I used to save seeds from the FM but always asked the variety; I ended up with red and green zebras, black krims and a really cool but rare San Marino (fantastic paste but not San Marzano) among others that always bred true enough for me; I don't sell seeds and am very frank that I don't "bag" if I share from my stash. Always ask the grower the actual name and then research if it's a hybrid if they don't share that with you. (I didn't start seeds this year so have a hybrid plant--Jet Star--I will clone but not grow from seeds.) BTW, the cheap seeds at Walmart and the dollar stores are nearly always open pollinated if you need some more to try again.
