Cheers Jim, it's an incredible collection, I like to visit when I can. I happened to spot the trials semi auto on the wall, the FN49 is obviously a direct development of this prototype.
It's a fascinating design and it's potential is clear to see.

Years ago there was one in a shop here that had been modded to simulate a No5 bayonet: the guard had been swapped and the stakings which held it on gave the game away once the grips were removed. Probably the fate of a good many of them when the No5 was in demand and the No8 was not.
“There are invisible rulers who control the destinies of millions. It is not generally realized to what extent the words and actions of our most influential public men are dictated by shrewd persons operating behind the scenes.”
Edward Bernays, 1928
