1940 Belgian Army FN High Power Type 1 - Matching

Presented for your consideration is an exceptional 1940 Belgian Army FN Model 1935 High Power Pistol, a premier Type 1 variant featuring the original tangent rear sight. Recently imported from the United States, this specimen remains in a remarkably sharp 96% original factory condition, maintaining 100% factory original matching components and a mirror-bright bore. Notably, this firearm has no visible import marks, preserving its original aesthetic and historical integrity.

This particular example is distinguished by a highly unusual Nazi-occupation WaA140 proofed magazine that is serial-numbered to the pistol. Such a configuration is an extreme rarity for the era and suggests potential specialized issue to Nazi or SS Police organizations following the 1940 invasion of Belgium. Originally issued to Belgian NCOs, machine gunners, or tank crews, this High Power likely transitioned from the defense of Belgium to German service before being recovered as a G.I. war trophy and eventually making its way to Australia.

This is a rare opportunity for the local collector to acquire an investment-grade firearm with significant historical provenance, no import markings, and flawless mechanical function.
