		Wilniewczyc was later joined by Jan Skrzypinski, director of "Panstwowa Fabryka Karabinów" (State Rifle Factory) in Warsaw.

	1911 and Radom 35 comparisons - TheFiringLine Forums
		It was designed by Piotr Wilniewczyc and Jan Skrzypinski who used a lot of Colt/Browning design features (And said so, that the Browning designs of 1903 and 1911 were well proven and the patents had expired, leaving them available for development.
		They may also have had input from FN on BHP design progress, too.) but with tweaks of their own.
		The gun you see in production since 1935 was considerably reworked by Dieudonne Saieve at FN after Mr Browning's death and includes some 1911 details worked back in after the patents expired, kind of like Wilniewczyc and Skrzypinski were doing at Radom.
