Looks like something out of sci-fi.
Not only in the magazine and mechanism designs, the pistol grip also wouldn’t look out of place for a modern pistol in present times, and this was back when the 1911 was still the standard. He’s really ahead of his time. Especially considering he’s held onto that idea since the late 1940s and only built his first prototype in the 1960s. FN did take and examine a specimen.
On another note.
I’m also trying to find more info about this mysterious beast of a pistol that was being developed in Canada back in the early Cold War era. Looks like an upsized Browning Hi Power.

There’s not a lot of images of this thing and not a lot of info. Allegedly there’s a few surviving examples.
Not a lot of websites have any info.
I’d love to see Gun Jesus Ian of Forgotten Weapons talk about this weapon.
