chris40 ◊ 2008-04-05 22:35	This seems to be the front view of the FK, which ceased production in 1961 because it proved unreliable: Production was then transferred to the UK, which suggests that this is British-made, probably rebadged for export to Morocco (and elsewhere). -- Last edit: 2008-04-05 22:38:38
