Curious Relics #1: FN 1900 The Great Grandfather to Modern Pistols

Much info that I was not aware of.

It was the pistols that were used by the Latvian revolutionaries in " the siege of Sidney Street" in London 1911. The "modern automatic pistols" the perps had were blamed for all the trouble in the siege.

We hear much the same today about so-called "assault weapons".

Some inventions withstand the test of time. Improvements in construction and material increase its viability but the principle stays the same.
