion above it) is the proof mark that shows 150% voluntary over proof for smokless powder.Looking at the photos,the forend looks correct but I suspect that the square buttstock is a replacement.Value would be as a shooter. I think that I see a rib and the old style safety infront of the trigger gaurd. These are sort of offseting factors. I'd put the value in the $225-$300 area.CAUTION: Things may appear closer in the rear view mirror!
You'd probably get more answers if you started a new post on the I Love My Browning area. Be sure to tell us what gauge the gun is. A 920,000 gun in 16 ga would be a 30's gun and a 12ga with that serial number would be from the '20s.Also, the H under a star is the inspector's mark of Christophe Woit and he worked at the Liege Proof House from 1934 until 1968.
The barrel may be a replacement.The 'f' mark would indicate the gun was from 1927. That would jive with the 920,000 serial # of a 12ga gun.The flat grip is probably a replacement on a 1927 gun. The second series safety, in front of the trigger, would be correct for a pre-WWII A5 made after 1909.CAUTION: Things may appear closer in the rear view mirror!
