FNP-9 differences
Are the Belgian and US FNP-9s different guns? The two image below are from the Belgian and US sites respectively, and they are pretty different. --commando552 10:47, 17 May 2012 (CDT)

~added by m16m4.
- You are incorrect. According to 2 different sources (The Gun Digest Book of Modern Gun Values & the FNH USA website) the name is "FNP". --Zackmann08 14:18, 23 July 2012 (CDT)
