From the pic it looks exactly like the royal armouries in Leeds. Maybe all history-of-weapons-based museums look the same

Yeah, this pic might be from the Royal Armouries in Leeds actually. The gun in Leeds is the same model and similar serial number, close in production. But the original .380 FN 1910 serial 19074 is supposed to be in the Heeresgeschichtliches Museum in Vienna.
