When the discussion turns to the history of small arms development, the conversation naturally centers on the contributions of Fabrique Nationale. The FN firm was founded by a consortium of gunmakers in 1889 in Herstal, Belgium, to better fulfill a major service rifle contract for the Belgian military. Over the decades, FN's reputation for innovative manufacturing processes, precise engineering and flawless quality quickly grew and attracted some of the finest minds in firearms engineering. Legendary gun designers like John Moses Browning and Dieudonne J. Saive relied on the engineers and craftsmen of FN to turn their futuristic visions into steel reality.
