Similarities & Differences in FEG R9 and Bernardelli P-ONE

[Gun Master]

I was investigating the FEG R9 (Aka- Mauser 90) and the Bernardelli P-ONE (1st cousin of the P-018), when I got a virus alert for world.guns.ru.
After that I exited and did a virus scan.

Can anyone give related info on the two above guns (and perhaps the Browning BDM)? Thanks.

Perhaps you could explain why you think any of these guns are related? It would not have occurred to me. Of the three, I only have the Browning BDM.

I am just the opposite. I have the R9 and P-ONE both, but not the BDM, which I ran across in my browsing.
All 3 seem to have the basic Browning design. My exploration was stopped short.

They all have tipping barrels, sure, although I could not tell you if some have barrel lugs to lock into the slide or if they use a squared-off firing chamber to lock into the ejection port. I have not had my BDM apart in years, but I think it used the latter system. But almost everything in 9mm Para and up has used tipping barrels for decades. It is to pistols what the bolt action became to rifles.

I've had failures to feed on the R-9 and P-ONE.
Are they pieces of junk, to be gotten rid of, or not?
I don't want to waste time and money if they are poor quality.

Thanks for any good info.
