In 1923 the government of the 'Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes' (later known as Yugoslavia) ordered 60,000 pistols from FN with 114mm barrels and eight round magazines. The quickest way to meet the demands involved lengthening the 1910 frame in order to accomodate the larger magazine and adapting the standard slide to cover the long barrel. To save expense FN developed a short tubular housing that attached to a modified 1910 slide by a bayonet fitting.
The Model 1910/22 was adopted by Belgium and the Netherlands in 7.65mm and by Yugolsavia in 9mm Short. It remained in production throughout the German occupation of Belgium during the Second World War, being used by the Germans as the 'Pistole 626 (b)'.
